Happy Friday!!! I started my little day with an easy 4 miler. I am planning a long run tomorrow, but ended up taking a rest day yesterday so I was itching to do something!
Then, I came home hungry! I made a quick and dirty egg sandwich with an apple on the side.
With iced coffee. This is Dunkin Donuts coffee, but it’s homemade NOT real DD iced coffee. It is NOT the same.
Then, I had a piece of toast of with PB&J. I am literally about to print out the hunger scale to have a more visible reminder of managing it while eating. Because this morning was a perfect example of neglecting my fullness cues.
Speaking of, I got this ad from Souplantation today. Um, that’s not a good thing.
Back to last night! I busted out the green eye shadow for St. Patty’s Day!
Hopefully, that distracted from my lack of brushing my hair.
Ben and I had a date and started with sushi…
We got everything to share. This is a Popcorn Lobster Roll. It is basically a CA roll covered with popcorn shrimp and that amazing fat packed spicy mayo sauce.
I love lobster. Just wish I could go down to Puerto Nuevo and get some of the good stuff!
Salmon is my favorite and my vote was for this plate.
Then, we headed to the Improv for a show. Ben loves Mitch Fatel so I surprised him with tickets.
There is a 2 drink minimum. Well, if you say so…
We had a late night and Ben ended up getting a Shamrock shake on the way home. I had a sip before I remembered that’s a sweet. Busted! I stopped when I realized.
This morning I made Ben an egg sandwich too. I thought it was cute that these two eggs are so different. One’s smaller and darker (like my BFF Cindy), ones bigger and lighter (like me). But they still work well together. It takes all kinds
Me and Cindy
Question: Are you and your friends similar? Or do opposites attract?
I normally don’t think opposites attract. Ben and I are more same than different. But, Cindy and I are definitely different, but it works
Amber K says
My best friend and I are so similar it’s scary!
Amy says
I almost literally drooled over your sushi. YUM.
janae @hungryrunnergirl.com says
Now I am craving sushi ha!! LOVE YOUR MAKE-UP…teach me your ways!
Paula @ Eat: Watch: Run says
I love that green eyeshadow on you. Not a lot of people can pull off green.
My best friend and I love all the same things, but she’s really polite and quiet and I’m….not. And we ALWAYS have people ask if we are sisters. We don’t think we look alike but everyone else sure does!
Marisa @ Loser for Life says
I’m really craving sushi now! Everything looks so good, Monica! Glad you had a nice date with your hub!
Christine says
My friends and I are different as far as looks, but the people I’m the closest to I share a lot of personality traits with, I think.
I don’t always love stand up comedy, but I do love enforced drink minimums 🙂

So, I am 4’10, and a mix of Japanese and Mexican.- Distance Runner
My best friend, he’s 6’1 Black and Mexican.- Sprinter.
Lol
I took him on a 11 mile run(with hills), at first he was fast and had to slow down to stay at my pace, but by the end he had to try to keep up with me XP
He also likes to count are steps- for every two I take, he takes one XD
Kellie says
I have learned that it takes me at least 20min for my hunger cues to kick in. I eat breakfast and then have some coffee if I feel like I want something more. I go and do something and figure if I am hungry in 20min, then I can eat again. I am never hungry after my 20min are up. It really does take at least that long for my meal to catch up with me.
Jess@atasteofconfidence says
My friends are pretty similar to me in about every way- it makes it easier to relate to each other! In terms of significant others, I think opposites attract but that it doesn’t necessarily work out.
Theresa @ActiveEggplant says
I love the two different eggs comparison for you & your friend! I’m super different from most of my friends – I’m 6’0 w/ dark hair & I’m sometimes fairly loud…but most of my friends are 5’5 or shorter and they’re always really quiet (compared to me anyway!). Me and my hubs are pretty much like that too…well, except we’re both tall. But he’s super shy & I’m the outgoing one!
Lizzy @ runbakerace says
that sushi looks awesome! Your pictures are making me hungry. I have friends that are very opposite of me 🙂

Run Tara Run says
We had a date night last night, too! We went for hibachi so that the boyfriend could get steak and I could get sushi. It was delicious and an unusual way to celebrate St. Patricks day!
Karla says
I think DD coffee rocks. Definitely my favorite coffee to buy to brew at home. My best friend & I are black & white… as different as possible. I’m 5’7 and blonde. She’s 4’11 and brunette. Up until recently she was always incredibly extroverted and I was shy as all get out but I’m getting better. We are polar opposites but we fit like glue =)
Anna says
Looks like a wonderful date night! Love the sushi!!
Do you have plans to update your weight loss page again soon?
runeatrepeat says
Yeah, I actually weighed in today but was up a pound. I suspect it’s because of all the sushi and soy sauce last night! Boo. I basically drink the soy sauce when I go out for sushi…bad call.
lauren says
salmon dinner looks yummmmay! do u make your eggs for the sandwich in the microwave in a bowl?
runeatrepeat says
Yes, I microwave them in a non-stick sprayed bowl for about 2 minutes. That’s about 90% of the time lately. I used to make real egg scrambles in a pan – need to get back to that 🙂
Jennifer says
I’m so glad someone else asked you the same thing I was thinking!! I was going to ask how your eggs always look so nice and well put together. I’ll have to try this tomorrow morning!!
Dana says
My friends are MUCH older than me, its kinda weird! But I seem to get a long with people who are 10+ years older than me. haha
I love that picture of you too, you look beautiful. and i’m lovin the side braid!
Kristin says
You look fab in that green eye shadow!
Gavi @ Gavi Gets Going! says
Your green eye shadow is so cute! It looks like you definitely celebrated St. Patrick’s Day in style. My boyfriend and I are very similar, but my best friend and I are complete opposites. She’s my oldest and most loyal friend and we know each other through and through. I would like to believe that we complement each other! Enjoy your Friday!
