Craving exercise in the morning?!

by Lisa on July 8, 2010 · 0 comments

I stayed up a little late last night…Dane Cook, Vicious Circle Tour, was on HBO Comedy and I always think it’s hilarious. Couldn’t help myself.

So, I decided that I would go ahead and sleep in this morning because I figured I needed the extra sleep.

I shocked myself though. Woke up about 20 minutes before my alarm was scheduled to go. I got up, went to the bathroom, then came back and laid down. I was laying in bed and my body was just begging me to get back up and go for a jog. I remember thinking “Who is this!?” I have NEVER felt the  URGE to exercise in the morning. Maybe my challenge is already working. So, I listened and me and Eddie got up for a 3 mile jog or so! The weather was nice and cool and it felt GREAT.

So, I am still loving my hair and for some reason I’m craving to go even shorter. I saw this haircut on A Foodie Stays Fit and loved it. I emailed it to my hair girl and asked her if she thought it would work for me (hair type/face shape). This possibly could be my next haircut in a couple of months. We shall see! Much more daring :)

 

Isn't she pretty?!

After running and showered, I was craving something light since I had eaten a bigger dinner last night.

Enter the Green Smoothie.

Lisa’s Green Smoothie

1 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 scoop Jay Robb Chocolate Protein Powder
1 banana
2 handfuls of spinach
1 tbsp Crunchy peanut butter

Tasty and hit the spot!

So, Brittany @ A Healthy Slice of Life left me the Sunshine Award. Whoohoo, I love these! Thanks Brittany! I just found her blog a week or so ago and am loving it so far.

So, now, I’m passing this award on to 5 blogs that make me smile…

  • Melissa @ MelissaNibbles: I love her sarcastic style and her honesty. She never censors herself or her opinions. Gotta love that!
  • Melissa @ Mellisa’s Running Wild: She’s inspiring and funny. She’s recently lost 55 lbs and has 40ish more to go and it’s been amazing to follow her along the journey.
  • Teri @ A Foodie Stays Fit: Teri’s the girl above with the rockin haircut. She has a page full of her haircuts throughout the years and I’ve never seen a woman who looks good with literally EVERY hairstyle. I have major hair envy!
  • Courtney @ A Sweet Tooth, Sweet Life: Love her blog. She has great recipes and is literally a ball of sunshine.
  • Holly @ Greek Yogurt @ Apple Slices: B/c she’s hosting her first giveaway! She’s making a goodie bag full of things she loves and those are always the BEST giveaways!

Should I go shorter?!

Ha ha- I think I automatically have to watch a Dane Cook special every time I see that it’s on… and have seen each one at least three times. But it cracks me up EVERY time…

Loving the hair and congrats on the award! It is a great feeling to wake up wanting to exercise isn’t it.

The cut is so cute. It would look great on you. I don’t think I’ve ever woken up with a craving to run. I kind of make myself get up and get out the door.

aw, you are so nice! You could TOTALLY rock that hair cut! You will love it. It’s such a fun ‘do. Both times I’ve gone really short, I’ve first cut it to a chin-length bob and then two or three weeks later went way short. So I totally understand the urge to go shorter! Can’t wait to see it! :)

I love your hair right now but you definitely have the face to go shorter. It’s just hair and it will grow back. I say go for it!
I love Dane Cook too!

If you want to go shorter, do it! If you hate it, it’ll always grow back :)

And I switched to morning runs and I LOVE IT!

THANKS Lisa :D I love those!!!
I’m sure not only you enjoyed your run this morning, but I bet Eddie did too :)
I think you should do a page on all of your hair styles too- I would love to see them- kind of like the post you did the other day about deciding what hair cut you would like best. I know you would look GORGEOUS with any hair cut, or even no hair at all :)

That’s awesome! That has yet to happen to me, haha.

I love Vicious Circle! I saw it live. So funny.

you saw it live? ahh jealous. I bet it was even funnier in person!

Dooo it! Go shorter! I think that a cut similar to what Teri has would really suit you.

I actually crave exercise in the morning all the time so that’s when I make an effort to workout. If I don’t exercise in the morning than any cravings go right out the window.

It’s great that you are able to wake up with the urge to run, not many people can say that. Thanks for sharing.
