Today (rest day)

B: small slice of frittata, coffee
S: banana
L: chicken lettuce wrap at PF Changs
S: 2 squares dark chocolate, some yogurt
D: Asparagus/mushroom/onion saute with some roast pork

Part of me wants to cut back on food for rest days, but my coach slaps my hands when I do that. I can certainly tell the difference in my performance the next day when I DO cut back on calories on rest days (and not in a good way).

B: egg whites, corn tortilla, spinach, 3 turkey breakfast sausages, strawberries, coffee
I started feeling really sick while I was eating. I've been sort of off all week, but this was bad. Then I went to the dentist and found out I need a graft procedure, probably as a result of the Invisalign braces I had. By this time, I had to go see a client at a school. No exercise for me today.
L: tuna in oil on a 6 inch whole wheat pita, an orange
S: piece of spelt bread with hummus, lots of water
D: scallops seared in olive oil and a little butter on a bed of green beans marinated in oil and white vinegar, whole wheat cous cous
I have to lead a ride tomorrow and still feeling bad, though not like this morning. Not looking forward to a 1.5 hour drive, riding in the heat, and hanging out for dinner. Hope some sleep will help.
