UPDATE. UPDATE. UPDATE

I SUCK.
I haven't blogged in forever. The job change happened YAY and I am so much more at ease... well in a way. I am a bit over whelmed because I don't necessarily understand the construction terminology but who cares - I'm actually appreciated here and that's all that matters.

I mainly came back to blogging to stay accountable for my food intake and workouts and will you look at that? I woke up on time, worked out my biceps and triceps (mostly my triceps) before walking to work! My arm pressed up against my body is HUGE. I feel like I look like the hulk. Hopefully I can keep at this.

So far today: 73 minute walk (got locked out of work so a walk was forced upon me) + bi's and tri's.
 

 As for food I didn't pack a shake - biggest regret - had celery for my breakfast. Snack I had my leftover lunch. For my actual lunch I had more celery and leftover of my lunch and now I'm hangry again.

I've gone back to Hip Hop Abs and currently I'm on Week 1 Day 5 and I'm going pretty good. I love that I walk to and from work - and literally it's my only way to get to work so I'm forced every day rain or shine walking.. Then after work I get home early enough to fit in a workout.

Ultimately some days I would prefer to work out at home in the morning, walk to work and walk to the gym (took about 60 minutes ) then proceed with weights at the gym. I would only do that twice a week. I'm not about the cardio life anymore.

Anywho - that's my update for fitness, food and health. A storm is brewing and I'm wearing my new runners. I can't get these babies too wet. 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...
