I'm sure you ran these past days... update the blog. :D BTW, that chick's butt is mesmerizing me as I type this. :)

OPoC - you have been pretty prompt this week, is blogspot back in the firewall?

I will update Tuesday and Wednesday's now.. cos I have a breather from work. :)

Lover of Rice said...

Choc - I took your advice and got some readymade breakfast home. So, its not as bad.. as long as I remember to pick it up. :)

No, blog still not allowed. But I make a draft in my gmail with all I eat, and since I dislike having drafts around, at the end of the day I remember to post it. :) Oooh, I'm glad you're having breakfast now (reading from your comment to Choco-Lover) otherwise I'd get on your case about only coffee on Tuesday. How would you have energy to do anything with only coffee? We should breakfast like kings, lunch like a commoner, and dine like a pauper. ;)

LoveMyTravel said...

Agree on breakfast like king comment!! I could faint if I don't have breakfast:) People at work make fun of me for my morning appetite for breakfast:) Hopefully its not too much.
LOR- Great job on the workout and great job on starting on breakfast. keep in on!
Yup. OpoCCtg- The chick's butt is surely a eye distraction. I just wonder what people at work must be thinking of what I glare at when I have this website on ( which is often:) hehehe

This week's diet and workout are awesome so far, LoR. Keep that going!
I should take inspiration from you on breakfast. Will get some stuff for on the go this weekend.

Oooh, love your hearty breakfast on Sat. (I think you overestimate the cals in an omlette though..) Great job on the speed of your 5 miler. You're getting faster and better!! Yay! Was Sunday's brunch at Flat Top Grill? Coz it sounds like a delicious FTG meal. ;) Again, I doubt your 4 mirchi bhaji are *that* calorific. :) But probably better to overestimate than under.

Lover of Rice said...

Sat and Sun breakfasts were really good.. yumm yumm. Yeah.. Sun was at FTG! And I must have overestimated the omelette but it did look a little evil, cos it was yummy!! :)

if I do not put a cap on the mirchi, I would have ate all the 10 of them! Hence the overestimation! :D
