Fitness Challenge Day 2

Day 2 was a good day!  Still motivated and working towards my goal of being healthy.  I know it's only day 2, but I was thrown a challenge.  My stroller strides friends got together for lunch today, and since the location was chosen before we started fitness challenge, it was not so healthy.  To be exact, it was a burger joint with no healthy options.  I wanted to eat with my friends, so I took some sound advice and stopped at the Jason's Deli next door, grabbed a salad bar to-go, then hopped over to the burger joint and enjoyed my salad and the company of good friends!  Score for me!!  One of the girl's had her husband there.  He asked me where I got the salad, I told him "I cheated."  He said, "That doesn't sound like cheating, that sounds like winning!"  Yay!!  So here's the rest of my day:


Breakfast - Protein shake with a scoop of PB, I also had a cup of coffee with raw sugar and about 2 TBLS of chocolate carmel creamer.
Lunch - Jason's Deli Salad (veggies, 2 boiled eggs, pickle, 2 gingerbread mini muffins) I used the low fat ranch dressing
Snack - Greek Yogurt with strawberries, cutie orange, handful of almonds
Dinner - Half a spaghetti squash covered with spaghetti sauce (ground beef in the sauce)
Snack - Apple with dark chocolate PB


I also ran 3 miles.  I am very proud of those 3 miles for 2 reason.  Number 1, I didn't run until 8 pm, so the fact that I pushed myself at the end of the day when it would have been easy to skip was huge!  Number 2, after just 2 days of eating right I was able to shave over :30 off my pace time.  AWESOME!  Feeling good and pushing forward!
