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 ...

Updates and Basil, Cilantro, Garlic Bread

I realize I haven't blogged in quite some time. Here's some updates since my last blog: - I moved - It wasn't my choice but it had to be done. The lady that owned our condo wanted us to buy it or leave. So we left (there were way too many things to be fixed and wasn't worth our time, energy and money). Now I live in the basement of my mother in law's home with my boyfriend, Jack. - I no longer consume animals or animal by products. I'm 90% vegan and I say 90 % because I cannot consume vegan cheese. Has anyone ever tried it? IT'S LEGIT THE SCUM OF THE EARTH. I eat cheddar cheese (only) once, twice or three times a month. So let's get down to business, to the reason why I made you come to this entry on my blog. The main way I cook in this basement is with my slow cooker. I came across a recipe on Pinterest for Vegan basil pesto bread which obviously sounds delicious. *Word to the non - vegans, pesto contains parmesan. There was a recipe to make vegan...

Goals

Every day I try to accomplish mini goals. Today isn't just a regular day. Not like any other day.. no no no. It's a family get together. Family get togethers are like "it's someone's birthday you can have a little" "it's a celebration, have some wine / booze it would be a sin not to" "why aren't you having any of my birthday cake? So rude. Just a sliver!" Etc. I am thankful that my family understands and respects my choices of lifestyle. Not every family does. And some people just don't have the self control / will power. I get that. I've been down that road many times. And this is why I make mini goals. With that being said, today I propose to you my mini goals and then I will blog by the end of the night (or tomorrow) if I achieved them and what exactly happened... 1. Complete Speed 1.0 2. Reach 10,000 steps (even though my goal is 13,000.. usually on weekends I barely make it to 7,000) 3. Stay low carb 4. ACTUALL...
