I started the day today earlier than I have in long long time. I woke up at 5:30 for none other than a workout. The feeling of waking up and getting a workout done is one of my favorite feelings, and I think it is worth doing if possible. As soon as the alarm went off I did NOT want to get up. But I said to myself “see how you feel once you are at the gym and if you dont want to stay, you can come back”. Of course, I stayed!
After my long elliptical workout, I headed to the Club Lounge of my hotel and quickly fueled up with this breakfast:
A hearty piece of wheat toast with strawberry jam, a hard boiled egg, another on the side, and some fruit. Coffee too!
I ran around at a client all morning like a chicken with my head cut off. I was so busy and SO hungry by the time it was lunch time that I was literally slurring my words. Does that ever happen to you? Just before lunch, I grabbed an apple from my bag so that I could get something in my system.
Lunch was at Bread and Company. I ordered 1/2 a curried chicken sandwich and a cup of the Turkey Chili. It was delicious!
At around 5pm I went back to the Club Lounge to grab some appetizers while I continued to do work. I picked at the various fruits, veggies, dried fruit, cheese/crackers, etc.
And for dinner ordered room service. Garden Salad + Hummus Plate. I only ate about 1/2 because….
I wanted this! Starbucks Ice Cream Sundae from the room service menu. Yes please.
It was the perfect size… not too big, not too small.
Today was one of those days that I got so frustrated with traveling. All I wanted when I got back today was to cook something for myself. I was too tired to go out and search for something in my rental car and in an unknown city and the room service menu is not the greatest i’ve seen. However, I tried to stay positive and look at the good decisions I was able to make (aka a long workout, relatively healthy choices).
Tomorrow I’ll have a pretty laid back day in terms of work so hopefully I can explore the city a little!
Goodnight






Sounds like another success day of travel. I wish I got to travel for work, but unfortunately I just get angry people telling me that everything is my fault! (i work in a call center) Hope your travels this week are going well.
I havent seen you post so I was wondering how your trip was/is going!
