yoga boxing running vitamins!

last semester i was a hot mess.

this semester i started out with 2 sessions of bikram in a week (so far)

1 session of boxing and 1 mile of running

loads of walking

i also plan to eat my vitamins and my iron pills

vitamins are key when your diet is lacking...and i'd estimate that at least 70% of city-dwelling 20-30 something have a diet that is lacking in the required amount of daily nutrients.

so my vitamins will be:

1-2 - multi-vitamin
1 - iron pill
1-2- biotin pills
1 - b-12 vitamin

now - if anyone knows me at all, they will know that i hate, hate hate pills. i hate them. i'll be sick for 2 wks before even attempting to swallow a pill.

that being said - health trumps dislike.

now - on to the meals of the day. starting with yesterday:

1) - nonfat plain yogurt, blueberries, granola = win
2)- 6" veggie sub on wheat - with some cheese and baked lays = win
3) - small piece of glazed baked salmon, pesto pasta salad, cucumbers = reasonable win post 90 min bikram session
4) - bag of chocolate covered toffee!!! - fail!

today so far has been:

a couple spoonfuls of plain nonfat yogurt, a few almonds and a serving of wasabi peas..weird, not full of nutrients, but not awful either.

will go for a run later.

its important to stay healthy. one day i plan to hopefully have some babies...since i am already 28, with no future baby daddy insight, i've sadly accepted the fact that i most likely won't have children till post-30. Thus, it will already be harder - and it will be even more challenging if i am deficient in the important vitamins - especially iron.

i can't control my love life - but at least i can control the healthiness of my incubator.

keep this in mind female readers - eat your vitamins! if not for you, then for your future babies!

feel free to laugh. i don't care - it's important!
