GO FOR THE GUSTO

This is my absolute favorite breakfast!
Being away at college makes cooking really inconvenient sometimes. Luckily my building is right across the street from a Subway filled with tons of healthy options. When my friend suggested a sunrise melt and I tried it, it was absolutely DELICIOUS. Of course nothing can compare to a home-cooked meal but this melt is a wonderful way to start any morning. I comes with two slices of turkey, one slice of ham, and 2 pieces of bacon (let’s face it - bacon makes everything infinitely better) and a choice of either regular egg or egg whites. I always get mine with egg whites and only add spinach but the great thing about Subway is how easy it is to add different veggies.
One of the best parts besides the great taste? It’s 470 calories! Yep, you read that right. A standard 6 inch is 470 calories and honestly, a 6 inch sunrise melt can keep you full for a while. It’s also really well-priced, at least at my Subway. A combo which brings the sandwich and a choice of coffee or a water is only 3 bucks which is college budget friendly!
A quick, easy, cheap, and healthy breakfast. What more could you ask for? :)

AHHH I RAN 2.33 MILES STRAIGHT!

I’m sooooo happy! Haha, I took my coworker’s advice and decided not to focus on perfecting my 1 mile time and working on my endurance so I studied while on the treadmill (so the papers blocked my mileage) and ran for 30 mins straight :) That’s a 13:20 pace which isn’t awesome but as soon as I build up my mileage, I’ll start working more on my pace. Baby steps!

OHOH TMI probably but I have my unwanted monthly visitor so I really didn’t even want to go for a WALK since being in fetal position all day eating chocolate sounds so much better but I’m glad I got up & did something productive :)

Squeezed in a 1.3 mile full out run right after work and before study/dinner with the Dean of Education time :)

One of my coworkers is training for a half marathon/studying to be a dietitian and my other coworker is a certified yoga instructor so I feel super motivated after leaving the office to get movin’ regardless of how pressed for time I am haha

Personally I think drinking is really gross anyway so this hasn’t ever been an issue to me but I found that Duke study really interesting. 4.2 lbs can take a whole month or more to lose! Do you really wanna kill all the work you do in the kitchen/gym on a few nights of ‘fun’ that also kills your liver and lowers your inhibitions?

This doesn’t just apply to college! It’s easy to be down on yourself but think about all you can do to better yourself in the same amount of time you would be moping around :)
