I feel bad. I've been neglecting this blog as of late, but I think I have a good excuse. I'm 29 days away from my wedding, so as you can imagine my mind is elsewhere, but I'm trying to maintain my healthy eating habits while grappling with all that needs to get done.
I recently spent a whirlwind week traveling. It's difficult enough eating a vegetarian low-carb diet, but try doing it while traveling - in Florida no less. Needless to say it was challenging. I was able to at least find eggs for breakfast, but lunches and dinners consisted of Indian food (yummy) and garden burgers. The Indian food wasn't so bad, but of course it had a lot of cream in it. At any rate I felt like crap by the time I got home. Of course, I was only home for less than 24 hours and had to hop on another plane for Seattle - this time for my wedding shower and bachelorette party.
Now it was a party and it was for me - so I did what any girl in my situation would do - I started drinking at 11 am. Mimosas - I love mimosas, but again not healthy.
By Monday morning I felt like I'd been run over. I should state that I did manage to get two workouts in last week, but I'm not sure I can count the one in Florida - the gym at my hotel was a closet with a broken bike and an equally crappy treadmill. I ran on that treadmill, but still...
Friday before I hopped on my next plane I managed to make it to my gym and had a fantastic workout. Go me!! But of course I negated any of the hard work by drinking all weekend.
So, by the time I stepped on the scale Monday morning I was terrified. I still have to fit into my wedding dress after all. Not to fear though - I didn't really gain any weight and I'm back in healthy mode with workouts and healthy eating.
Last night I made asparagus coconut milk soup. Recipe to follow.
