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...

Phew. Really dodged a bullet there.

PRAISE THE LORD. Hallelujah! I was so prepared to blog earlier today about how nervous I was regarding this afternoon. I had a killer workout / training session planned with a friend and it was just confirmed that it's cancelled and we both rescheduled for next Wednesday. Just thinking about it was giving me an anxiety attack (okay that was far fetched) but it gave me the sweats! This woman was training with a Personal Trainer at GoodLife Fitness so the workouts are intense and now she makes her own loosely based on the PT she had prior. She was afraid to tell me what part of the body we would workout because she thought I would cancel! I'm always up for the challenge I'm just terrified of trying new things (alone). If I have a partner or someone there with me, it's not so bad but doing something new without any guidance and possibly "failing" .. I'm not into. Speaking of trying something new, I'm 99.9 % sure I'm going to try boxing. There'...
