Lost 3 More Inches!!!

I was already feeling a bit smaller, tighter and more toned two days ago. So I measured this morning and guess what?! I lost 3 more inches!!!




I'm not counting that inch I gained in my bust because, well I know I worked the heck out of my lats this week and it could also be due to my cycle. Can't believe that I lost more on my waist! I don't need to lose any more there. SO stoked about my hips and thighs going down a bit more!


Exercise

Body Brushing this morning, but forgot my face! Will do that later tonight.


Eats

Brekkie

Egg on Ezekiel toast with Spinach and Seriously Sharp Cheddar.








Also drank 1/2 of a TAZO Organic Iced Green Tea.




Lunch

OMG the most amazing lunch ever!!! I decided to go to Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza for their Eggplant Marino (named after frequent customer Dan Marino's favorite choice of ultra-thin slices of eggplant dusted with Parmesan cheese).

This photo does not do this dish ANY justice!!



I ate 1/2 of it, gave a few bites away and had a small piece of the bread. SO worth the money! The eggplant is cut super thin and doesn't have any breading. Just the most delicious sauce with fresh Parmesan cheese. YUM! It melts in your mouth.

I also ordered this side salad, but the lettuce was so wilted that I could barely eat any of it. They topped the old lettuce with purple onion, chickpeas, olives and tomato. I tossed it and will probably call them about it too.



And finished off the rest of that bottle of TAZO tea.

Eats

Brekkie

Listening to My Body

I slept really horribly and woke up super sore all over. PBS helped a bit, but I think my body needs a full workout or at least Basic Workout Plus. It's making my overall attitude negative too.

Listening to my body is a difficult task. When it hurts I need to give it what it needs to get well again... T-Tapp, 8 hours sleep, salt soaks, vitamins, water, sauna, etc. All my healthy habits I'm trying to form really do make a difference when actually applied.

Last night I got to bed before midnight, not by 10pm as I wanted to. Woke up just after 7am since I just had to go to the chiropractor. My appointment went well. He's still working on my final report.


Exercise

Primary Back Stretch + body/face brushing.


Eats

Brekkie

Strawberry Green Monster.



Ingredients:
  • 1 cup frozen organic strawberries
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 cup Original Almond Breeze
  • 1 Tbsp organic flax
  • 1 Tbsp organic almond butter
The strawberries aren't sweet enough for my taste. Smoothie was pretty bland.


Also had a Starbucks Grande Nonfat Vanilla Rooibos Tea Latte.




Lunch

Leftover Salmon and Salad.




Dinner

Rotisserie Chicken Ezekiel Quesadilla.

PHOTO COMING SOON! I left my camera battery at the office again, so I took my dinner photos with Marcel's fancy camera. Need to pull them off. Sorry!

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 frozen banana
  • 1/2 cup frozen organic blueberries
  • 1 cup organic fresh spinach
  • 1 cup Original Almond Breeze
  • 1 serving of Chobani 0% Strawberry Greek Yogurt (I really need some plain yogurt!)
  • 1 Tbsp organic flax
  • 1/4 tsp bee pollen

Lunch

I picked up Marcel before lunch so he could get his car from the mechanic. We ended up going to Chick-fil-A and then to the park to eat.

I got the Spicy Chicken Sandwich.

We're going to see the new Alice in Wonderland tonight at Channelside for free thanks to our apartment community. I have to miss out on a few hours of work this week (no 40 hours for me!) to make it home in time to exercise and then get to the theater for a good seat. Gotta do what I gotta do, right?

Au revoir!

Early to Rise

I ended up going to bed after 11pm last night. Despite my 20 minute salt soak and relaxation meditation I could not fall asleep. Marcel was still out at band practice, so maybe that's why. Sometimes it's hard to sleep when I know he's still not home yet. BUT I woke up right at 6am this morning. I thought to myself, "Why is my alarm going off this early? What do I have to do? ...oh yeah, early work day!"

Tonight we *might* go see that new movie Kick-Ass for free before it's released in the theaters, but we might not because Marcel needs to spend time with his sister and family while they're here this week. The movie starts at 7:30pm and I'm working until 5pm then planned on going to the sauna!


Exercise

Primary Back Stretch + body brushing.
