I finally made it back.

Even though it pissed cats and dogs I hauled my butt to the gym today. I didn't make it yesterday - I gave into temptations instead. I wanted wings but I wasn't necessarily hungry for wings - I just wanted the wings. I really need to get out of the cheating habit. We were doing so well too!

Going out on a week night seriously fcked me up. So I'm thinking because I've been bad since Monday I might as well complete the cycle.

Today's "nutrition":
Breakfast: pizza
Lunch: pizza with dipping sauce
Dinner: pizza with dipping sauce
Post dinner: green tea.
So I went to the gym today. My brother let me leave early so I finally went! I worked out my tri's and bi's + chest and my love handles. I would have to say my stomach and my upper body is the most out of shape. I love my legs - I can get away with not having that thigh gap. My legs are pretty strong too. I mean c'mon they carry around a 5'9 woman almost 200 lbs all day long. And I used to go for 2-3 hour walks at a time! Kudos to my legs y'know.

I hope my arms won't be tired for tomorrow. I signed up for Aqua fit with my gym - well not really, it's just offered with the membership. I'm excited. Usually on vacation I'll join in the old ladies in the pool and do the workout. Treading water and walking in the water against the wave of it and feeling that resistance is amazing and a pretty good workout if you ask me.
 So my plan for tomorrow as follows:
Morning workout prior to aqua fit (lower body + cardio) - take that fit bit friends! You are in for a treat!! (I usually am hungover on weekends and don't even work out)
- Get together with Kstar and grab some groceries, do some pre meal prep and make either roasted chick peas or roasted mixed nuts .. honestly, you gotta try my nuts - AH MAZE ING! Especially when I add some garlic powder, paprika and cayenne.

Then meeting with another friend at the same place I was yesterday when I had the wings aka Wild Wing and then hopefully a date night with Jack!

Totally hoping Jack wants to do a gym session on Sunday to make up for our slacking this past week.
Check out todays cardio. I don't even remember walking so much today... anywho - we are currently catching up on Community and Jack's waiting for me to finish this blog. Ps - I gave into another temptation - WINE! Stay tuned.

Update on goals

Hello again. It's meeee... 🙃 Okay so goal 1 ✔️ Completed Speed 1.0 with mama bear. I completed the day with 10,162 steps. My dessert was literally a sliver of cake (sister called it a crumb) haha with 2 tablespoons of Greek yogurt, few strawberries and walnuts. And I made a low carb lasagna and guess what? It was a huge success! So my mom makes this beautiful hollandaise based lasagna with chicken and asparagus. I took it upon myself to grad 1/2 cauliflower head and grated the stems of broccoli as my base. Did a layer of the sauce, chicken, asparagus, broccoli, cheese, and added (4) spinach noodles for texture. Topped it with Parmesan cheese and BOOM. Magic was born. Other lasagnas for the family included turkey with tomato sauce, and then (2) variations of the hollandaise other than my own- one with broccoli and the other asparagus. I was absolutely thrilled to find out mine was a success. Especially since I thought it was going to be like soup. Don't forget that when ...

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'...

Rant on perfumes / cologne

Found this rant in my iPhone notebook: Ladies. Why do you bathe in perfume? Some men do it too but I had to bring it up for a little rant because I was just outside walking to the bus stop and all I could smell was perfume and I was still 10 or 15 steps away. There was a woman waiting in the shelter. Decked out as if she was going downtown to pick up an older man in the financial district. Either that or she works in a top notch hair salon... I can't even make a joke properly because my head is still fuzzy from that smell. When I am in a closed space and someone sprays perfume (an abundance of it) I get light headed accompanied by a headache. It's not fun at all. I'm not the only one either which is the reason why most gym change rooms have signs not allowing perfumes to be sprayed. Same with certain departments in the hospital. Nurses shouldn't wear perfume because of the contact with some patients. Anyways, all I'm saying is - even though YOU can't ...
