I got my 40's back! I'm looking forward to getting my oatmeal back, go figure =)




I’m actually looking forward to getting back to strict clean eating tomorrow. Having breakfast as a cheat meal made for a sluggish start at the gym. It’s just not the right kind of fuel! Putting in cinnamon rolls instead of complex carb oatmeal and protein is like putting diesel in a gas engine. There are no more cinnamon rolls in the house though. I ate 4 by the time the day was done, C ate 1, and the rest got pawned off. When I need to look up nutrition stats on anything I use calorieking.com. I looked up all the ingredients in the rolls and tallied them up to 5,981 calls in the batch of a dozen. Umm yeah, lol, 498 cals a roll. I really like to be extreme with my cheat meals don’t I? I weighed in at 138.3 lbs this am, I’ll laugh / not be surprised if I’m up a little tomorrow morning, but for the moment I’m 12.1 lbs below my start weight.

One thing I am learning about my workouts is that I need to start them with my favorite exercise. You know that squats get me riled up so they are the starter for leg days. Well today, doing back, I was sluggish and just not into it, until I hit dumbbell bent over single rows, which I quite enjoy. Then being a dork I wound up doing 7 sets because I was trying to get a short clip on my phone to show those of you who aren’t familiar what they are, and my last 3 sets were at 40 lbs. Yay! Got my 40’s back! =)
