Finally.

Let's get one thing out of the way before I continue this blog: I am not going to the gym today.

So far I have had a great day and I'm on cloud 9. This is the start of something new and I really, really hope this works out. I haven't worked out today and I'm almost at my goal of 10K. The most I've done so far is walk around Wal-mart looking for a new laptop (yes, one was purchased) and sweeping /cleaning my brothers old office.

Finally - I have a working laptop
Finally - someone appreciates my hard work and applies that recognition to me
Finally - everything seems about right.

Everything is quickly coming together. When the deal is done, I'll share more. As for now, I'll update with my nutrition and workout
Yesterday's 
Dinner: 6 mild wings, carrots and celery, cesar salad with chicken (1/2 portion) and water to drink.. SHOCKER right? For once I went out and did not order wine or alcohol as a beverage

Workout:
5 sets of 10----
Horizontal calf 130 lb
Hip abduction: 70 lb (I did Adduction first and was literally so WEAK after my 5th set)
Hip adduction: 130 lb
Seated leg press: 55 lb
+ 20 minute cardio - 10.0 incline at 3.0 speed

Even though I'm upping my weights for my legs, the hardest part of yesterday's workout I would have to say was the cardio session. Incline 10 is insane .. I was pretty much in lunge position, taking long steps. Sweat dripping down my face within the first 8 minutes and I wasn't even walking fast. My booty was jiggling though - in a good way of course.

Today's
Meal 1: (2) bites of a protein bar - I was incredibly nervous - it was incredible because I was only meeting up with my brother...
Meal 2: 1/2 leftover cesar salad from last night + 2/3 baked skinless boneless chicken breast

I told myself this week I was going to eat low carb, high protein and high vegetables - what should I eat now?

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
