My posts should be about normal now that I am back home for awhile. Had to be out of town the last two weekends and had lots of work stuff to but for the most part kept track of my food and workouts until last weekend!!!!!
Friends! I love them so much especially my OKC crew! The last two weekends we have had a girl's night where we cooked. Shout out to Kamaria for the bomb homemade pizza crust and great margaritas, and Spark's yummy salsa!!!! We did a few things to make some healthy choices but for the most part it may not have been the best choice but it was totally worth it and I did put in extra work with some exercises so that I could do my best to work some of it off. I love my friends and I hope you have some in your life that are as great as mine!!! Don't know what I would do without them. :)
Okay enough with the mushy stuff lol lets get back to business!
Today I ate a small top sirloin, eggs, and sauteed spinach for breakfast. Had to try it, a friend (DStut) always talks about trying that so I went ahead and did it. It was not bad at all to not have the "regular" type breakfast.
For lunch I had smoked salmon, spinach salad with slivered almonds and raspberry vinaigrette, and a V8. Dinner is still up in the air so guess I will post about that tomorrow.
I went to the gym yesterday with the BF and he pushed me good. It was my first day back in the gym and we did chest and tri's. I did a burnout with tricep pulldowns (look it up if you don't know what I mean) and I can feel them today. I liked doing them though, it was tough but I know it is effective! I need to do some cardio today and probably legs. I am not sure if I want to add back or abs to this workout. Any suggestions????
Well all in all things are good. Lost 24 lbs on INSANITY and doing right with me meals ( besides some "treat" meals...thanks friends lol but so totally worth it). I can see it in my stomach and thighs more and have a little more shape to my arms. I still have a ways to go so gonna buckle down especially since I am home now and not gonna be traveling too much! I think it is funny about how this lifestyle can really change you. Yes, I indulged some with my friends but I did watch my portions and didn't try to over eat. I consciously thought about what I was doing and eating and although didn't make all the right choices I was aware of what I was doing!!!!
So anyway started the week of right and gonna keep it that way!!!!
Any progress on your part? How has your lifestyle change been going. Remember if you mess up just try to get back on track and not let it be two weeks or months until you start back on track. BE looking for tomorrow's post for a new recipe and some good links!!!!
HAPPY EATING EVERYONE!

So.stinkin.Proud! 24 lbs?! Wow! Who even knew you had it to lose? I'm so happy for your making a lifestyle change to get a healthier you. love you lots and keep up the great job!
ReplyDeleteThank ya sis! Appreciate ya! And I was in a hurry to post since I was headed to a private lesson. Thought I typed 22 pounds but Thanks. Lots came probably from my thighs, stomach and a few other places. Thanks for the motivation and support! Love u!
ReplyDeleteTold you non-traditional breakfast was popping! I'm the guy that will eat a beef patty and arugula with eggplant for breakfast!
ReplyDeleteYES add back and abs to your workouts...your body is one WHOLE thing..so you will need to build a strong back more importantly a strong core!...DEADLIFT/PULLUPS are good for your back..no ...they are GREAT and they engage your glutes/hamstrings
also hanging knee raises and if you're advanced...knees to elbow or toes to bar!
DSTUT
I did Back and bi's last night actually. I will look up the dead lifts. I like that it works more than one area. I did some knee raises tonight too. With the dead lifts do you do 3 sets of 12 or more of a burn out style?
DeleteYea the breakfast was pretty good!
Thanks!
