V-Day meets Aunt Flow

It's Valentine's Day! And you know what that means? AUNT FLOW DECIDED TO INVITE HERSELF TO THE PARTY. No yay. Booo.

Aunt flow is being a D-bag to me today, a royal, painful D-bag.  I took one look at my calendar (in my phone because that's where I normally plan my workouts) and I see Speed 1.0 and total body circuit. Nope. Not going to happen. This is the second week of Focus T 25 I messed up IN A ROW. I should be killing my third week but no, life happens or I give in. So I've decided to still do a double day but at least start my day off slow. Meeting a friend for noon for a 2 hour walk, then come home and start roasting some vegetables.

Valentine's Day is just like any other day. It's not a reason to cheat. It's just a day of wearing red as far as I'm concerned. Not to sound like a b*tch but people should be embracing every day with their loved ones. Yeah it's nice to get chocolate on occasions but it should be eaten with a cheat meal not "oh em gee. Flowers and chocolate for me wowwwzzers". "He must really love me" . Honestly it makes woman look a certain way. That we are the more romantic. We want materialist junk. We want our men to bow down to us as we are the queen. "This day is all about me". What do the men get? Oh wait. Is "steak and BJ day" still a thing? Why doesn't hallmark celebrate that? I don't see that celebration day in the dollar store.

Although this blog entry started off about women, it's going to end with men and be dedicated to every man out there. I cheers you for your solid good work. Keeping up with your woman's crap. For everything she says, does, and although she may not appear to appreciate you - she does. She may just forget to tell or show you but she does. This is for you fellas.



Anywho here's how my day and night unfolded.
Daytime: everything was making me angry. Literally everything. All I wanted to do was go for a walk and drink some wine. Guess which one happened? Yep the wine. I started to feel guilty while toasting my vegetables so in between I would run on the spot or do jumping jacks.

Next blog I'll talk about my low carb shepherds pie. I have yet to taste it because for a Valentine's Day treat we had pizza. And it was so so soooooo good. There are leftovers and it's taking everything in me not to eat them. Especially because I just woke up and I'm hungry.

Dill Avocado Pasta Salad

Remember those leftovers from the quesadillas? I found a use for them. I would like to call this a scramble of leftovers with fresh dill, yogurt and avocado - because that's pretty much what it is. - cooked noodles (I used penne - roughly 2 cups - leftover quesadilla filling - 1/2 avocado - 2 tablespoons of plain greek yogurt - roughly tblsp of fresh dill - small handful of shredded old cheese Combine all and eat. I swear I didn't use a lot of dill but using the fresh stuff, it really comes through. And I just LOVE dill... it's the best. It's the tastiest herb (in my opinion). Staring at my lunch this morning - before I combined the ingredients I was thinking to myself "what the fck Anna. What were you thinking this looks absurd. Good luck". Especially since the avocado was turning brown.. it was very unappetizing and then one bite and I was hooked. I'm glad I didn't give this to Jack. I don't think he would have liked it. Recent

Boxing!!

Do you ever get so ticked off you just want to punch something? Me too. All the damn time. Sometimes I'll even punch the wall.. no, not smart at all but it happens. A friend has been going to Boxing lessons for about a month now (I think) and I always wanted to join but I'm extremely terrified - I'm mostly afraid my form will be incorrect and it will be a one on one experience. Other than that, I'm absolutely pumped! I really hope I enjoy myself because I hear boxing is an INSANE WORKOUT. There's been a Groupon for this place since forever, I always saw it being recommended to me on my account and I figure - about time. I better get my ass in gear! If I learn the proper form and enjoy it, I'm 100 % sure I'm going to get a dummy or a punching bag and start punching when I'm angry. I already checked out prices - expensive - of course for the good quality and cheap for crappy bags that will break in no time. I hope it's all upper body though and n

Today is going to be great

I was supposed to finish up this post yesterday. So the title 'Today is going to be great' was about March 16 aka yesterday. And the beauty of writing a blog about a previous day is that you can say what went right or wrong. Update: it was a great day. I still have yet to make it to the gym but I did make it a goal that one way or another I was going to get my steps, and I did. I will describe this later. Here is my food journal: For a morning snack (after my raisin bran muffin) I had a bag of salad. In the morning I'll pack romaine, croutons and dressing - in a separate container - then add the dressing to the bag itself and shake it like it's no ones business. It's genius really. Every leaf has an even coat and call me crazy but I think it just tastes better. Yesterday I used ranch dressing. My favourite meal made by mama biss - basmati rice with chicken, peaches, plum tomatoes and I added steamed broccoli. It's legit perfection. I have no ide
