chive breath and bad pineapple

So how’s everyone’s Wednesday going?  Mine’s fantastic, considering tomorrow is my “Friday” for the week, it’s even better.  You see Fridays we are done at 1:00 so that’s mean since we have Friday as a holiday, tomorrow we are off at 1pm. Wahoo!  I’m so ready for a long weekend.

Workout: Day 4 LiveFit Trainer – Shoulders & Abs

I was a little nervous about this workout today.  My shoulders aren’t the strongest, and I didn’t want to make a fool of myself at the gym.  I decided I should go with some lighter weights to make sure I still have good form, instead of trying to lift heavy and be sloppy and potentially hurt myself.  I think that’s where a lot of people go wrong.  I think most folks think that they have to lift heavy to get results, but if your body isn’t there yet you can really do some damage.  It’s better to lift light, build up your muscle gradually and over time be able to increase the weights.  I’m not looking to impress anyone down at the gym so I guess I shouldn’t care how heavy my weights are.

I know I said yesterday that I feel like I didn’t get a good burn on my legs, but I am starting to feel it today, especially in my quads and calves.  Not enough to make me walk funny, but enough to feel it, I still might take it up a notch next week, but we’ll see.

brekkie was egg scramble and a naked waffle

I put entirely to many chives in my eggs this morning.  I have some growing in our backyard that I picked, I love chives but this was a bit much – and made my breath smell

am = coconut yogurt and pumpkin bars

 This yogurt was good - had flakes of real coconut, but it had a ton of sugar :( probably wont get it again for that reason

i added a tbsp of pb2 to this

pm = chicken muffins

Another Jamie Eason recipe.  These are really good, a nice punch of protein before my workout

Dinner = turkey burger, green beans w/almonds, cutie

I bought another pineapple over the weekend and decided to cut it up tonight.  Turns out, all pineapples are NOT created equal.  Its ok, but didn't change my life.  It had a lot of gross brown spots that I had to cut off.  I give this a sideways thumb, not bad not great...

I have three "rest" days now until my next gym workout but I'm hoping to get out for bike ride tomorrow since I'll have the afternoon off.  So be on the lookout for me in spandex!
