I woke up around 8:00 today and hung out with Doc and Cullen, made the bed, picked up here and there and headed downstairs for some breakfast.
I could tell that I wasn't going to be able to do a whole lot at the gym because my shoulders were so tight today. I thought that if I continuously stretched them throughout the morning that they'd get to feeling better...
I sat around, did some stretching and recipe hunting and by the time I knew it, it was lunch time.
Dallas called and said precious Cody had invited us to lunch at the country club. Goodnight it sounded good, but I just couldn't do it. I have been trying so hard to eat right and stay on this healthy eating plan that I had to resist the urge to go eat that delicious, yummy food.
Instead, I stayed home and made me a whole wheat tuna wrap. It was really good... and now, hours later, I don't mind that I missed that lunch. I feel good and know I saved myself about 1,000 calories, carbohydrates and fat grams. Lucky boys, they can workout for a week and see fat shrinkage and muscle bulk. Us girls take a little more time, but I think we appreciate the work a little more. :)

| Step two- tuna fish! |

| Step three- Roll it up and enjoy!! |
I headed off to the gym and met up with Dallas where I saw Cody and finally met Kirk. It's fun getting to know people around the gym that are a good support system and who are so willing to help out anytime you need it.
I started off with my CF warm-up.
3 sets of:
5 pull ups
10 tripcep dips
10 air squats
10 back extensions
10 sit ups
I headed back into the weight room to get started on my work out, but I realized after giving the kettlebell a swing, that I wasn't going to be able to do what I had initially planned for the day.
My workout was going to be
20 minutes AMRAP:
5 pike pushups
7 squat thrusts
10 kettlebells swings
Those were all things that would involve using my shoulders and my body was telling me that wasn't a good idea at that point. I figure I'd give it a rest for the day and start over again tomorrow. My body will get use to CF again soon, I'm sure. That's what I get for taking a month off!!! UGH!
I wasn't very good at getting my 5 meals in today. I was kind of icky to my stomach today. Not sick or anything, just not really feeling like eating.
Here's what I did consume:
1/3 cup of oatmeal, tsp brown sugar, tsp raisins
Tuna fish wrap (tuna, teaspoon miracle whip, teaspoon mustard, salt and pepper) 1/8 cup of fat free cheddar cheese, jalapenos and a whole wheat tortilla.
I cheated and had two hersheys candy cane kisses.
Mexican chicken soup (my version).
Glass of peach green tea, 2 tsp. sugar (little extra today...it was good too!) lol
WATER WATER WATER!
Mexican Chicken Soup
(and no picture, dang it! I ate it all before I remembered)
In a pot mix together:
3 cans reduced sodium fat free chicken broth
Can of stewed tomatoes (no salt added)
Can of diced tomatoes
Can of hominy
Can of corn
Whole chopped onion
4 garlic cloves chopped
2 chopped stalks of celery
2 chopped carrots
2 chopped jalapenos (gutted before you chop them)
Cooked shredded chicken (cooked with pepper, garlic salt, chili powder)
Add in seasonings as you see fit. I used a little salt and some pepper and chili powder.
Bring it to a boil, cover, reduce heat and let it simmer for 25 minutes.
We topped ours off with some fat free cheddar cheese and a small dollop of sour cream.
It was super yummy!!
Now I'm off to cuddle with my Love and watch some moving picture box. Nighty night, everyone!
Be Blessed!!!!
