IM ALIIIIVVVVEEE!

You want to know the worst part about being sick? That moment where you are so congested you have to sleep with your mouth open because that's the only way you are able to breathe.

Scratch that. The worst part about being sick is when you are so stuffed up you can only breathe through your mouth AND you are trying to EAT! It's not like you can put food in your ears and taste it. That sounded super weird, didn't it? Could you imagine eating through your ears as being the norm? Like that would be the way of life? And this is where my sick brain is at...

Now that that thought has left the building here's a new thought - I haven't been to the gym in 2 weeks!! That's 14 days. Me so sad. Last week for some unforgivable reason I told myself "let's eat garbage and not go to the gym" and I stuck it through. All the way. And then this past week I get sick? So I have zero energy and zero appetite. Wednesday I had a protein shake, a banana and (3) samosas. Yesterday - a protein shake, banana, sweet potato fries ... and get this - wine! I thought I was better so I went out with Kristina and her little human (Sydney). We walked around, took the bus together and played Pokemon Go. Everything was fine and dandy until my nose got stuffed up again and waking up today... ugh. It's like the cold came back twice as hard ringing in my ears "Hey Anna! Forget about me?!"

As I'm writing this blog I have sweat slowly dripping down my forehead. I'm awake after a 3 hour nap wearing 2 shirts, a big oversized cozy sweater, dri fit leggings and socks (my feet are covered in Vicks vapour rub). Today is the day I get healthy. I'm at mama Biss' place and she made her super awesome yummy and delicious homemade chicken noodle soup. I could bathe in it. Well not really, I would end up burning a couple layers of skin off. What is up with my brain thinking of such unusual things? And now I'm picturing it... great. Maybe it's time for another chug of water and a nap. Stay tuned.

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
