Breakfast (11:00)
   -  coffee (black)
   - a banana 


Lunch (2:00)
   - six spoons of veggie pasta salad
   - tazo orange blossom tea
   - water 


Dinner (6:00)
   - a bowl of spinach and lettuce with five cherry tomatoes
   - a grilled chicken breast
   - tazo orange blossom tea
   - tall ice americano 


I'm pretty busy especially in the morning, so I was barely available to have a banana with a cup of coffee. Make sure you don't skip a meal! ....and I was outside for the whole time and the healthiest thing  available was veggie pasta salad so I really had a minimum amount that would keep me full. 


I couldn't take pictures of these but I will try to have all of the photos taken in the future.

   - Stretches
   - 5 minutes of running 
   - 3 sets of 30 arm-reaching crunch (http://www.youtube.com/watch?annotation_id=annotation_56045&feature=iv&src_vid=U-XWhwwJ7dw&v=UalX1Mx4XRs)
   - 3 sets of... 30 leg-lowering crunch........? Stretch out on the ground with your legs bent and pointed to the ceiling. Slowly move your legs down until the feet feel like they would be reaching the ground. come to the starting position. Repeat this process.
