Breakfast:     Scrambled eggs, scrambled with Spinach & mushrooms

Mid Am Snack:  Gala Apple

Lunch:  Kale Salad

Mid Afternoon Snack:   Isopure Vanilla Protein Shake

Dinner:  I think it was a southwest Salad (it was provided @ the Arthritis Foundation)  & a can of sprite

Workout:  30 minute with Jen

And then lastly I finished the day, with much need sleep!  :0)

That's all for now, catch ya later!

One of my Better Days...workouts, small victories, Defect

Well gang..this is one of the better days I have had in a few weeks.  I kinda have alot I want to blog about not sure where to start!

SMALL VICTORIES
I went for a pedicure today.  Today, I was able to fit in the seat with both arms down!  Normally I have to keep on of hte chair arms down cause my hips didn't fit in the chair!

DEFECT
Well I made it to spin class today. First class in about 2 weeks.  As I was on the bike spinning my little heart out.  The pedal broke!  Yes the Pedal broke!  I heard a crack and next thing I knew hte pedal was on the floor!  At first I thought I broke it cause I was too fat, but after talking to my sister, I decided maybe its a defect on the bike!  Either way..it was not a pleasant feeling!
