So much for an adventure

This so called adventure sucks.
I was supposed to commit myself to a healthier lifestyle and I'll tell you right now - I didn't change anything. The only change that I made was starting a blog.

I told myself that creating a blog would make me more accountable but if anything - it's been the complete opposite. Lately when I write, it seems forced like a chore. I can't even.

I weighed myself the other day and yep, back at 191 lbs. I'm so disgusted with myself. That same day before hopping in the shower I noticed fat on my back. Like BAD! Nothing is more unappealing in my eyes then back fat. I'm looking at my back, moving my arms in different motions trying to find an accurate exercise to rid myself of that extra meat and I couldn't find one.

Apparently LAT pull down is awesome for back fat. I'm hoping it does the trick. Unfortunately now since my work is so close to home I no longer have a bus pass. So I can't just hop on the bus and go to the gym - I have to walk there. And don't get my wrong I'm totally fine with that. There's just one problem - it's been raining like f*cking retarded lately. Who wants to walk in the rain for 70-80 minutes? Smh. Some days I feel like I can't win - like the world is against me. Or maybe it's just Mother Nature.

Anywho, I have boxing again tonight and I am PUMPED. I really want to continue with boxing. It helps me channel all my negative energy. And I can't wait until these classes are over because I'm going to treat myself to a good quality punching bag. Maybe that's how I'll get ripped - beast mode Anna boxing !! Lol I can't even imagine it.

Lunch is over. Back to work. Stay tuned.

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'...

Trying not to get too sick =(

Don't hate me but I did not log my food this week. Trust me, you don't even want to know. Just assume the worst. I told myself I wasn't going to go to the gym or eat healthy and guess what - it was a complete success! Now it's Monday and I am whole heartedly dedicated to getting back to my usual self. Except there's one problem: I'm catching a cold. With that being said, I am so thankful I had a day to meal prep before this sickness gets any worse. Last night I made my 98% shepherd's pie (thanks Kristina 😊 ) with Yves original ground round, julienne carrots and frozen mixed vegetables. Mashed potatoes I added greek yogurt, butter and a splash of almond milk (as seen in the picture below). Kristina, Christine and some green Strong bow.  A reminder to self. Even though I'm feeling a bit under the weather I'm still going to continue this healthy lifestyle and make the necessary changes to build a stronger me - inside and out...

Exhausted.

I am definitely feeling the after affects of eating crappy foods. Do you ever feel oddly tired? Especially since you're well rested and haven't over worked your body..? That's me right now. Although it's not odd at all. I noticed when I eat foods that have little to zero nutritional value my body reacts in a sluggish state. Over the weekend I indulged to a point where I just feel exhausted. I'm staring at the computer blogging and I can barely keep my eyes open . It's lunch time thank goodness so I could take a nap if I wanted to. However, that would be such a tease to my eyes and mental state. Today started off super frustrating as my co-worker did not show up. Generally Monday's are insanely busy. The office is closed on Fridays so we have messages from Thursday evening all the way up until Sunday night. The number of messages ranges between 20-40 and usually 30 (or so) fax messages. Returning those messages alone while having the phones ringing in ...
