Bad Mood = Great Workout!

Tuesday was a crazy day. I woke up in a really bad mood which doesn't make for a pleasant day. I will tell you one thing, being angry really does make me have a fantastic workout! I ran like I've never run before and it felt great.

Let's take a look at Tuesdays eats!

Breakfast

The ever filling, 2 scrambled eggs with a ton of hot sauce:


Lunch

I wasn't all that hungry for lunch but I knew I needed to eat something before I did my lunch time workout.

Strawberry, banana Chobani yogurt. I will say I was not a fan of this flavor. It tasted a bit off to me so I'm going to stick with the peach from now on.


With a couple cinnamon teddy grahams:)


Granny Smith apple.


Dinner

Patrick and I stopped at Ceres so we could talk and grab a bite to eat.

I had a side salad with the house dressing. I love this dressing it is so good and has a ton of flavor!



Cup of buffalo chicken soup.


Ceres always does a great job of decorating. Check out just a few of the St. Patrick's day decorations:



The last part of dinner was some fettuccine noodles with broccoli.


Lot's of broccoli!



Exercise

I'm still working on the Couch to 5K running program. I'm doing better than I thought I would and have hopes of actually being able to run the entire 5K May 1.

Hope everyone had a wonderful day! I'm happy to say my bad mood lifted and I went to bed in a much better state of mind:)

Question

Do you tend to have better workouts when you are in a not so good mood?

I totally do. Bring on the angry girl music and I'm working my little heart out!

  5. I love those green shoes! :P Adding green broccoli is a great way to get veggies i while celebrating St. Patrick's Day.

    I actually tend to blow off exercise when I'm angry (I know, bummer), but luckily I'm usually pretty content :) I hope tomorrow is a better morning for you!

  7. I have a better workout when I'm frustrated for sure. And I feel so much calmer afterwards.
