Well, I woke up this morning extremely bloated. I'm not exactly sure why, but if it has something to do with the jicama I ate, I'm going to be so disappointed. That was my replacement for chips to have with my homemade guacamole. If all else fails, I'll just try to eat it early enough into the evening that I don't wake up bloated the next day? Or I guess I could find an alternative to my alternative...

Today was my first (technically 3rd, I guess, but 1st w/ Trainer Eric there) day without my pre-workout supplement. I have decided to stop taking it, because upon inspection of the ingredients, I saw that artificial flavors were included. It's kind of silly for me to make such an effort to cut those out of the foods I consume on a daily basis yet still subject my body to them every morning before I workout. Instead of taking a pre-workout supplement, I just get up earlier (4:15ish?) so my body has time to wake up too. Even though I wasn't as peppy as I normally am in the mornings, I still busted my tail, and it was kind of nice to know that it was just "me" doing it (rather than me and some fake energy)... Sorry, purple crack. You were good while you lasted, but I'm better off without you.

I don't really have much else to blog about today. I should probably go shower so I can get to work early, but that never sounds like fun :) Before I go...
