Makeshift Chipotle

Oh the joys of being female. We get to deal with raging hormones, crazy food cravings, and men who just don't understand ;)

Anyway, today my female food urges kicked in and I could not stop thinking about a Chipotle bowl. It consumed my thoughts all day today, isn't that horrible? Sadly, there is no Chipotle here in the Fort Bragg area so I was forced to improvise. And improvise I did! More on that later though ;) 

Breakfast
Bet you thought these would be perfect protein pancakes, huh?! Nope. They're coconut flour pancakes. I thought I'd try something new. And I'm really glad I did because coconut flour is awesome! 

Lunch
Lunch was leftovers from the Rudino's we ordered from yesterday. And um, who wants to see pictures of leftovers? Yuck.

Dinner
I made my own version of the Chipotle burrito bowl...and it was ridiculawesome!

Ps. The origin of the word stems from this video: 


Ridiculawesome is my new favorite word by the way. Especially when it describes delicious bowls of dirty rice, black beans, grilled chickens, creamy avocados, corn salsa, tomato salsa and a dallop of Greek yogurt on top. MMMMM...

 My own little chipotle station. But much healthier ;)
And the amazing ridiculawesome aftermath.

Workout
I didn't end up running 10 miles today, I just wasn't feeling it. I'm psyching myself up for tomorrow though! I WILL RUN 10 miles tomorrow. I can do it. And I will. You watch me. 

Instead, I walked on a 10% incline at 4.0 on a treadmill and worked on my chest and triceps today with my fellow business partner slash awesome trainer friend ;)

5x5 chest presses
5x5 chest presses (heavy)
5x5 tricep dips
5x5 tricep exts
10 push/dips with no rest (I'll have to explain this one)
3x10 lower cable crossovers
3x10 upper cable crossovers

I ended with a nice stretching sesh. My fave.

And that's all folks. I'm off to eat more chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream and watch The Bachelor. But first, I have to get through Wheel of Fortune. Which I happen to secretly love!

Oh...and stay tuned, I have a pretty cool announcement to make. To give you a hint it has to do with these ;)

    I know what you mean by the "blessings" of being female... add stress on top of that, and you've got one big whine-o like me!
