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?

Sleeping.

I feel like I've always taken advantage of sleep. The power of sleep - not one of life's wonders. You get a good night sleep, you're able to function properly the next day. I never truly appreciated the act of sleep until last night. I'm in bed roughly by 9 pm maybe 9:30 pm and I'm a light sleeper. (perfect mom quality might I add) Jack on the other hand goes to bed around 10:30 pm or 11:00 pm. He admitted he has FOMO - F ear O f M issing O ut but in regards to TV / Facebook videos so he's up watching something so that's the reason why he doesn't go to bed at the same time as me. Well last night the Leaf game was on - and I can only assume that they lost because I didn't hear any screaming at the TV then again I didn't hear anger either and Jack's pretty loud when it comes to Leaf games (major hockey fan). I only heard around 11:19 pm that he was heading to bed. And then the loud breathing started. I can't really tell if it'...

I'm hungry. Again.

Ever hear (and feel) that rumble in your stomach and wonder if you're truly hungry or just thirsty? I do, all the time too. So far today I drank 3 of my water bottles (each at 25 oz) and about to refill for bottle #4. I'm 99.9 % sure I'm hungry because a) I haven't eaten since 11:00 am (and it only makes sense I'm hungry) b) Starting to get a headache and c) I just chugged some water and I have that weird feeling in my stomach like - Hey, your water count is too high for the amount of food you have eaten which is practically nothing. Low carb, high protein.  And man does it feel good to eat. Honestly, it feels like I have been starving for a day and I could dance around in happiness after that first initial bite. I am going to devour this bowl of food.  Only 15 more minutes until I have to get back to work. Why does lunch always disappear so fast when I am on the computer but when I am outside for a walk it seems like its forever  Hopefully K-sta...

Oh hello

Hey there stranger, it's been awhile, hasn't it? I don't even know where to begin!! It feels nice and calm that my head is screwed in and I don't want it to EXPLODE. The speech went great. It was short and sweet - Jack went off his speech and did an amazing job. I was really impressed, his was pretty sweet. We were a bit taken a back because there was no podium. Jack wrote his speech on his phone.. so it was a bit weird for him but so did a couple other people. Actually one, it was one other person and it was Jamaal's family member so Jack shouldn't feel awkward or anything. YAY! Christine is married. I'm so happy for her. She has the whole week off - lucky goose. Then again, today is my Friday. Tomorrow is good friday so that's a day off but because I usually have fridays off, I get a lieu day so I GET MONDAY OFF TOO!!! Major smiles up in here. So lets get this show on the road shall we? Okay so this is what happens when you forget your protein ...
