On the road.

March 12, 2013 Comments : 2

I’m currently in Baltimore (well a suburb outside of Baltimore) for three weeks of training for my new job. Call me sappy, but this is the longest time my husband and I have spent apart since before we were married…it’s actually been since my college days at Virginia Tech. Considering I’ll be 24 on Wednesday (yikes!), I’d say it’s been quite a while since we’ve been apart. 😉

I usually just ignore my ‘routine’ when I travel for work because I rarely have been gone over 3-4 days at a time. Knowing that I am going to be away for three whole weeks this time, I decided I was going to stick to as normal of a routine as possible…meaning healthy food and fitness. Luckily, I’m staying at a Residence Inn, so there’s a full kitchen. I went to Wegman’s and stocked up on my normal, healthy food that I eat at home. It’s actually really nice to have the option of cooking, since restaurant food often has so much sodium and calories! I now have a kitchen full of Greek yogurt, hummus, spinach, tofu, oatmeal, bananas, and brown rice protein. I’ve always bought whey protein, but I finally found brown rice protein, so I figured I’d try it. It’s definitely no vanilla flavored whey protein, but it’s really good for you and completely natural, which I like!

The hotel also has a really nice 24-hour gym, so I have no excuse to not work out every day! I actually ventured into nearby Towson and tried a Hot Vinyasa class. I’m super loyal to my favorite yoga studio in Norfolk, so I was skeptical about a new studio. Since I don’t really have a choice for three weeks, I’d rather try a different studio than not do yoga at all! I went to a regular Hot Vinyasa class, but the instructor was actually a substitute who usually teaches Hot POWER Vinyasa…so to put it nicely, she kicked everyone’s butts…big time! She was even afraid that no one would come back next week, when she substitutes again. Needless to say, it was a great workout!

I know I’ve only been gone one day, but I feel like keeping my routine is helping me enjoy the trip a bit more. I will admit that I do not like being away from home, but focusing on being healthy takes my mind off the fact that I’m going to be away for three weeks. My husband is going to come up and visit over the weekend, because we literally can’t stand to be apart that long. I’m okay with that. 🙂

Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful Last week to this week ➡️ We’re SO grateful for a quick recovery from pneumonia — having a sick child is scary enough, but to top it off with no space in our local hospitals’ PICU and being flown to Asheville, you can imagine we were beyond stressed last week 😩 So so grateful she’s back to normal and on International Women’s Day, it felt like a good time to celebrate Brynn 🥰 Thank you to all of our friends & family who reached out, lent a helping hand and kept us in your thoughts & prayers ❤️

Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — Prolon Day 3 | The day started off really good — I felt very clear-minded and awake this AM 🥳 Truly, I was nervous because today was a very low-cal day and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel 😅 I did grab a plain iced espresso because my energy was depleting super quickly and that def helped 👌🏼 After lunch, though, I started to hate depriving myself of real food and disliked that I couldn’t push myself in my workouts like I usually do 😒 After dealing with three kids who clearly woke up on the wrong side of the bed 😆, slicing my hand open with a knife and being cranky and irritable because I’ve been hangry for 3 days, I caved. And sorry, not sorry ✌🏼 I just wanted a dang salad and some protein so I can lift heavy things 💪🏼 Moral of the story, listen to your body and what it needs. And maybe try a 1-2 day cleanse/fast because that’s about all mine could handle 🤪
