All Or Nuttin’

I’m an all-or-nothing kind of girl. Go big or go home. Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

I’d rather have 3 meals a day than 6 small ones – because I want each meal to feel special.

So last night, planning out tomorrow [today] in my head, I considered my options:

    • Get up and run first thing, which means I’m stiff and hungry
    • Get up, eat a big breakfast, and run last minute, pushing my punctuality
    • Get up, eat half a breakfast, relax, run, eat second breakfast

Just call me a hobbit, because I chose #3. I normally don’t like to split meals in two, but sometimes it makes so.much.sense!

Plus, today I was torn between Great Harvest Warrenton  Cranberry Orange and Lynda’s granola, so this way I got to have both 🙂

CranOrangeBlog

First breakfast was upon waking, I had a toast of Cranberry Orange (which is 100% whole wheat!) Topped with jam and Nuttzo!

After about 30 minutes of digestion, Matt and I left on a run.

We ran on a new pathway through the woods for part of the run. It’s always wonderful to get in a little earth time first thing in the morning.

We covered just under 5 miles in about 50 minutes.

Second breakfast!

Featuring Lynda’s Granola!

Pablo and Lynda accidentally changed the recipe on Lynda’s granola and now it has HUGE clumps of oaty goodness. My new favorite cereal!!!!! I hope we can make this at our store too with their secret technique!

NolerBlog

Served over kefir, which was an amazing creamy combo

IMG_5009Blog

Served with a sip of coffee. Still reducing!

We have a noontime lunch meeting, which we are biking to, and then at 3PM event where we’re giving out bread. I probably won’t be back until after dinner! Lentils are defrosting from the freezer to serve on this busy day.

    I’ve never tried Kefir before but noticed it was on sale this week at my grocery store… maybe I’ll pick some up! I always split my breakfast up so it takes longer to eat. Good for you for pounding out 5 miles!!

    It’s pretty obvious that you get a TON of free goodies from your readers and companies, and that obviously cuts down on your grocery bills. Items like granola, gourmet peanut butters and the like are expensive! As such, it makes no sense for the majority of people who don’t have the benefit of freebies to spend $$$ on the organic goods you so tout. I eat conventional fruits and veggies and am just as healthy as you.

          You can make both granola and your favorite nut butter for much less of the cost of the grocery store. I buy oats and nuts in bulk for that reason. Sure it might not be the same as the fancy store bought stuff, but that way you can tailor it to the flavors you like!

              I dont have the time to make my own granola or nut butters either. I just buy them when I can or buy really generic brands.. which is part of the reason why I read Kath’s blog; I can drool over her beautiful food products & food creations. If it bothers you though I know of a TON of bloggers with full time jobs & you might enjoy reading those. One of my favs is my good friend from college over at Letsbehealthyandhappy.. check her out! 🙂

              I do exercise restraint often Missy. In fact I do it every damn day. You don’t have to get nasty b/c I point out a good point— that KERF gets tons of freebies thereby enabling her to buy expensive produce and other goods. In turn, she encourages others who don’t have her means to follow her lifestyle.

                Yes, but you don’t need to put others down in the process. Kath does what works for her, and I do what works for me. You are free to do what you want too. And I also work full time as a renal dietitian, part time as a photographer, exercise daily, cook dinner, and participate in many activities. It takes me 15 minutes to make granola that last 2 weeks. Not that much time.

        My goodness this discussion turned nasty rather quickly! I’ve found that pretty much anything is doable, it’s just a matter of figuring out if it’s worth the hassle to you. Linda, you can definitely do the glamorous organic foods for cheap throug bulk bins at high end grocery stores. I go every 2 weeks and spend $20 or less (usually less) each time. Also, some places are just easier to eat local and organic in than others. I live in California and can get cheap, local produce year round while my mom in MD only gets it 6 or so months of the year. But it sounds like you’ve got a routine that works for you and that’s pretty much all that matters.

    Hi Kath

    Just wondering about those “frozen lentils” – are they precooked? I usually just store mine dry, then boil them up as I need them. I’m wondering if you generally freeze the already cooked lentils and, if so, how well do they dethaw?
    thanks!

    • KathEats says

      They’re a recipe I made a while ago and froze – just like you’d freeze a soup or casserole. I’ve never done it before, but we’ve thawed soups many times and they work great. You can just stick in a hot pot and heat

        thanks! And speaking of lentils — you should try Angela’s Ultimate Lentil Loaf recipe (oh she glows). I always make 2 loaves so that I have one to freeze, and the dethawed and reheated loaf still tastes great!!

    I typically eat a piece of toast before working out and then have my actual breakfast after my workout. It works out nicely. I have to eat before I work out, otherwise it’s a total waste of time.

    I tried the second option once, and ended up in a really bad state during my run. I think I would have opted for the third option too. I can’t help but wonder how you can make such a simple slice of toast look so delectable.

    Lately I’ve been doing option 2, ’cause running before breakfast just makes me tired and super hangry for the rest of the day. Like I’m eating just to catch up on my calories and not eating for leisure. But usually I prefer option 4: Work out in the afternoon! 🙂

    I usually eat my breakfast during the week similar to how you did today… a good piece of toast with some nut butter before I work out so that I don’t get sick and then usually yogurt or a smoothie (or a yogurt smoothie ha) after I get back home. But I do agree about making each meal feel special, so I much prefer the days on the weekend when I can enjoy a big, leisurely breakfast.

    I have been seriously wanting to try Great Harvest Bread since reading about it on your blog forever ago, but there isn’t one within a reasonable driving range of where I live now. However, today I decided to look and see if there are any locations near where we’re moving to (Honolulu) and was so excited to see there are two!! I can’t wait to try it.

    I find it interesting that you prefer three larger meals over 6 small meals. I enjoy “grazing” throughout the day and never like to feel stuffed so I go with eating a small meal/snack every 3-4 hours. Did you study this in school to become a dietician? I’ve always heard that eating small multiple meals is good for your metabolism as well. Would love to hear your thoughts! Enjoy your day! 🙂

      I am currently an undergraduate in nutrition but will be going into graduate school for my M.S. in Public Health Nutrition. I worked with a doctoral student last year, and her study was on eating frequency and weight loss. She defends her work this May, so I will hear her explain all of her findings then. As of right now, I do not believe there is any research that definitively states which is better. I choose to graze, but it is ultimately up to your lifestyle. I hope this helped answer your question some. 🙂

    I love big clumps in granola, i will purposely pick em out. What does kefir taste like? i have seen it at the store but never purchased it. You have strong tastebuds how would you describe it?

      Kefir tastes like sour cream aka Greek yogurt.

      It’s like yogurt – similar to plain yogurt or the drinkable yogurts

      Have you ever tried raw milk qephor (kefir)? At first I was a little nervous about raw milk, but it really tastes great and is good for immunity and those that have leaky gut (or even lactose intolerant) because of the enzymes. This is the company I get it from at the farmers market here in CA: http://organicpastures.com/products_qephor.html We also get butter and beef from them sometimes as well.

    I don’t like splitting my breakfasts up! It’s my favourite meal of the day and I rather enjoy it fully than in parts. This eating before v after workout is a dilemma which I hv occasionally! I tend to eat half a banana w pb and workout immediately (doesn’t take mch digestion) and them come home and eat a proper, hearty brekkie which always tastes extra delicious! Endorphins+oats=a great start to my day!

    Is that wheatgrass?! Whatever it is, it is beautiful! Slash orange-cranberry is one of my favorite combinations of all time, I love the sweetness with slight tartness! So fresh:)

    Eating two breakfasts is fun! I love having a big “snack” before a run and then coming back for the real deal 🙂 Those breads sound like they are worth coming back to!
    Hope you have a productive day 😀

    haha interesting about your eating philosophy and ‘go big or go home’ 😛 I can’t just eat 3 meals though! I get shaky and weird haha. So I have to regulate how I eat often–you don’t get funky withdrawals? 🙂

    I’m the same way.. I’d rather have 3 meals than 6 smaller ones.. I tried that several months ago and it just left me feeling like I was snacking all day.. and never really satisfied, even though I was never physically hungry

    Kath,
    Your snack/2nd breakfast looks DIVINE. Yum!
    The number one thing to remember is to eat when you’re hungry. It doesn’t matter if you just had breakfast and hour and a half ago, if you’re hungry your body’s telling you something, so eat!
    You always set a great example!

    I love those glass coffee cups – we had a couple that came with our french press and being the klutz that I am, I found a way to load them in the dishwasher that made them EXPLODE! (Pinched between two other mugs/glasses.) If you wash them in a dishwasher be sure to give them plenty of room. 🙁 I miss mine.

    I’m all about listening to my body when i’m trying to figure out when to fit in a run in…(ie before a big breakfast or after a smaller one…) Typically I like to do it before so that I can just relax afterwards!

    If you will reconsider the urinal then I’ll find a UVA student to be a bathroom attendant. They could also pass out mouthwash and hand out paper towels. You’d be the first GHB with an attendant.

    I second Heather’s comment! Colorado would LOVE some bread!! :))
    Good Decision. I have to follow my meal plan, which means I have to have breakfast (it’s a big one) within an hour of waking. BUT I usually work out in the afternoons so I don’t have that problem too often, thank goodness. I can’t work out on an empty stomach either…its a complete waste of time

    Good luck on cutting back on coffee! I had to do that about a month ago, super tough! I don’t know if you drink yerba matte at all but it really helped me
