I ate terrible yesterday! Shame on me :( My meals included...

Coffee + creamer for breakfast
Taco soup ( actually pretty healthy) and a brownie for lunch
Another brownie and coffee for a afternoon snack
Pizza for dinner

I did work out yesterday, yay for me :) My work out was...

For a time, 21-15-9 reps of
Deadlifts @ 105 lbs
Handstand Pushups ( on a bench-press bench)

My time was 6:48 which is really pretty good! I was wiped after the workout, which is normal for a crossfit workout. But after I got home I felt like I should have done more. Maybe next time after a shorter workout like that I could do some rowing or something as a little extra.

The taco soup that I mentioned above in my meals, was really good, fairly healthy, and VERY easy. Here is the recipe...

Ingredients

• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 (16 ounce) can chili beans
• 1 (15 ounce) can black beans
• 1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained
• 1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce
• 1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer
• 2 (10 ounce) cans diced tomatoes with green chilies, undrained
• 1 (1.25 ounce) package taco seasoning
• 3 whole skinless, boneless chicken breasts
• shredded Cheddar cheese (optional)
• sour cream (optional)
• crushed tortilla chips (optional)

Directions

1. Place the onion, chili beans, black beans, corn, tomato sauce, beer, and diced tomatoes in a slow cooker. Add taco seasoning, and stir to blend. Lay chicken breasts on top of the mixture, pressing down slightly until just covered by the other ingredients. Set slow cooker for low heat, cover, and cook for 5 hours.
2. Remove chicken breasts from the soup, and allow to cool long enough to be handled. Stir the shredded chicken back into the soup, and continue cooking for 2 hours. Serve topped with shredded Cheddar cheese, a dollop of sour cream, and crushed tortilla chips, if desired.
