Ouchie Dammit

James and I started a Boot Camp program last night. It's a combination of everything (cardio, abs, upper body, and lower body) crammed into 1 30-minute sweat fest. Of course I offer my thanks to the wonderful people at Hulu plus for putting some awesome stuff under their fitness category.

I have muscles sore that I didn't think were possible to be sore. I can feel the burn in my thighs, back and shoulders. Thighs and shoulders, not so bad... Back?! Holy moly it hurts like a MFer. I digress, it's not pain.. It's soreness. Delicious, excruciating, groaning in pain soreness. Of course the masochist in me is ready to go with round 2 tonight! No pain, no gain.

We also had a night cap with our favorite candlelight yoga class. I'm sad to sat that it will not be available on Netflix after August 1 :( Sad panda.

On the menu for dinner tonight is baked chicken nuggets and some kind of veggies. During our next grocery trip I'm going to invest in some of the quinoa stuff I've heard so much about. I've also read tips on how to have your fresh veggies last for a month (yay freeer bags!). I'm excited to finally get back off my arse and get things done.

Grocery Shopping

Tonight was the night to grocery shop... ICK. I'm not a fan of grocery shopping. I'm especially not a fan of leaving my new car in a parking lot full of buggies and random driving strangers, but anyways.. I learned a very valuable lesson tonight, HEB in Taylor has crap for produce. The tomatoes are gross (fruit flies! EW!) and everything is over priced... There is also a certain time of the month that a woman shouldn't grocery shop... I'll let you get what time of the month that is! Oh well, lesson learned.

I found this awesome recipe at this blog here. It's primarily Weight Watchers based, but the food looks amazing. For dinner tomorrow night I'm making the chicken taquitos that are from her April 11th post. It looks really easy and super tasty. I'll be sure to update tomorrow with how they turned out..

Zumba earlier today and it looks like I'm about to do some Yoga.. Have a good night everyone!

There's something to be said for that catchy phrase...

What was that phrase again? Oh yeah... Just do it.. Thank you Nike.

Today was a day of complete and total ridiculousness.. Between having a kid disappear at work to STAAR tests, I was beyond ready to come home and pass out. Like hardcore ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ (with the drool and everything). Thanks to James and his awesomeness, instead of a hardcore sleep I had a tasty (not very healthy, but tasty all the same) dinner and did an hour of workouts. 26ish minutes of walking followed by 42ish minutes of candlelight yoga. It wasn't as much cardio as I should have done, but there's something to be said for increasing flexibility and improving muscle tone.

Short post tonight... Yoga got me all relaxed, now its time for a nice warm shower and ZZZZZZZZZZZZs..

G'night all!

My *ahem* portly weekend...

Oy... I can't have weekends like this too often... I was a major stress eater on Friday and we tailgated this afternoon. Unfortunately there wasn't any water or diet soda at the tailgate :-/ I haven't had a real Dr Pepper in forever! It was almost too much to finish, SO MUCH SUGAR.

Hopefully tonight I'll get some work done and be able to go out on my walk and do some yoga with my fiance.. He's so super awesome.
