Becoming a "food snob" and Pressing harder

Tuesday, August 21, 2012

I have seriously spoiled my tastebuds. I thought I was craving chocolate- but when I went to the tuckshop, I realised I didn't want a cadbury chocolate. Only a Lindt.

Yikes. I am such a princess. Sadly I am a full blown food-snob. I don't want to make others feel bad EVER- yet, I want to tell EVERYONE how awesome it feels to eat REAL FOOD and love your body for what it is. Not everyone sees it that way no matter how much I try to not "preach"

Had 2 good workouts today. Core work in the morning, and cycling just under 5 miles 20mins after work. I am excited to start compiling a workout plan to ensure I get all the muscle groups I need in my training. I need some sort of guide to say that I am finished instead of ambling about until the time runs out.

The cycling was tough to get through- but I held onto "I do not give up. I press harder.". It's my new mantra for all things difficult. I. Do. Not. Give. Up. I. Press. Harder.

    Oops....I didn't mean to sound like we didn't have Lindt, we do. We don't have a lot of Cadbury options, just the eggs, a couple of other random stuff. Sorry if my comment was misleading!

    We have Lindt here in the States (someone above indicated we don't). I'm in Georgia and they sell it in the regular grocery store.

I agree with you, if you're going to eat it, eat the best! I only go for the good stuff that I really want, I pass on all the diet desserts.

I'm going to steal your mantra if you don't mind! :)

    I am a fan of Lindt myself. But we mostly have just Cadbury eggs here in Texas/the States. I do love those Cadbury Eggs though. But only get them once a year around Easter. Hehe.

Good luck with the exercise plan.

Have a good one!

    I use that mantra yesterday, I wanted to slow from a jog to a walk but knew my body could keep going. It was my brain saying to slow down. I just kept on running! Go us!
