Last night as I was doing my homework, my mom told me that there would be a lot of snow today. I laughed at her and said that there would probably be 2 inches at most. Boy was I wrong. What can I say, mothers do know best.

I was also sure to take pictures… while at school *gasp*.

 

For those of you who are curious as to how I did on yesterday’s 6k, I did pretty awesome I set yet another PR!

Healthy Talk

Ok so many of my friends have been doing a health related survey sooooo I decided to join in. Fun right?

Here we go:

1. What did you eat for breakfast?

I kept it simple this morning and had some cereal.

2. How much water do you drink a day?

I drink around 60 oz of water. I should probably work on drinking more though…

3. What is your current favorite workout?

Well, I do not consider erging fun… so maybe crossfit?

4. How many calories did you eat today?

Hmmmm… well I do not count calories. I am guessing that I eat around 2000-2500 calories a day (which is a lot). I just make sure to eat whole and nutritious foods, rather than calorie counting. During rowing season, I eat more due to the intense workouts. During the summer, I probably eat around 1500 calories a day.

5. What are your favorite healthy snacks?

Good Greens bars. I am in love with those bars! I also like eating chobani (greek yogurt)

6. What do you usually eat for lunch?

I always have a turkey sandwich, a Good Greens bar, and some of Annie’s bunny cookies. I am pretty boring with my lunches.

7. What is your favorite body part to train?

My legs. I have always had strong legs which makes leg focused workouts (such as squats or lunges) easy for me. My arms are a different story…

8. What is your least favorite body part to train?

Well, I guess I kind of already answered this in #7!

9. What are your bad food cravings?

Anything with a lot of sugar. Oreos are my biggest weakness. Oh and cookie dough…

10. Do you take vitamins or supplements?

I used to… but I ran out and I have been too lazy to get more…

11. How often do you eat out?

This is a hard question… it really depends. Sometimes my family only goes out once a week… and sometimes we go out three times a week. When we do go out, it is usually at Panera Bread or Jason’s Deli. Nothing cray cray like McDonald’s or BK.

12. Do you eat fast food?

I used to eat fast food, but now I find most of it disgusting. When I have to eat at Micky D’s or BK I usually get a salad or a yogurt parfait. Sometimes, if I’m feeling real cray cray, I might eat a breakfast sandwich from Mickey D’s. So to answer the question, not really.

13. Who is your biggest supporter?

I think that I am my biggest supporter… strange. I usually am the one to keep my family on track (Ev loves me for that… hahahaha not really…). My mom does help talk me out of some foods though… especially ice cream

14. Do you have a gym membership?

Does the boathouse count?

15. How many hours of sleep do you get a night?

During school nights I get around 7 hours of sleep. Lately, I have been getting 9 hours (hence the very few blog posts last week) of sleep. During the weekend I usually get around 9 hours of sleep each night. I know that I should be getting 10 hours (for being a teenager)… but who has enough time for that?!

16. Do you have a “cheat” day?

No. I just treat myself whenever I feel that its necessary (for example: birthdays or hanging out with friends).

17. Do you drink alcohol?

Hahaha! No. My friends and family know that I am very against drinking alcohol. I don’t mind if other people drink it, but there is no way that I am! First of all, I am not old enough to drink. Second of all, why would I want to lose control of myself? I am crazy enough without alcohol… so why do I need it? Lastly, there is a ton of fat and toxins in alcohol. No thanks.

18. Do you have a workout buddy?

My doggies and sometimes my brother

19. What is the best thing that has changed about your life since committing to a healthy lifestyle?

Confidence. I love how much energy and strength I have now. I have also improved a lot in rowing, which makes me veeeery happy I guess I am just a happier person!

20. What is the last healthy thing you did?

Hmmm… drinking green tea?

Now I want to hear from you! Let me know what your answers are for some of these questions!
