Bad Mood = Great Workout!
March 17, 2010
Tuesday was a crazy day. I woke up in a really bad mood which doesn’t make for a pleasant day. I will tell you one thing, being angry really does make me have a fantastic workout! I ran like I’ve never run before and it felt great.
Let’s take a look at Tuesdays eats!
Breakfast
The ever filling, 2 scrambled eggs with a ton of hot sauce:
Lunch
I wasn’t all that hungry for lunch but I knew I needed to eat something before I did my lunch time workout.
Strawberry, banana Chobani yogurt. I will say I was not a fan of this flavor. It tasted a bit off to me so I’m going to stick with the peach from now on.
With a couple cinnamon teddy grahams:)
Dinner
Patrick and I stopped at Ceres so we could talk and grab a bite to eat.
I had a side salad with the house dressing. I love this dressing it is so good and has a ton of flavor!
Cup of buffalo chicken soup.
Ceres always does a great job of decorating. Check out just a few of the St. Patrick’s day decorations:
The last part of dinner was some fettuccine noodles with broccoli.
Lot’s of broccoli!
Exercise
I’m still working on the Couch to 5K running program. I’m doing better than I thought I would and have hopes of actually being able to run the entire 5K May 1.
Hope everyone had a wonderful day! I’m happy to say my bad mood lifted and I went to bed in a much better state of mind:)
Question
Do you tend to have better workouts when you are in a not so good mood?
I totally do. Bring on the angry girl music and I’m working my little heart out!

It depends on how distracted I am….sometimes it can really help though!

I love both eggs and hot sauce and angry workouts. I swear, exercise is Prozac to me.

I love those green shoes! 😛 Adding green broccoli is a great way to get veggies i while celebrating St. Patrick's Day.
I actually tend to blow off exercise when I'm angry (I know, bummer), but luckily I'm usually pretty content 🙂 I hope tomorrow is a better morning for you!

I have a better workout when I'm frustrated for sure. And I feel so much calmer afterwards.
