			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><span style="color:#3366ff;"><em>Hi Girlies,</em></span></h2>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">So i think im going to <strong><em><span style="text-decoration:underline;">take a break from blogging for a while</span></em></strong>. I dont know how long itll be&#8230;it could be a few weeks, it could be less, it could be more. I just feel like trying to photograph what i eat isnt really the best thing for me right now. Part of recovery is about letting go of the constant thoughts of food and food related things and to be honest ive always felt a little pressured to try and make lots of new dishes just so i could post them here, which isnt really right. Right now i just feel i need a break from blogging about what i choose to eat but i still intend to read some blogs&#8230;just not as much. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I really hope you can all understand why i need to take this break. I feel like recently my blogs gone from being about recovery with tibits of what i eat into a food blog without any aspect of my personality really shining through. A break is just what i need to re-evaluate what direction i want my blog to go in&#8230;but photographing everything i eat is not what i want it to be based on. Maybe il still keep it based on health/fitness/food but just in a different way&#8230;i dont know what i really want yet.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Im really interested in health and fitness and i dont think thats neccesarily stemming from my ed which is why i do genuinly enjoy reading blogs but keeping one of my own when i constantly feel pressured to almost &#8220;impress&#8221; others with my food choices isnt really right or healthy for my recovery. Part of Recovery is about making decisions that we know is right for us, even if theyre hard at the time..and i think this is one of those decisions i need to make. I do hope to really think about where i want my blog to go and in the near future really re-vamp what its focused on. I hope youll all read it too&#8230;.itll be on this blog and everying&#8230;but just different. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I want to be free and happy so incredibly much&#8230;and i really feel ive made so much progress towards my goal, especially with the help of all of you wonderful amazing people <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> . Till i return, feel free to drop me a facebook email if you want to get in touch with me. I truely value each and every friendship ive made in this community. </span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><span style="color:#3366ff;"><em>Happy Saturday chickpeas <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </em></span></h2>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I had one of those awful nights sleep where i was tossing and turning all night&#8230;my mind just wouldnt switch off even though i was exhausted, thank god i usually dont have much trouble sleeping as i hate not getting a good 8 hours of refreshing sleep. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Due to me being wide awake ( but tired??) by 6.15 I did end up getting some stuff done before 7am which was an accomplishment i guess, changing my bedsheets being one of them ( not a fun job right?). After a good run i feel alot more energetic now though, so its all good <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"><strong><em><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Some of Thursdays eats&#8230;.</span></em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Mid morning snackage&#8230;..</span></p>
<div id="attachment_983" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-983" title="anticsgeorges appartment 5th august 026" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/anticsgeorges-appartment-5th-august-0261.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="pineapple, strawberries and braeburn apple" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">pineapple, strawberries and braeburn apple</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I had a conversation ( ok so it was just me complaining&#8230;) with my dad the other day about how i havent had any &#8220;fun&#8221; fruit this summer like pineapples at all because mum keeps forgetting to buy it at the groccery store so you can imagine my excitment when my dad walked in the door with a pineapple in his hands the other night <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> . Yes, i got excited at the prospect of enjoying some fresh pineapple&#8230;.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">It was SO yummy! I think pineapples are one of my favourite fruits for sure! I also had a bar with the fruit&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_984" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-984" title="anticsgeorges appartment 5th august 025" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/anticsgeorges-appartment-5th-august-025.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="cherry dark chocolate kashi bar" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">cherry dark chocolate kashi bar</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I wasnt a fan of this bar at all&#8230;im not crazy about most dried fruits and this bar was just very &#8220;meh&#8221;. Sorry kashi, this one gets thumbs down!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Lunch was as you can probably guess&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_985" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-985" title="ll 003" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-0032.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="ham, sweetcorn and eggwhite sandwhich" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">ham, sweetcorn and eggwhite sandwhich</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I was really tired on thursday and spent the afternoon reading and not much else. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I also munched on a yummy afternoon snack&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_986" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-986" title="kk 001" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/kk-0011.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="banana and 2 wholemeal digestives with dark choc dreams" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">banana and 2 wholemeal digestives with dark choc dreams</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Yes, i like my snacks to be happy ones! </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Dinner was just what i was craving&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_987" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-987" title="l 003" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/l-0031.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="terrayaki salmon with herbs and veggies" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">terrayaki salmon with herbs and veggies</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Then i headed off to my osteopath appoinment. My hip is in allignment, but he said sometimes it can take a few extra sessions to really get rid of all of the pain ive been experiencing down my left leg thats associated with my hip. The pains are just random and they come and go, so its not unbearable like before. Hopefully this was the last time il be seeing him!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"><strong><em><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Fridays eats&#8230;</span></em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Breakfast was nothing out of the ordinary. </span></p>
<div id="attachment_988" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-988" title="l 001" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/l-0012.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="cereal n milk" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">cereal n milk</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Then i went for a long, relaxing walk as my leg was feeling a little stiff and i didnt want to push it with a run. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">A while after i got back i snacked on more pineapple&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_989" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-989" title="kk 002" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/kk-0021.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="pineapple, strawberries and a nature valley toasted almond bar" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">pineapple, strawberries and a nature valley toasted almond bar</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I think it was a pineapple overload because i felt pretty full after this ( theres way more in the bowl than it looks!). I want to buy pineapples all the time now <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  i love them!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Lunch was in the form of a bap&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_990" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-990" title="ll 003" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-0033.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="scramlbed egg with basil and a slice of turkey in a wholemeal bap" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">scrambled egg with basil and a slice of turkey in a wholemeal bap</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I didnt do much yesturday afternoon either&#8230;more reading, some wardrobe cleaning and generally, boring stuff. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">My afternoon snack was rather boring too ( although very delicious!)</span></p>
<div id="attachment_991" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-991" title="kk 004" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/kk-004.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="banana and a cereal bar covered in nutella" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">banana and a cereal bar covered in nutella</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">The bar was a few months out of date and i knew i needed to eat it now, or throw it out. Im not one for wasting bars so&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Oh, this was it pre-chocolate spread&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_992" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-992" title="kk 003" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/kk-0031.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="..." width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">...</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Yes, they do my favourite cereal in the form of a bar too, and yes, im obsessed with everything &#8220;almond oats n more&#8221;. Its a light, chewy, oaty bar with random chocolate chunks. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Dinner was really simple and delicious&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_993" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-993" title="f 006" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/f-006.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="vegtable pasta" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">vegtable pasta</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I just cooked some corgette (zuchini), mushrooms and broccoli in tomato sauce and mixed it with some wholemeal pasta. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I spent the evening reading and watching tv with my mum before having some yogurt and granola and calling it a night. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">So there you have my 2 days worth of some of my eats. Before i go, i want to share a quote with you that i really love. I have it tapped to my mirror and i always read it when i need to push myself to step outside of my comfort zone&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"><em><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><span style="color:#3366ff;">&#8220;20 years from now youll be more dissapointed by the things you didnt do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the harbour. Catch the wind in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover</span>&#8221; &#8211; </span></em>Mark twain</span></p>

<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I have to thank you all SO much for all of your incredible support and sweet comments that were left on my last post. This blogging community means the world to me and each and everyone of you made me feel better, so thank you so much <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> . </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I know now its just a matter of making the most of an awkward, uncomfortable situation&#8230;i intend to keep going to group and if shes there, so what&#8230;i need to focus on my recovery and i truely do wish her all of the best in recovery and hope she gets better, so il just leave it at that. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Some of yesturdays eats&#8230;.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I had breakfast upon waking just after 7am&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_973" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-973" title="brekkie 004" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/brekkie-004.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="......." width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">.......</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Then i went for a 4(ish) mile run/walk in the park. It was a great sweating sesh and i felt so energetic after it!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Mid morning i had a craving for a clif bar&#8230;so i obviously satisfied that craving with&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_974" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-974" title="l 002" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/l-002.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="choc chip clif bar and a plum" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">choc chip clif bar and a plum</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I had the second last of my normal size clif bars. I microwaved half so it got all melty and gooey&#8230;SO good <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> . That plum was so juicy&#8230;when i took a bite into it the juice went everywhere and got me all sticky&#8230;not pleasent&#8230;but so tasty!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Lunch was my favourite sandwhich&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_975" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-975" title="k 001" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/k-001.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="ham, eggwhite and sweetcorn sammie" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">ham, eggwhite and sweetcorn sammie</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Wanna know something odd? I eat this sandwhich with some tomatoe relish AND tomato ketchup on the side for dipping action. Odd? yes, delicious? completely <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />   </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I got a text from my friend informing me her and 2 of our other friends were going out that night and asked if i wanted to join them. I immediatly said yes! Gone are the days where i turn down social invitations&#8230;.im loving being around friends again <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  So i spent the afternoon doing my nails and other various beauty related things. I snacked mid afternoon&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_976" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-976" title="ll 001" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-0013.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="banana, 2 giant strawberries and a cereal bar slathered in nutella" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">banana, 2 giant strawberries and a cereal bar slathered in nutella</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I know, 2 bars in one day&#8230;but i have so many bars that are slowly expiring and im trying to eat them before they reach than inedible stage! Anything covered in nutella tastes amazing <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> .</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">The cereal bar was called&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_977" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-977" title="ll 002" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-0023.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="vita grain oat bar" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">vita grain oat bar</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">It was very chewy and oaty&#8230;just how i like bars to be!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I spent the afternoon reading in the backgarden, chatting to my mum and doing some other shennanigans before having dinner&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_978" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-978" title="ll 001" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-0014.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="piri piri chicken with basil and veggies" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">piri piri chicken with basil and veggies</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">After dinner i did my make up and all that jazz before heading out to my friends apartment for some predrinks around 9pm. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I decided not to drink last night as i always get such awful hangovers and my stomach hates me for days after. I stuck to drinking coke and proved to myself that i can have fun without drinking! I really love the 3 girls who were at the apartment&#8230;theyre all so sweet and im really enjoying seeing them more! We headed to the club around 11.30 and after a few hours of dancing, inhaling second hand smoke in the smoking area and shouting over loud music, i called it a night. My amazing dad woke up and drove in at 2 pm to save me from getting a taxi on my own&#8230;hes so kind! </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">One of my goals this summer was to say yes to more social related things and try and become closer to my friends again and i really feel like im achieving that! Im grabbing every opportunity i can to be around friends and im having so much fun <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Saying yes is always the hardest part..but once im out and having fun, i prove to myself over and over that i can be so free of anything to do with the ed. Its an amazing feeling <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I cant believe its almost friday already! Where has this week gone?? Have you any plans for the weekend yet??</span></p>
<h2><span style="color:#3366ff;"><em>Enjoy your thursday chickpeas <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </em></span></h2>

<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">So my legs been feeling a little funny again ugh&#8230;i think im going to make another appointment with the osteopath for some day this week. I just went for a walk today, despite my leg feeling perfect when i woke up. The temperature is way warmer here again&#8230;maybe august will be a nice month weatherwise afterall <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"><strong><em><span style="color:#3366ff;">Yesturdays eats&#8230;</span></em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">After stumbling out of bed after 7 hours of sleep ( 10.30 bedtimes work way better for me than 11.30!!) i got myself some breakfast&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_956" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-956" title="l 003" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/l-003.jpg?w=500&#038;h=362" alt="cereal" width="500" height="362" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">cereal</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">After a morning of the usual bumming around i had me a snack&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_957" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-957" title="ll 003" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-0031.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="a tiny tiny banana and a nakd cocoa loco bar" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">a tiny tiny banana and a nakd cocoa loco bar</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">That banana was so so tiny&#8230;like a baby banana <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Lunch was the usual, delicious combination of things sandwhiched between some yummy bread&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_958" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-958" title="k 002" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/k-0021.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="ham, sweetcorn and eggwhite sandwhich" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">ham, sweetcorn and eggwhite sandwhich</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I spent the afternoon having lots of &#8220;me time&#8221; as the rest of my family were out for the afternoon. I really love being home alone sometimes <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I snacked on a delicous flapjack during the afternoon&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_959" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-959" title="ll 001" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-0012.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="wholegrain butter flapjack" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">wholegrain butter flapjack</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">&#8230;..Butter is a BIG fear food for me, so the fact that there was butter in this was something! It didnt stop me eating or enjoying it though&#8230;.the main ingredient was oats and it was wholegrain, so it was still healthy&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_960" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-960" title="ll 002" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-0022.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="flapjack with nutella and strawberries" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">flapjack with nutella and strawberries</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Ohmygosh SO delicious with nutella spread on top. Those strawberries were so juicy and fantastic!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">My mum and bro ended up staying at my granny for dinner so i was dining alone. I made myself a delicious, simple dinner&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_961" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-961" title="ll 004" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-0041.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="bbq chicken skewers and veggies" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">bbq chicken skewers and veggies</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">The chicken skewers were really simpe&#8230;just chicken, tomatoes and red onions marinated in a bbq sauce and cooked in foil in the oven for 40 minutes. With a side of veggies of course&#8230;all consumed with ketchup <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Then i spent a good part of the night reading. I just started reading a new book called &#8220;The abortionists daughter&#8221; By Elisabeth Hyde and its pretty good so far! Il review it properly when i finish it! It poured rain all night, so it was definetly a night for snuggling up on the couch!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I was in bed by 10.30 and got a much needed 8.5 hours sleep..i woke up feeling totally refreshed <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I loved hearing all of the words you used to describe yourselves! They were all so different!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I dont have any plans for today yet but tonight i have group from 8-9.30!!</span></p>
<h2><span style="color:#3366ff;"><em>Enjoy your tuesday <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </em></span></h2>
<h2><span style="color:#3366ff;"><em>Much love</em></span></h2>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><span style="color:#3366ff;"><em>Happy Monday girlies <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </em></span></h2>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Its a bank holiday weekend over here, so it feels like sunday all over again! I started my morning with a nice walk in the park..its wet out today and it was drizzling the entire time&#8230;but in a refreshing sort of way <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> . My left leg was a little sore yesturday afternoon, so i knew i wouldnt be doing any running of any sort today. I enjoyed my walk, so its all good!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Yesturdays eats&#8230;.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">After breakfast ( the usual cereal) i went for a nice long walk in the park&#8230;it was a really beautiful sunday morning! After some walking, showering, blogging and reading i had a snack&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_948" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-948" title="kk 002" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/kk-002.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="luna bar and a banana and strawberries" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">luna bar and a banana and strawberries</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">The luna bar was the chocolate pecan pie flavour. To be honest i really wasnt impressed. It wasnt terrible, but not amazing either&#8230;..</span></p>
<div id="attachment_949" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-949" title="kk 003" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/kk-003.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="upclose" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">upclose</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">meh&#8230;.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Me, my brother and parents spent the morning trying to decide what my brother should wear to my auntys wedding&#8230;.its funny because i think my 13 year old brother values my opinion more than my parents cause im younger (OBV..) haha!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Lunch was the usual sambo&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_950" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-950" title="k 004" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/k-004.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="ham, sweetcorn and eggwhite sandwhich on wholewheat, seeded bread" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">ham, sweetcorn and eggwhite sandwhich on wholewheat, seeded bread</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">After lunch (and coffee&#8230;) me and mum headed out for a few hours. We went for a walk on the pier, got coffee and browsed some book shops. It was a really nice, relaxing afternoon!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Dinner was warm and comforting. We had chilli with wholegrain rice&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_951" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-951" title="ll 002" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-0021.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="chilli with broccoli and wholegrain rice" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">chilli with broccoli and wholegrain rice</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Cause brocolli makes everything taste better <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> . Im not a huge red meat fan and wouldnt really miss it if i didnt eat it, but sometimes my mum likes us to all have the same dinner and i do enjoy it from time to time so i dont bother making a fuss about wanting to make something else. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I spent the rest of the night on the couch looking up some stuff to do with college, talking to my friend on the phone and watching a new show called &#8220;privaleged&#8221; which is pretty good! I also snacked on&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_952" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-952" title="ll 001" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-0011.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="yogurt and granola" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">yogurt and granola</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I ended up staying up till 11.30 which is late for me&#8230;.i think most 18 year olds would find that an early bedtime&#8230;im definetly an oldie at heart <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Dont forget to check out what i learned last month which i wrote about in my last post if you missed it!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Now just for some fun&#8230;If you had to describe yourself using 3 words, what would they be?</span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I find it really hard to describe any aspects of myself when it comes to my personality..the only one that i can really think of right now would be &#8220;thoughtful&#8221; and &#8220;silly&#8221; in a funny, goofy sort of way. I cant wait to hear what you all have to say about yourselves <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>

<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I had a fantastic walk this morning&#8230;i spent an hour powerwalking around the park which was empty and so so beautiful. Mornings really are my favourite time of the day <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Yesturdays eats&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I woke up after a rough nights sleep and the worst headache (youve already heard about that&#8230;.) feeling like i was slightly hungover? However Breakfast was still the usual yummy goodness&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_941" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-941" title="l 001" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/l-001.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="......" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">......</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Then i went for a nice run/walk in the park because i badly needed some fresh air. I ran for around 15 minutes at a slow pace and then just walked for a while which really made me feel SO much better and less headachey. I really love walking AND running, so doing a bit of both really works for me <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">After showering and reading some blogs and whatnot i got all snacky&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_942" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-942" title="ll 006" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-0061.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="nature valley oat bar, a braeburn and strawberries" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">nature valley oat bar, a braeburn and strawberries</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I then blogged, did a few things that needed to be done and got myself ready for a fun day with mumsy. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Before leaving i had some lunch&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_943" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-943" title="kk 001" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/kk-001.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="sliced ham and turkey sandwhiched between 2 slices of irish soda bread and some grapes and strawberries" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">sliced ham and turkey sandwhiched between 2 slices of irish soda bread and some grapes and strawberries</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I love irish soda bread. Its so delicious!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Me and mum had a few things to exchange in the shops in town so we headed out for an afternoon of window shopping and whatnot. We got a coffee in Butlers upon arriving in town and spent a good 3 hours looking in the shops ( although i managed to resist spending any money at all <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Now thats willpower!!). We had a really nice mother/daughter day <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">When we came home i was worn out so i collapsed on the couch till dinner time which was nothing exciting&#8230;i was too lazy to be creative&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_944" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-944" title="l 005" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/l-005.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="codfishcake and veggies" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">codfishcake and veggies</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I felt really sick and headachey after dinner so i lied down for a while, watched superbad and went to bed. </span><span style="color:#3366ff;">I think a good nights sleep was just what i needed because i feel fantastic today!</span></p>
<h2><span style="color:#3366ff;"><em>What i learned in july&#8230;</em></span></h2>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I feel like I learned so much about listening to my body when i injured myself and although im not going to go as far as saying im glad it happened because it was seriously painful, i feel like it was a bit of a blessing in disguise. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I was in pain on and off for months and i never really gave myself a chance to just stop running and let my body rest and heal. But then when the pain got too much i knew i couldnt ignore it anymore and so i asked my dad could he take me to get it checked out. After seeing the osteopath and hearing what he had to say about the injury  i knew i would have to take time off running. Now im not a running junkie or someone who runs 5 miles a day or anything, but i still felt a little panicky about stopping running for 3 weeks. I think i was mostly worried about not being able to run again at all&#8230;like id suddenly just forget how to. Regardless of my worries, i stopped running, went to osteopath appointments and really gave my hip a chance to heal. I went on a lot of slow morning walks and really learned to listen to my body and feel where it was hurting. I also started stretching a lot which i think is what my body needed. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Overall after being kinder to my body and not pushing it&#8230;really seeing it as something to take care of rather than something to just &#8220;use&#8221; i feel like ive learned a lot these past few weeks. No longer will i ever force myself to try and &#8220;get past&#8221; the pain. I choose to listen to my body and treat it right&#8230;after all we only get one body in this life!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I just wanted to relaly reflect on that as i know i hadnt done so yet!</span></p>
<h2><span style="color:#3366ff;"><em>I hope you all have a wonderful, relaxing sunday <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </em></span></h2>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><span style="color:#3366ff;"><em>Happy 1st day of August girlies <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </em></span></h2>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I cant believe its august already! July went by waaaay to fast&#8230;summer needs to slow it down!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I apologize for being a terrible blogger this week&#8230;i know ive only been posting every second day and its really just beccause ive been pretty busy. Thats life for ya though&#8230;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"><strong><em>Thursday re-cap&#8230;.</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I got up and decided to have a different breakfast from the norm&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_928" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-928" title="ll 003" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-003.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="weetabix with strawberries, frozen grapes and nature path oaty bites" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">weetabix with strawberries, frozen grapes and nature path oaty bites</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Multiply this by two, add milk and thats what i ate! I added the milk after the picture as weetabix goes so soggy very fast and i like it better before its all mush. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I then went for a nice walkidy walk in the park and took a break from the running as id run the previous 2 days and i need to build it back up slowly after my injury. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">When i got home i showered, read some blogs and had a snack&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_929" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-929" title="ll 005" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-005.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="braeburn apple, strawberries, rasberries and a coconut cream pie larabar" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">braeburn apple, strawberries, rasberries and a coconut cream pie larabar</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">That apple was insanely good&#8230;so juicy, crisp and very shiny. The larbar was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! i LOVED it <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  i think this has got to be the nicest one ive tried&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_930" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-930" title="ll 006" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-006.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="exposed...." width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">exposed....</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">It was so coconut-y and delicious!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Before heading out for some shopping with mum i had a quick lunch&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_931" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-931" title="foodies 011" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/foodies-011.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="the usual sambo" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">the usual sambo</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">During our shopping afternoon i snacked on a freshly baked cookie from the MnS bakery&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_932" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-932" title="foodies 007" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/foodies-007.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="White choc chip cookie" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">White choc chip cookie</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">It was still all melty and soft. SO good and totally worth it.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"> For me, somtimes eating something not so nutritionally impressive is alot healthier mentally for me than eating 100 percent healthy the entire time. I dont eat anything &#8220;unhealthy&#8221; most days and i dont crave sweet things but every now and again i see something i want that may not be so &#8220;healthy&#8221; and i think its important for me to eat it and enjoy it to remind myself that i dont have to be strict with what i eat or feel guilty for wanting something like a cookie every now and again&#8230;everything in moderation is my motto and i truely believe thats what a healthy diet is all about. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">After a few hours of shopping (mostly just browsing..im trying not to spent too much money) we returned home&#8230;i only bought one thing&#8230;a &#8220;boyfriend blazer&#8221; in penneys for 15 euro that looks identical to the topshop ones that cost 100 euro&#8230;bargain!! I made a simple dinner&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_933" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-933" title="ll 001" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-001.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="omlette" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">omlette</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I made an omlette with one egg, one eggwhite, basil, some ham, garden peas and red onion. This is the only picture i took that didnt turn out blurry&#8230;it was obviously not finished yet but almost there&#8230;i folded it in half and ate it with some ketchup after i snapped this shot. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">The PM snack was the same as always (yogurt and granola) while me and my mum watched Big Brother before going to bed around 10.30 (yep, im totes a granny)</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"><strong><em>Friday re-cap&#8230;</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">i got up and had some of my favs cereal before embarking on a run&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_934" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-934" title="brekkie 002" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/brekkie-002.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="...." width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">....</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I was SO excited for my run and had a feeling it was going to be a great one. I was right&#8230;it was a FANTASTIC run <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  I ran for about 25 minutes pain free and i could have kept going except i knew i had ran enough considering the injury and everything. I then walked for 20 minutes or so before going home. It was one of those runs that really made me feel alive..i felt like i was just glidding along LOL <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I quickly showered and grabbed a snack (a banana and nature valley oat bar) to eat in the car on the way to my osteopath appointment. The appointment went GREAT and guess what&#8230;.Im all good now! I dont have to go back for anymore appointments wooo!! He said my hips were in allignment again ( when i first saw him my left hip was seriously twisted causing my sciatic nerve to be pinched and pulled). So basically i can ease back into the running and not excpect any pain <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Im still going to be very concious of ensuring i stretch lots and take lots of rest on days i ever feel any pain at all.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Then dad had to run some errands so i tagged along. When we got home i made lunch&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_935" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-935" title="ll 002" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-002.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="one scra,bled egg with basil in a wholewheat bap with a slice of turkey" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">one scrambled egg with basil in a wholewheat bap with a slice of turkey</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">A scrambled egg bap sammie. It was really yummy&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_936" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-936" title="ll 004" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/ll-004.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="all sandwhiched together" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">all sandwhiched together</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">After lunch around 3 i headed out to meet some friends in starbux for coffee and chats. We ended up staying there for over 2hours and i had a really great time <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">When i got home me and mum made some dinner&#8230;we just had some fresh salmon and veggies&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_937" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-937" title="k 002" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/k-002.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="terrayaki glazed salmon with herbs, veggies" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">terrayaki glazed salmon with herbs, veggies</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">It poured rain all day yesturday and last night was no different. I spent the rest of the night watching some tv with mum and chatting to her. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Im going to leave this post at that today&#8230;i had THE WORST headache ive ever had around 4am this morning..i woke up in pain and was in agony for about 2 hours&#8230;i felt like my head was going to pop..and im not just being dramatic..it was really horrible ..my own thoughts were too loud for me and causing me pain! I never ever get headaches but lately ive been getting them everyday which is really starting to worry me. My dad said if i keep getting them well have to get it chekced out. <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Do you get headaches regularly? What helps them go away for you?</span></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Me and mum have a fun day planned ahead so ive gotta go get ready,</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><span style="color:#3366ff;"><em>Happy Thursday girlies <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </em></span></h2>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Im so cold right now, the temperature seems to have dropped considerably overnight and it doesnt feel very much like summer right now&#8230;except for the sun which is shining brightly right now <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  Sunny mornings are one of lifes simplist pleasures&#8230;it makes me super happy&#8230;im sure you can guess that by now with all of my weather talk&#8230;.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"><strong><em>Tuesdays eats&#8230;.</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I got up and had some breakfast&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_917" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-917" title="ll 004" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/ll-0047.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="almond oats n more cereal" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">almond oats n more cereal</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Then i went for a fantastic run with walking intervals. Im still taking it easy and doing more walking than running, but it feels great to work up a sweat again!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">When i got back i showered, read some blogs and after a while i had a snack&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_918" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-918" title="ll 002" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/ll-00211.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="chocolate chip clif bar and an orange" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">chocolate chip clif bar and an orange</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Bleeugh&#8230;that orange was gross! It tasted &#8220;off&#8221; and i ended up throwing half of it out. It was also a pain in the ass to peel&#8230;my hands smelled like orange rind all day&#8230;.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">So remeber the way i said the bread i love was being discontinued&#8230;well it turns out the shopkeeper got it wrong..its still being made&#8230;but theyre just cutting down on the production of it. Mum found that out when she stopped at a shop that used to sell it&#8230;she bought 2 loaves and i put a whole one in the freezer for lunch next week <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> . </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">So lunch was obviously a sammie on my favourite bread&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_919" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-919" title="f 004" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/f-0043.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="sammie with ham, an eggwhite and sweetcorn" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">sammie with ham, an eggwhite and sweetcorn</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Mmmm SO good!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">My afternoon snack was a happy one&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_920" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-920" title="ll 001" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/ll-00114.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="banana and 2 wholewheat digestive biscuits with darkchocolate dreams" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">banana and 2 wholewheat digestive biscuits with darkchocolate dreams</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Such a yummy snack! Dark Choc Dreams is amazing&#8230;.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">My stomach started hurting a while after this snack so i layed down for a while. I wasnt hungry for dinner but knew i needed something, so i just had something simple&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_921" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-921" title="june photos 013" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/june-photos-0131.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="fishcake and veggies" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">fishcake and veggies</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I spent the rest of the night trying to get into the book &#8220;Testimony&#8221; by Anite Sherve&#8230;but i just was NOT enjoying it&#8230;after reading about 100 pages and hating it, ive given up on it. I hate buying books and not reading them, but this one was just a complete stinker!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"><strong><em>Wedsnday re-cap&#8230;</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I set my alarm for 6.30 am so i could have breakfast and go for a run before babysitting at 9am. After quickly showering and throwing a few things to amuse myself into a bag i just about made it in time ( despite the fact that i babysat for a kid a few doors down from me&#8230;damn my love of long showers&#8230;). </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I babysat from 9am-1pm. I snacked mid morning on a banana and a nature valley oat bar. When i got home i had a really rushed lunch before heading out to meet my friend&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_922" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-922" title="ll 002" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/ll-00212.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="tuna and sweetcorn sandwhich on WW seeded, malted bread" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">tuna and sweetcorn sandwhich on WW seeded, malted bread</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I met my childhood best friend who i havent seen in years and it was SO much fun to catch up with her. Weve always kept in touch but the last time we actually talked face to face was so long ago. We met when we were 7 when i moved to ireland and stayed with my granny for a while. We had a great time and talked for hours about college, what weve been up to all summer, our families and old childhood memories we had together. We got on so well and my worries about it being awkward because we hadnt seen eachother in so long were all proved wrong! Friendships like that are the best <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">When i got home i made a quick and light dinner&#8230;my stomach was feeling off again&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_923" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-923" title="ll 002" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/ll-00213.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="sweet potatoe &quot;rounds&quot; with paprika, broccoli and an eggwhite" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">sweet potatoe &quot;rounds&quot; with paprika, broccoli and an eggwhite</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">All with a huge dollop of ketchup of course <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">So thats the past 2 days and some of my eats in a nutshell. I hope this post wasnt too boring, if you got through it all..thanks for reading <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Its almost the weekend again..WOOHOO! Ive gotta skiddadle now, this post took longer than i thought and im meant to be going out in 20 minutes and im nowhere near decent for that yet&#8230;.</span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><span style="color:#3366ff;">Happy Tuesday girlies <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /><br />
</span></h2>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Ive just realised how scarce my posting has been this week so i do apologize for that <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> . I usually blog in the mornings so if im ever too busy in the mornings to post, it doesnt usually get done. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">So a weekend recap is in order i think&#8230;.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"><strong><em>Saturday&#8230;</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I did the usual nonsense in the morning&#8230;breakfast, run/walkidy walk, blog reading etc. I munched on a mid morning snack in the mist of it all&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_907" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-907" title="ll 011" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/ll-011.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="nakd apple pie bar and a braeburn apple" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">nakd apple pie bar and a braeburn apple</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Mmmm appley goodness&#8230;ive decided braeburns are my fav variety of apples&#8230;whats your favourite apple variety???</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Lunch was in the form of something scrambled&#8230;eggs to be exact&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_908" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-908" title="ll 010" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/ll-0101.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="scrambled eggs on toast" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">scrambled eggs on toast</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">It was good <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Then me and mum went into town for the afternoon for some shopping. I needed to find my sister a birthday present as shes turning 23 on wednsday so were going to send her over some stuff. After a few hours of retail therapy me and mum met up with my granny for dinner. We went to this cute little italian restuarant which was lovely inside but the menu wasnt that impressive. There wasnt many options and i ended up just ordering a vegetable soup &#8220;rome style&#8221;. It was actually really delicious! It had chunks of courgette and other various veggies in it and there were also some lentils and beans up in there too. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">We got home around 8.30 and i spent the night reading, watching some tv and eating a bedtime snack of yogurt and granola before hitting the sack at around 11pm. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"><strong><em>Sunday&#8230;.</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I went for a morning walk after breakfast which was followed by a long chat with my sis on skype. Skype is seriously awesome&#8230;i always forget im talking to her from half way across the world because it feels like were right beside eachother <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> . </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">After a mid morning snack including a banana and a four nut bar ( which i couldnt get a pic of as my dad borowed my camera the night before for a u2 concert and hadnt given it back yet) i headed to my therapy appointment at 11.30. It went really well as per usual <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  i got some fun therapy homework im really looking forward to doing!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">When i got home i had some lunch&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_909" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-909" title="ll 006" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/ll-0063.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="sammie with eggwhite, ham and sweetcorn on wholewheat bread" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">sammie with eggwhite, ham and sweetcorn on wholewheat bread</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I spent the rest of sunday afternoon relaxing around the house and not doing anything rather exciting, but in a nice sort of way <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Dinner was simple and delicious&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_910" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-910" title="june photos 016" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/june-photos-016.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="chicken breast (from a roast chicken) and side salad" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">chicken breast (from a roast chicken) and side salad</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I also had a few baby potatoes but i took the picture before i remebered to plate them up!</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"><strong><em>Monday&#8230;.</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I got and had breakfast&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_911" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-911" title="l 003" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/l-0035.jpg?w=500&#038;h=362" alt="almond oats n more cereal" width="500" height="362" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">almond oats n more cereal</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Then i went for an amazing, pain free run <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  I ran (slowly) for about 20 minutes&#8230;which was more than id planned to but i felt SO fantastic so i kept going for a few more minutes than id planned. Then i just walked for a while before going home to shower. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">I jumped back into bed and read some blogs for a while before getting a snackidy snack&#8230;</span></p>
<div id="attachment_912" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-912" title="ll 001" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/ll-00113.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="luna caramel nut brownie, braeburn apple and some strawberries" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">luna caramel nut brownie, braeburn apple and some strawberries</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">Braeburns are the perfect amount of crispy/juicyness and the right sweetness too. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">After some lunch i headed into town with my friend to help her find her dad a birthday present. We ended up spending a few hours just browsing around the shops and (thankfully) i didnt buy anything.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;"> After a 30 minute walk back from the bus stop in the hot sun ( i was wearing jeans&#8230;.not airy material at all!) i arrived home and showered before making a quick dinner with mum&#8230;.</span></p>
<div id="attachment_913" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 510px"><span style="color:#3366ff;"><img class="size-full wp-image-913" title="l 003" src="http://rediscoveringlauren.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/l-0036.jpg?w=500&#038;h=375" alt="lemon and terayaki salmon with veggies" width="500" height="375" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">lemon and terayaki salmon with veggies</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">(repeat pic&#8230;)</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">The rest of the night was spent watching some tv with mum and then finsihing my sisters keeper. The ending&#8230;ohmygosh&#8230;so sad! I really loved this book and would recommed it to anyone. Now i really wanna see the movie <img src='http://s2.wp.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3366ff;">So todays looking pretty uneventful right now but thats ok with me because tomorow il be out pretty much all day (meaning i probs wont get to blog) as im babysitting from 9am till just after 1 and then meeting an old friend who i havent seen in years at 2pm. Its gonna be a busy day&#8230;.</span></p>
