I hope I&#8217;ve been a good host. lol I realized just how many things I have, so I figured I&#8217;d list them just for the heck of it.  Living with my mom works because she and I are on the same time schedule. She goes to bed at 9 PM even!<\/p>\n<p>Morning:<br \/>\n-I wake up between 4:30 and 5:30 every day. Naturally. I can&#8217;t sleep in if I wanted to. :[<br \/>\n-I&#8217;m starving so I have to eat immediately. I can&#8217;t wait. If I&#8217;m traveling and supposed to eat with other people later in the morning, I have to have a &#8216;morning snack&#8217; or I&#8217;ll feel like death waiting until like 7.<br \/>\n-I have to have a huge breakfast with all major food groups, or I get hungry a few hours later and feel hungry on and off for the rest of the day. My normal.breakfast consists of three courses:<br \/>\n1) yoghurt mixed with cereal. (sometimes oatmeal or bread with peanut butter in place of cereal) 2) two scrambled eggs with vegetables cut up, and nuts for fat<br \/>\n3) a huge salad with broccoli, asparagus, iceberg lettuce, carrots, and radishes. But I can&#8217;t have TOO much or I&#8217;ll get a stomachache when I put lunch in my stomach.<\/p>\n<p>-If I eat or have anything with calories that will stimulate my digestive system to move before 10:30AM, I get gas and indigestion for the rest of the day.  Except at 10:30 or after, I can have a banana and pre-work out drinks.<\/p>\n<p>afternoon:<br \/>\n-I&#8217;m still high strung after practice for an hour.<br \/>\n-I have to have vegetables with fiber for lunch, and meat. I almost always eat chicken.<br \/>\n-If I have too many carbs for lunch, I will get sleepy an hour later.<br \/>\n-I hate sitting down after eating because I feel the food sit in my stomach, so I like taking walks after eating.<br \/>\n-I hate eating at home, because I can&#8217;t stop eating.  Even if I&#8217;m full, I binge on whatever carbs are in the house, so I always bring my lunch to the gym so I can eat before I go home.  Even on weekends, I try and plan so I&#8217;m out of the house around lunch time, even if I pack something. OR I plan it so that I eat and then go out immediately, so I don&#8217;t keep eating.<br \/>\n-I must have protein and vegetables around 3 PM, or I&#8217;m exhausted and feel like a zombie.<\/p>\n<p>evening:<br \/>\n-I like to have dinner by 6 or I&#8217;m exhausted and like a zombie.<br \/>\n-If I have sugar or a big meal after 8, I have a hard time falling asleep because I feel energized.<br \/>\n-My brain and body start shutting down after 9:30 PM, especially if I&#8217;ve trained that day because I&#8217;m sooo tired from training. I&#8217;ve been known to randomly fall asleep in places like cars if I&#8217;m being driven, trains, MMA events, people&#8217;s houses if I&#8217;m invited over to watch the UFC, watching anime or movies on my computer everywhere. If I lay down on my sofa to watch TV, it is guaranteed I will fall asleep.

LOL<\/p>\n<p>extra:<br \/>\n-I can&#8217;t stop eating carbs, so I can&#8217;t have boxes of snacks or tubs of ice cream in the house, or I&#8217;ll eat the whole thing.<br \/>\n-I get a stomach ache and\/ or diarrhea or digestive distress from: cabbage, beans, raw broccoli, chocolate, fish oil (I can only tolerate two bits of raw salmon), vegetable oil, garlic, raw onions, anything fried like french fries or chips<\/p>\n<p>Brittany wanted to go to In-N-Out and I knew I couldn&#8217;t stomach the food, so I brought tuna and tofu and veggies. lol<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/in-n-out-food.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/roxannemodafferi.net\/RBlog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/06\/in-n-out-food.jpg\" alt=\"in n out food\" width=\"384\" height=\"512\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4727\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n-I plan my day the day before, so I know what meat to thaw out, what chores I can hit on the way to and from the gym.  What can I say? I&#8217;m good at maximizing my time, since I had to work and train full time for 8 years.
