I'm posting because its a good day. I feel like in general I tend to update blogs and facebook statuses and the like when thinks are shitty. But it shouldn't be that way. I should be able to talk about days when life is great as well.
Today was just overall good. I was somewhat productive - I mean, I could have gotten more done, but its better than some days where I just lie around in bed all day. I had a great day with food. I ate well and wasn't triggered to binge. And my body image was ballin'! Seriously, I woke up feeling pretty shitty about myself ecause last night had been another binge, but I still ate breakfast regardless, put on some clothes, looked in the mirror and thought "hey, I look damn good!" And I often have brief moments of thinking I look good, but this lasted all day, despite nourishing myself properly.
Anyways, I thought I would share my good day of food with you. :-) If you're not into this kind of thing, just a heads up now..... I won't be offended if you leave.
For breakfast I had a bowl of Nature's Path Flax Plus Pumpkin Raisin Crunch with a small sliced up banana and vanilla almond breeze.
Yes, I know its a lot of milk compared to the amount of cereal. I had already gotten the measuring cup out before I realized that I probably wouldn't need that much milk for the cereal, but then I heard my roommate in the hall so I frantically poured my milk so I could get out of the kitchen before she saw me. I'm kind of anti social, if I haven't mentioned yet. =/
After I got dressed and realized how sexy I was looking, I headed to school to get some homework done. I worked in the library for about 3 hrs before heading home. I could have done more, but I was just getting exhausted and wasn't getting as much accomplished, so I figured I had done enough.
Lunch was a Hemp Tortilla wrap filled with lots of hummus, broccoli, carrots, sesame seeds, and nutritional yeast, and more carrots on the side.

I stuffed so much in it that I couldn't get it closed! But it was good, nonetheless.
Later on I had two juicy oranges.
Later on I was definitely ready for dinner, but I had already planned in my mind what I wanted since I knew my roommates were going out and I would be able to use the kitchen. But they ended up going out much later than I had originally thought. So to hold myself over until they left, I had a Raw Revolution Chocolate Coconut Bar.
I love these bars! There are so few ingredients in them and they are all unprocessed, so you can taste and feel each nut and ingredient within it. And when you're reading the list of ingredients on the back, I guarantee you that you can recognize every one of them, and would all easily be something you could find in your grocery store. But its still sweet and tastes almost like a candy bar, but satiating at the same time!
Once my roommates finally left, I cooked dinner, and it was even better than anticipated.
Half a small butternut squash, 2 parsnips, and cooked sprouted mung beans. Mmm!
Anyways, I hope everyone else is having a nice weekend. :-)
