Dual workout and barkbox

Woke up at 3:30 this morning!!!!! Though i laid in bed and played on my phone and cuddled with the dog until 4. Hit the gym and did 20 min the water.

image

With workout 1 done i changed for workout 2

image

Spin class.
I knew it was going to be a hard day when i rolled out of bed this morning  and was sore all over from training and running yesterday.
Spinning was good

image

image

My waterbottle was at that point where it was starting to get gross so i broke down and out it in the dish washer. Bought gatorade at the gym

image

My new favorite flavor, glacial frost.

image

The delicious cheese i think i mentioned yesterday.
Today was ice cream sundae day at work

image

I tried to be good and not go overboard. The first half was delicous then i started feeling horrible but eat these kinds of sweets so infrequently that i forced myself to finish it and felt bloated and gross for like 2 hours. Old habits die hard.

image

My new vitamins arrived. I track my food in myfitnesspal and one of the things it has shown me is that i never hit my daily calcium goal so i will start taking these a few days a week to combat that a bit.

image

Barkbox came today!!!!! I love opening these boxes!!!

It is always interesting to see what Artemis is going to like toy wise and what she is going to ignore. Anything Artemis doesn’t want Jasper, my roommates dog, will eventually adopt as his own.

I am feeling a little lonely tonight. I miss having a boyfriend, i miss having my girls around for dinner dates and coffee dates. I am doing a lot better with my  breakup and getting back out there but some nights i still get really sad and lonely. Mostly when i disappointed by the state of men and dating today and get depressed that I’ll never find someone.
This too shall pass.

Well thats it on my end.

How was your day?

Hump day!

Got up and hit the gym this morning for strength training. Yes i slept good last night. Thank goodness!!!
No auntie tina it’s not the coffee lol. I’m drinking less than i ever have.

The gym was hard but awesome. I’ve lost another lbs!! Woohoo. I can feel the muscles developing and i am loving my body and starting to feel soooo good!.

image

My gym bag and blender bottle are pretty much a constant in my car these days hahaha.

image

I went grocery shopping when i was hungry and got Gardettos or whatever that snack is so i limited my portions.

image

Lunch was tomato, basil, and mozzarella on this delicious bread from the bakery at Fred Meyers. I also got some aged smoked cheddar YUM!!!!

There was still sun when i got home so Artemis and i went for a little walk run

image

Had the second half of my leftover salmon for dinner

image

And now its off to bed so i can hit the  gym even earlier than normal because my trainer instructed me to swim AND spin before work.

Night Night!!

I had a suprise on my desk this morning!!!! Groot!!!! This little guy is so cute and i always played with my co-workers so she bought me one!!!!!! Probably because i threatened to steal hers…………….

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

image

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.

Happy Monday!!!!!

Monday- Run 1 minute, walk 2 minutes x 10

Tuesday- weight training session with trainer

Wednesday- swim session with trainer

Thursday- spin class

Friday- OFF

Saturday- 5k and dog park

Sunday- yoga and intervals: run 1 min walk 2 min x 10

Sadly i am going to have to suspend my training (with my trainer) for a month or two once this set of sessions is over because it has put a serious dent in my credit card.  I love it and i love her but i just can’t afford it right now.
