Friday Recap

I got in late Friday night so doing my blog was the furthest thing from my mind.

The morning started off bad.  I went to leave to go to work and my car would not come out of park.  I have had this problem with the car before, but now it seems like it has started doing it again.   So i ended up staying at home and working from home.   Since I was home, I was able to get my new possessions from my neighbor.  He is moving and has given me bar stools and a corner shelf!  So I took possession of those today.  I need to dust and clean them, but I love em!  Then I had plans for a dinner & movie with Gwen, who is leaving Cali to move to AZ.  So this was our farewall event!  The bad morning didn't last long, Friday was actually a very very good day.

Breakfast
     1/2 Omellette (Cheese, mushroom, spinach)
     2 pancakes w/ syrup & butter

Snack
     Chile Limon Chips
     Pepsi

Lunch
     the other 1/2 of the omelette
     1 slice of wheat toast

Snack
     3 Mozarella Sticks

Dinner
     3 Tacos
      chips & salsa

Not the greatest eating day, but I slowly have to cut of my bad eating.  I did not work out at all on Friday!  I should have taken advantage of being at home and at least walked in my neighborhood.  But I didn't.  I am happy and surprised to report, that I am sore from Thursday evenings spin class!  Ron did push us Thursday and I feel it!  I heart spinning!

Dresses, Dresses, Dresses

I have my eye on 2 dresses that I would love to buy! 

 











To motivate myself through the holidays I am going to treat myself to 1 of these dresses if I lose 20 pounds during the month of November.  The hard part is picking which dress to get, I love htem both!

Wiping the Slate Clean....

Hello all real and imaginary blog readers!
Today October 27th I wipe the slate clean!  I got an email from a friend asking to help them out of a rut.  In my attempt to help them out of there rut, it made me do some self examination.  I was in a rut myself!  She helped me out of my rut!  I don't know if I did much for her, but I think in our own ways, we help each other!

So today I am back on my regimen.  I have been going "rogue" for the last 8 days.  My last workout workout Wednesday October 20th and I have been eating like it's 1999!  I don't know what that means, but if people can party like it's 1999, I can eat like it's 1999!  Today we are being to turn..and return to doing what I know I should be doing.  Today was not a perfect eating day, but an improvement from where I was yesterday and over the last 7 days.  So here we go:

Breakfast
    Scrambled eggs w/ 1/4 cup spinach
     Whole Wheat Rounds
     Pumpkin Latte

Snack
     Small bag of Cheetos (stress/comfort food)

Lunch
     Baked chicken
     Rice
     Red Cabbage salad
     Salad

Snack
    Another bag of Cheetos (still stress/comfort food)

Dinner
     4oz baked chicken
     1cup cooked Spinach
     1cup Zuchini

Evening Workout
     60 minutes of Spin Class
     Going to Spin Class after not working out for 8 days = REALLY BAD IDEA!
     I did enjoy this instructor though...Ron gets 2 thumbs up from me! Unfortunately he was subsititue teacher.  He said he normally teaches at the gym in Compton, so I will have to check out the class schedule over there!

Major accomplishment for the day:  NO SODA!!! 
Thanks all folks!
