Lauren's presentation and questions really got me thinking about thinking more about what I eat and how that fuel gives me the best energy possible. Like so many of you who posted responses, I don't always think about nutrition when I'm eating. When I have been in training for certain events, I think a lot more about energy and endurance. However, I need to keep those same things in mind when I'm not in training as well. I have already been adding more veggies to my diet and eating a bit more in the morning instead of racing to work and just drinking my coffee. Thanks, Lauren, for the great information.
Another important tip I received some time ago was to hydrate first thing in the morning. After being asleep for 6-7 hours (some of you longer), we need water. I have been drinking a large cup of water in the mornings before I leave for work. It seems to make me feel a lot better. I then have some yogurt or fruit or granola with my coffee. The water makes a real difference.
