Monday! No work today, this is the best day ever!

Woke up, had some cherries for breakfast and then went for a little run…

Breakfast

 

I started a new challenge today…

 run

 

1 Mile Run…actually a little longer than that, but who’s keeping track?

Workout

 

Did a pretty intense but short weights and ABS workout.

Oh and on my morning run I ran into this little(actually big) guy, he is a lab/pit?? brindle mix and he is so sweet, he must be pretty young still, cause his teeth are so clean and pretty and his temperament is pretty immature. 

Cale

 

I posted him and Craigslist and haven’t heard anything all day, I can’t believe someone would lose this little guy!

Had to bring the cat inside, cause they did not get along at all, but it was nice to have a little cuddle time with this guy, he is strictly and outdoor cat so I enjoyed out time together!

Lunch

Awe…a wonderful Sunday and the best part about it? I don’t have to go to work tomorrow! Woo Hoo!

Had a cup of coffee for breakfast and then spent the day with this little guy…

Nolan

My precious nephew, this little man is so full of life. He is so happy and loving, he melts my heart! And his mommy is such a wonderful first time mommy, I love seeing her love and care for him!

Then came home had one if these…

Beer

(Or maybe 2…or maybe even 3 ;))

Then did some serious cooking!

I was in the mood to make some salsa, I found this copy-cat recipe for El Pollo Loco’s  Avocado Salsa…it turned out so good, email me for the organic recipe (Which is just as good, if not better!)

Guac Before Guac Blend Guac Salsa After

I didn’t eat any of this today, but tasted it and oh my it was good!

I also made a copy-cat recipe of the Chili’s Salsa…Organic Style…

Ahhhh…today…not my day…what is it about Wednesdays?? I was soooo busy at work I didn’t even have time to post my post from yesterday and I did not even get to drink my usual gallons of water and tea…and it was just a bad day. I came home upset and tired, I threw down my bags and fell on the couch. I will spare you the work drama, but let’s just say I am not liking it and praying for change…soon…

Breakfast

What breakfast? I did not consume anything today not until 2pm that is.

Lunch

Lunch

I know, I know…I had a diet coke…this is WAY not like me… aspartame is one of the worst possible thing you can consume, can you say formaldehyde?? I needed a caffeine kick so I caved. Some strawberries, cucumber, chips and the other half of my sandwich from last night.

Workout

What workout…I AM NOT WORKING OUT TODAY. My brain cannot handle it.

Dinner

Veggie Spanish Rice, Organic Pinto and Black Beans and a few slices of Avocado. Yum.

Tea Time. It’s that time of year when cold tea is starting to taste better than the hot. 😦

Goodnight.

I am so aggravated…I hate getting dressed in the morning, I am not losing weight like I used to…I feel stressed and just not happy…I don’t get it? I need to change my attitude…I am eating well, working out and not drinking(Well, Monday and today!) and still my attitude is terrible…what is happening?

Frustrated.

Day 9: May 16th 2013

Well…this was a tough day for me. BAD day at worked filled with unnecessary drama and it just plain put me in a bad mood! I got home from work and the last thing I wanted to do was work out…so guess what I did? I didn’t, I just plain didn’t. I decided the best way to justify these actions was to switch my Sunday ‘Rest’ day with today. So I decided to make Day 9 (A Thursday) my rest day! So this Sunday I will be double working my butt off to make up for it!

This was my day in a nutshell…

tea

Had my usual hot water with lemon, a cup of coffee and tea. Woo Hoo!

lunch

This was lunch(don’t be jealous!), along with some leftover pasta salad.

workout

Although I did get dressed to workout, as you know I quickly recanted that thought!

Dinner: Mexican Chili, Guacamole and Chips…Yum

I’m tired.

MONDAY…LAMEDAY

I have never been one for Mondays and today was just as I expected it to be…just Monday! I should consider changing my attitude and outlook on Mondays, if I did I bet they would actually be tolerable.

Had kinda a weird ‘eating’ day today, no breakfast at all just drank my usual hot lemon water and I did have a cup of coffee…had a piece of quiche for lunch and then this for dinner…

Dinner

Veggie quiche(made by my beautiful mama), pasta salad, made with all organic ingredients and homemade french fries…I made these for my husband to go along with his burgers, but I admit I had a few. Oh and yes I drank a beer, actually two…it’s my weakness.

Workout…

Workout

JM-Wk2-Check (P.S. I hate week 2, it’s so boring)

(That fan is my new workout friend, it is miserable working out is 105 degree weather)

That’s all I did today, between the extremely hot weather(In early May!) my toothache and ear infection I took it easy. Tomorrow will be better…everyone cheats on Mondays right?

Oh and I almost forgot to mention I received an amazing gift from my husbands family who live back east…they are amazing people and always spoil me with Nike gear. I could not be more grateful…a girl can always use a new pair of shoes…especially running shoes!

Nike

I am blessed.

Awww…Saturday! Woke up early and went for a hike with my baby love!

Run

Mt. Rubidoux (Riverside, CA)

Hike1 Hike2 Hike3

Had a nice run/hike…kinda had to cut it short cause my pup was tired…It must have been 90 degrees outside…I carried him much of the last mile.

I didn’t eat anything today…I tend to do that on Saturdays(Not a good idea) I am just not hungry on Saturday…I actually didn’t even notice that I didn’t eat. Oops!

Workout was good…

Hike-Check

JM-Wk 1-Check (I am so glad it’s over…when it gets to that 6th day of the same workout…it’s pretty boring!)

Side Bends-Check

Plank-Check

Ball Squeeze-Check

Don’t fret I am having dinner tonight…it’s my meat day and my husband is making my favorite…tacos with all organic ingredients(if only we could have gotten the meat from our own cow…maybe one day…)

Dinner

Oh…and I am SUPER cheating today…my biggest struggle has been giving up beer(Heineken) and I have done a good job thus far, until today…I was tempted today at Trader Joe’s and I caved…so YES I am having a beer or two tonight, deal with it!

Beer

Looking forward to tomorrow’s REST day!
