A Good Start



Happy August! Can you believe that the summer is almost over? I can hear grade school children whining everywhere. 

This was my first summer as an adult. No school, no internships, no freedom. But, no complaints either. 

Anyway, I told you in my last post that I wanted to start blogging again to keep me accountable on my road to better health. So, here I am, blogging. I'm a little rusty but it'll kick into full gear soon enough.

Breakfast started with a green smoothie!


I haven't done green smoothies in a while but I'm incredibly happy to be adding them back in. 

I've been making them a little differently. Instead of all fruits and greens, I've been adding hemp protein powder and green powder. I'm not entirely sure how I feel about these additions. But, for now, they are making regular appearances in my smoothies. 


Work got the best of me today. I ended up eating a Clif bar around 2pm as lunch. 


I'm not proud of it, but its better than nothing. 

I came home at a reasonable hour and ate the first thing that I saw-- some bread and hummus. I was relaxing on the couch when I got a visitor! Rishab (my brother) and my mom drove in to visit!


Lovely.

It was a fun surprise. They went out to eat while I painted my nails. (Yes, I chose painting my nails over going to dinner with them. Don't judge.) When they got home, I hit the gym for a 30 min treadmill workout. I got home close to 10pm and stretched, chatted and snacked on some cold watermelon. 


Thank goodness for that green smoothie this morning. Without it, my day would have been severely lacking in nutrients. And, to tell you the truth, without having written up this blog post, I would have never noticed.
