Happy Thursday!!!! Tomorrow is Friday and I know you are ready for the weekend.....I know I AM!!
I will say first that I will upload the Minestrone recipe on Saturday some time. I want to make sure I get the pictures edited nicely and have directions written just right! It was an awesome soup. So good I had it for lunch and now dinner. I do want to add some chicken to it next time for a little more protein but it is a great veggie -bean- pasta type soup!
Today went well! So glad I have another weekend to relax. I am going to plan my meals a little more strategically and buy more snacks so I can pair carbs and proteins together. That combo is best for keeping you fuller longer as well as getting in the nutrients and what not that you need daily!
I had a cardio recovery today with INSANITY so it went smooth. Tomorrow is pure cardio so I can kiss my fresh done hair do good bye! But like the First lady, Michelle Obama, says, "You can't let your hair determine your health". And it is so true. I know this pertains more to woman than men but it is a motto that I keep in my thoughts.
Saturday will be the last day of my first FULL MONTH of INSANITY!!!! I can't believe I really stuck to the plan and followed it! I am so excited and proud! My reward is a massage and a pedicure so Saturday will be a great relaxing day! I can't wait!

Congratulations on completing a month! My biggest problem is that I truly hate to sweat. That is a hard obstacle to overcome.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! I appreciate it! And yes I had to get over the sweat thing because I didn't like it either well at least to the extent that my hair got all rough and hard to manage from the sweaty hair. I found a way to make my hair work better so I am glad about that. Don't let the sweat determine your health. You can do it!!!
