Leg day!

Last night I said I was grabbing dinner with Jack and his mom and I stated I was going to get a steak and vegetables and not pizza or pasta. Well, technically I still didn't get either of the two however we did end up getting a snack platter which included oven roasted wings, cheese loaf, garlic bread and cactus cut potato chips with (2) dips. I indulged a tad.. I really wanted a salad but didn't want to speak up. She had her heart set on that platter. I really don't like being the one person making a big deal about my lifestyle choices so forgive me, I gave in.

Today I've been a good little Anna.
Breakfast: 1/2 protein shake, 1/4 croissant
Snack: pre workout, 1/2 banana and a handful of mixed nuts - Surprisingly this kept me full for 4 hours. I JUST had my lunch (as seen below)


This is the last (finally) of the leftovers plus I combined it with mama biss stir fry. I'm not 100 % sure what's in it but she did mention she used red cabbage, spinach, ginger, soya sauce, and garlic. I'm 99.9 % sure there are potatoes in it too. I'm pretty confident because I love me some potatoes. Mashed potatoes is my absolute favourite way to prepare potatoes and my mom makes the BEST. 

Haven't worked out yet today. Another day where I haven't been concerned about cardio. It's been raining all day so it's not like I can go for a walk even if I wanted to. Plus, my boots broke. Hopefully mom can fix them. I still can't believe it's coming to an end for April and I'm still to this day wearing my winter coat. Smh. 

Today I'm going to work out my legs using the machines. This time I'm going to attempt the same weights just more reps. 5 set 10 to be exact... will see how that goes. Stay tuned.

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

I really hope I can hold onto this

Monday, July 31st, 2017 is my time to SHINE! I'm committing myself to a major change and I think I'm ready for it. Social calendar is cancelled which means less expenses and no drinking. Time to take a big breath and continue on... I'll be starting Focus T25 (I love my Shaun T workouts). 5:45 am every morning (hopefully) I'll be rolling out of bed - yes I'm gross - I'm going to sleep in my workout gear - grab my water and tie up my runners and popping that DVD in. I re-reviewed the Nutrition Guide and I absolutely love when shit is written out for me and I don't have to think twice about a recipe or what I'm going to eat. There are a number of options which is AWESOME so I can pick what I want, and sadly (for Jack) prep for breakfast, snacks, lunch and dinner. Ultimately I want to work out in the morning and do minor cardio after work. But who's to say this will all happen - I'm just baby steppin' so far. My #1 GOAL is to STICK with

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
