Hump Day!!!

Yes!!! Only 2 days until the weekend!!!!

So at this point I’ve worked out 3 days this week. Thursday is always where my resolve starts to waiver. Sleeping in instead of going to spin class always sounds so good. And by Thursday fatigue is starting to set in, especially if i haven’t gotten enough sleep, which i almost never do.

Then yesterday i saw the blog of a trainer who talked about motivation. She gets up and does the same thing every morning to kick start her day. By always doing the same thing followed by some kind of exercise she has gotten herself into a routine. Now her body knows when she drinks her morning shake a workout is coming so her body automatically starts revving up for the workout.

I am trying this.
Before i go to bed i put a scoop of Bod*e in my blender ball with a little vega protien powder so all i have to do when i wake up is add almond milk and shake. Once my pre workout arrives ill add some of that.
I take a little baggie of protein powder  and recovery and put that in in my lunch bag for post workout. We will see if this helps me at all

I also already have my breakfast ready so i stop spending money by eating out.

I’ll let you know how i fair the rest of the week.
Did swim today in the AM then did a 20 min interval run workout at lunch.
Thank goodness i am starting to take recovery again!!!! Lol i am sore!

Now off to bed for me!!

Do you have a pre workout routine?
How about a post workout routine?

Weekend Wrap-up

Noooooo tomorrow is Monday!!! It’s back to work. Who came up with this 5 day work week, 2 day weekend thing? What genius decided that? They should be tarred and feathered……and stoned.

Ok rant over.

Today really wasn’t too exciting lol. After having been out a lot yesterday i stayed in and ready today…..all day….it was wonderful.

After 10 years i think i am going to have to replace my duvet couver soon……thats a duvet cover right?
Letting Artemis sleep on the bed i am sure hadn’t helped.

So i had been talking to 2 guys and have now let them both go lol. Dating today is a sad state of affairs. 1 of them hadn’t wanted me to date anyone else even though we hadn’t even been on an official date yet and the other one hadn’t read a book since high school and had never been in a Barnes and Noble………….yea no. I am a book fiend so that did it right there but there was so much more.
I am now going to take a little hiatus from dating. At least a week, probably 2 or more.

I didn’t work out this weekend because my stomach is still bugging me. I have been taking 1-2 probiotic pills a day which is sort of controlling it but i don’t feel like its ridding my body of it just yet.
Will it never end???!!!

That is it for my exciting weekend.

How was your weekend?

Shopping Saturday

Hi!!!

I slept in this morning. Took it easy on my body so it can fight off whatever is now going around.

I met a friend at the mall and we did some shopping. We both did pretty well as far as bang for our buck (suddenly wondering where that saying came from…….)

Got home and took Artemis to the dog park

image

I didn’t chase her as much as i normally do but she still got a little energy out.

Then i read for a little bit and met  a date for coffee…….oy. Tonight pretty much made me want to give up on dating. I won’t go into all the details but yea. I wonder if i will ever find someone.

I think it might be time to take a little dating break. I’ll keep you posted.

How was your Saturday?

TGIF

Yay Happy Friday!!!!!

Well there is some kind of GI thing going around so i left work at 4 and went home to relax and tale probiotics.

This means that once again i will miss my race and have to run my 5k at home again.

To help the day pass i listened to some podcasts.

I am still obsessed with the serial podcase.

I also started listening to the criminal podcasts.

Just signed up for StixFix!!

I can’t wait to get my first stixfix box!!!!

So this weekend i need to run a 5k, take Artemis to the dog park and rest read. What are your plans?

Well off to bed, i need the rest.

Wednesday Wonderings

Good Morning!!!!!!

I spent most of the weekend relaxing and feeling down about my ex who i hung out with Friday night. But i got over it. I spent the weekend on the couch relaxing and bindged on scandal, i am now halfway through season 3.

image

I opened one of my small coffee samples i bought from Hawaii to try this weekend……freaking delicious!!!!!

image

I hung some fun motivational quotes in my cubicle to keep motivation all day long

image

I will continue to add to it.

Tuesday i had a good strength workout and i am a little sore today. This morning i did my swim workout, i am sure as the day goes on i will get more sore hahaha.

Not all the way awake……have a happy hump day!!

Book Review**A Glimpse of Evil

image

Here is super fun series that is a very easy read. You don’t even have to read them in order if you don’t want to. I tend to just grab whatever one sounds like i haven’t read it. I think initially i read the 2nd or 3rd one first.

It is a cute story about a psychic who helps the policed or her friend who is a private eye solve cases. She gets herself in some dangerous situations along the way.

A great beach read or something to read between intense books.
