Day 46: It's the WEEKEND!!! BE PREPARED!!!

Hey yall!

It is FFFFFFRRRRRIIIIIIDDDDDDAAAAAYYYY! 

I love the weekend and so happy it is here once again!!!

This morning I made a quick breakfast by cooking some scrambled eggs with a little bit of 2% cheddar cheese, ground flax seed (great fiber and couldn't taste it in my eggs), chopped tomato, turkey bacon and wrapped it in a spinach tortilla from Whole Foods.  Only $2.50 for the tortillas, same price as a brand you could get a Wal-Mart but way yummier!!!  It wrapped it in the tortilla and walked out the door.  It was quicky and easy!!!

Yesterday evening I made trout for the first time and it was really good.  All I did was pan sear it with a little bit of olive oil, sprinkled a little sea salt and ground black pepper on it and drizzled it with some lemon juice from a fresh lemon.  I cooked it on both sides for about 3 to 4 minutes each.  It was pretty firm but flaky so it didn't mess up in the pan.  It was light and really yummy!  It was so flavorful too.  I had a small sweet potato with it and steamed cauliflower!!! It really was a great meal!!! You should try it sometime!!!

The weekend is here and it is time to get your mind right and do your best to stay on track.

I want to share some advice from D Stut who comments often on my blog and gives me great ideas and keeps me encouraged.  He said if you know you are going to have a social event during the weekend then eat lean and train hard throughout the week.  Very great information!!! Also, look ahead at the menu of where you may be eating at and have a plan of action so you do not get all excited and just order it up and order things that are just the worst for you.  Stay in moderation.  If you drink, think club soda with vodka and what not instead of high sugar drinks like margaritas, beers, etc. 

Now I know we are all human so if you must indulge in something like a margarita maybe try a skinny margarita or if you really want the real deal regular margarita then I would suggest just have one and then move on to sipping a shot or something with less calories . This is especially vital information if you are in the beginning stages of working out.  If you have more than you planned, you should just try to put in some extra cardio or high intensity exercise to take off a few of those extra calories the next day!!!!!

ENJOY YOUR WEEKEND FOLKS!!!!
