About 2 years ago I was in really great shape, and it just fit right into my schedule. I was working from 10:30-7 and went to the gym right after work and then went home ate dinner, showered and went to bed. I was to the point where I felt a pang of guilt if I didn't go to the gym! And I believed that I was getting in shape and I did. For me results are like those people who are in focus groups and some get the Advil to cure their headache and some get the placebo... and a lot of times the placebo will cure someones headache because they think it is advil. Or better yet... a 16 year old who is drinking O'Douls and becomes fall over drunk after 3 beers. So therefore I think that if I keep positive and stay optimistic that I will see great results! Or atleast I hope!
When I took Cosmo for her walk this morning the sunrise was so beautiful (I'll post pictures below)!
Then I went home and did my 10 minute workout, and today was "Buns"! Luckily my arms don't feel like they are going to fall off today! But my legs always seem to feel the burn! Which is good because they are my major problem area.. including my "buns"! I have like a bakers dozen on my backside, and I would really like to cut that dozen down! Tomorrow I am doing abs! Which is also another area that I really want to focus on... since I have more rolls than a bakery! (Decided to go with the bakery lingo today)
So yesterday I broke down and went to starbucks and got one of their amazing brownies... SO GOOD! And I also got a medium black iced tea lemonade sweetened! Delicious! I hate whenever I say medium and they are like grande? or whatever lingo matches the sizes! I'm like obviously you know what I mean! I just feel really ridiculous using their lingo! Also, I feel like I need to bring a lap top in there just to order! EVERYONE in there is on their computer... do these people not have internet at their house or office? Or do they get better ideas by having people look at them and be like oh wow... look at them they are so important because they are writing in public! What I really think their reasoning is, is that they forgot to pay their comcast bill and their internet got shut off! I think I'll bring a desktop computer down there and set it up... would that be weird? I think it would be hilarious! (I hope Dane Cook isn't reading this... he's going to steal my jokes!) haha
So I digress~! After my epic fail with the 300 calorie brownie and 170 calorie tea I got out of work early! Love those days!
I cooked beef tacos with brown rice/lettuce/tomatoes for dinner and I had fresh raspberries for dessert! Soo good :) I'm not sure if any of this is really truely healthy but I am sure it is healthier than my diet before!
I have been starving this week... I'm assuming it's because I have been more active and working out! But this morning I had a strawberry special K bar before I worked out, then when I got in the office I had the strawberry special k crisp things. Then I was too lazy to peel my orange so I had my 100 calorie back of brownies (probably not the best idea)! But I am still kind of hungry.. and still too lazy to peel my orange! I'm blaming that on my arm workout from yesterday though! Who wants to peel an orange for 5 minutes when I did like 15 push ups yesterday and a bunch of other work outs!
I cannot wait to do abs tomorrow! I really want to do my Jillian Michaels 6 pack in 6 weeks, but I haven't been able to get myself out of bed at 5:15 yet to do the work out. I mean that's 5:15, 4 or 5 times a week for 6 weeks! That's craziness! I could say I'd work out after work but I know that is not going to happen! I'm too tired from dealing with all the awesome people I deal with everyday. By awesome people I mean the people who run me over with strollers trying to get off the train, the people who don't get out of the way when people are trying to get off the train, the gross people who clip their nails while waiting for the train, the people who cough all over everyone and don't cover their mouth, the people who hate everyone and are just rude, the guy in front of me at the 12 items or less lane that has atleast 20 items and needs have a full out conversation with the cashier and take an hour to slide his debit card, my neighbor who refuses to get a trash bin of his own so he uses our trash, and stacks so much stuff in it that we can't fit our own trash in their, then plays baseball in the street with his son and hit my car with the baseball and tells me it's not a big deal instead of apologizing! Well, now that I've got that off my chest! All of that stress throughout the week makes me just want to drink a bottle of wine to just relax! But, instead of wine... I have been washing the dishes a lot more! Whatever is theraputic I guess!
Any Positive advice is much appreciated!
I'm going to attempt to peel this pesky orange!
Toodles!
