Day 11: Oh the people that you meet!

Managed to haul my butt outta bed at 6 this morning so as to actually get my workout done and rev the metabolism for the day.  Woot!


Exercise:
Wii Fit 1 hour, ran 8.5 miles, burned 442 calories.  Biggest burn yet!
Funny thing about running on the Wii, you see all sorts of interesting people when out for your daily "run".  Sure you pass the friends and family members who have created Wii characters so it's not too shocking when Fox or one of the boys waves at me as they passes me by, but today I also ran with Mario, Luigi, Genghis Khan, Jesus, and Mr. Bean (I think Bear fancies himself some sort of Nintendo god, you should see the cast of characters he's created for our electronic universe).   


Crossfit:
Rest day.

Breakfast:
25 oz. Pellegrino with orange
Decaf with cream and cinnamon (no more caffeine withdrawal headache thank you very much!)
2 hunks of cheddar
V8 (was running out the door to hang with Lacey, so a mostly liquid breakfast this a.m.)


Lunch:
25 oz. Pellegrino
Chicken fingers

Snack:
2 fruit leathers
25 oz. water

Dinner:
Hurry curry over spinach (sauté apple and onion in butter till semi tender, add a head of cauliflower chopped small and cook a couple of minutes more. Sprinkle with 1-2 T. flour add curry, cumin, garlic, ginger, pepper and cook until fragrant.  Add 1 c. chicken broth, 1 c. heavy cream, and all the meat from a deli chicken.  Cook 10 minutes or so, cooking till heated thru.  Add a cup or so of frozen peas and cook a few minutes more.  Adjust seasonings to taste and add broth if sauce is too thick.  Serve over brown rice or raw spinach). 
1/2 a bottle of Fat Tire (while making dinner)
25 oz. water
Using raw spinach as a base to any sauce instead of rice or noodles... rocks!  This is my new favorite thing.


All in all a good day!
