Time away

A couple of weeks before the 1/2 marathon I thought about getting away afterwards. I wanted time to think about things and enjoy a bit of time away from the life that seems to have become increasingly difficult (emotionally, spiritually & financially). I found a cabin in South Lake Tahoe that allows dogs and that's where I am now.

The weather held out for a little bit today so Baylie and I went out to run around, take some pictures and play in the snow in Kahle Meadows. One minute the sun would peek out and then the gray clouds would consume the sky and a light rain would fall.

A storm is a-comin' though... I might only make it out tomorrow just long enough to get my massage and facial and get some food.

Speaking of food, I am doing the Shakeology cleanse/detox that I spoke of before. Shakeology is by the whole Beachbody (think P90X) franchise and is designed to be taken once a day as either a meal replacement (if you are wanting to lose weight) or just as a snack if you want the benefits of all its nutrients.

Somewhere along the line someone came up with the idea to take it 3 times a day and add in a piece of fruit as a snack as well as lean protein and vegetables for dinner with no extras such as cheese, mayo, oils, etc. All in the name of cleansing your body.

Sprouts in South Lake Tahoe did not disappoint for my dinner choice. It is the healthiest place I know of in the area, so it had to be the best choice for dinners each night. Of course, I was so hungry by this time I probably could have eaten cardboard at that time and loved it, but it seriously was a great sandwich.

Yes, I cheated slightly with the whole grain bread and sesame chips, but no cheese!!

Looking forward to tomorrow and hoping I don't get bored...
