I sometimes buy the cartons of egg whites just so that I can have more whites. I am one of the few that actually likes the white better than the yolk. <br />Jess, I think the change of season makes it harder too. We are waking up from the winter and our bodies know it's time to move again.KT80https://www.blogger.com/profile/16684403251453206458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156853764801606718.post-34192396868965084922011-05-18T07:04:10.467-04:002011-05-18T07:04:10.467-04:00I think my favorite post-workout dinner is a chees...I think my favorite post-workout dinner is a cheeseburger with a lot of greens. Then I get my protein, a little bit of calcium and lots of crunch in my greens and toasted bread. Scrambled eggs are my go-to meal when I don't have a lot of time or I forget to thaw some ground beef. <br /><br />When I run or bike in the morning, I seem to often end up at one of the local coffee shops and so my post-workout drink is often coffee and a big glass of water. Perhaps not the best thing, but it does taste really good!Magdalenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18209761826897063634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156853764801606718.post-10091351798602105632011-05-16T12:04:17.425-04:002011-05-16T12:04:17.425-04:00I'm having the hardest time with my eating lat...I'm having the hardest time with my eating lately too!??!<br />When I have time to thaw meat and shop fresh veggies, my favorite is always marinated chicken breast on the grill with steamed broccoli or asparagus.<br />I've tried the protein powder, but prefer just plain choc milk after long runs.Run with Jesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00051037584723266364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156853764801606718.post-56769266763991359372011-05-15T19:55:44.327-04:002011-05-15T19:55:44.327-04:00Hi Christy, thanks!

I had wanted my first race ever to be at Disney, in memory of my Dad, but it didn't work out that way. I figure my first 1/2 marathon is a big accomplishment too. ;) They are expensive, and certainly not something I will do on a regular basis, but I can't wait to get my official race shirt!!! Your running recovery drink sounds yummy! I think the sweetness of chocolate milk would just encourage me to want more sugar, and I definitely don't need that encouragement!KT80https://www.blogger.com/profile/16684403251453206458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156853764801606718.post-74103475033044085512011-05-15T18:35:09.383-04:002011-05-15T18:35:09.383-04:00Hi!

I am also a big fan of chocolate milk but also lately protein smoothies with almond milk, peanut butter and a frozen banana with chocolate or vanilla protein powder. Yummy!

I am excited to run this race, and if I stick to my training I will have no problem at all even though I am not were I wanted to be at this point.KT80https://www.blogger.com/profile/16684403251453206458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156853764801606718.post-25100341343699705352011-05-15T16:55:57.929-04:002011-05-15T16:55:57.929-04:00Hi!

I think it might be best for me to stick with my soy milk and vanilla protein powder, which I really do enjoy!KT80https://www.blogger.com/profile/16684403251453206458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3156853764801606718.post-43202276505373868282011-05-15T12:37:00.563-04:002011-05-15T12:37:00.563-04:00I have gotten hooked on having chocolate milk afte...I have gotten hooked on having chocolate milk after my long runs. I'm pretty sure it is because I usually stop by the convenience store for a bag of ice for my ice bath, and the little bottles of chocolate milk are right there too (in the super nifty Toy Story bottles, LOL).<br />If I have time, I love making lots of veggies to go with dinner. Steamed spinach, steamed asparagus, grilled corn on the cob... So tasty!<br /><br />It sounds like you had a really good workout. I like that index cards idea... I'm still having a hard time with eating too much junk, so maybe I'll try that trick. :)Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05790614672254668087noreply@blogger.com
