Okay here goes!\u00a0 Last night we left <abbr class='c2c-text-hover' title='Stick Fighting'>SF<\/abbr> a little late and after we walked Rocks, it was after 10pm, pushing 10:30.\u00a0 I put on my jammies, washed my face and then crawled into bed and chatted with Scott while listening to boxer snores in the background.\u00a0 Then it was 11:10 and past my bedtime so I called it a night.<\/p>\n<p>I know how jealous you are of the OHC night life right now. <img src='\/images\/wink.gif' alt=';)' \/><\/p>\n<p>I did sleep in a bit this morning and got up close to 7:30am.\u00a0 I took care of Rocks and then changed into running clothes.\u00a0 Another cool morning today so running skirts were out.\u00a0 I did 3.5 miles at a crazy slow pace, 11:25\/mile or something.

I was surprised since normally yogurt + granola, while yummy doesn&#8217;t last too long in my bellah. Which is why I will eat that if it&#8217;s a late morning because I&#8217;ll still be hungry for lunch and it won&#8217;t throw off my schedule too much.<\/p>\n<p>Today however, it held me over very well! A later lunch on Tuesday isn&#8217;t a big deal since we have <abbr class='c2c-text-hover' title='Muay Thai'>MT<\/abbr> late afternoon and we eat dinner after class. Today&#8217;s lunch was a bit different! Since I wasn&#8217;t super hungry, I wanted a more snack type of lunch and to be able to pick at things.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/ohc-07-14-09_veggies.jpg\" data-rel=\"attachment-image-0\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-7004\" title=\"Broccoli, carrots, cucumber, crackers \" src=\"http:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/ohc-07-14-09_veggies-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"Broccoli, carrots, cucumber, crackers \" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" srcset=\"https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/ohc-07-14-09_veggies-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/foodembrace.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/07\/ohc-07-14-09_veggies.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I made a snack plate:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Kashi roasted veggie crackers<\/li>\n<li>365 wheat crackers<\/li>\n<li>Cucumber<\/li>\n<li>Carrot<\/li>\n<li>Broccoli<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>To dip into some hummus.
