Holy, how is it almost 11pm already? It’s been go go go since I last posted!
As the afternoon ran away from me I snacked on a few banana chips and a small handful of chocolate covered edamame…
I did not get outside for a walk, but I did get to wear flip flops on my way to the gym! This made me a little happy, I’ll admit! It also made me feel like paying for a pedicure because I’ve yet to give myself one. I think it’s pink toenail season FINALLY!
Today’s workout was a combo of Day One & Two of Intro to Iron, plus some extra ab work.
- Treadmill warm up – 10 minute run
- Overhead press
- Lunge & Lift
- Tricep Dips
- Toe Touch crunches
- Planks
- Lateral Raises
- Hamstring Curls on the ball
- Leg Lifts with the ball
- Crunches with feet on the ball
Whew! Probably should have done a little more cardio, but I had to meet a friend tonight and had been there longer than planned already.
I did re-learn that my treadmill running speed is 4.8 mph. Yesterday I was trying to run at 5 mph and it was a hot mess. Random intervals and I never got past 5 minutes of running. Today I dropped my speed and ran almost effortlessly for 10 minutes straight…and could have gone longer had I needed to.
Soooo anyway… dinner was a bit of a non-event.
I actually reached into the freezer and grabbed this random Sheppard’s Pie that I had bought for $1 on sale like month’s ago.
I didn’t read the ingredients but I did check to make sure I wasn’t about to ingest something with a bazillion calories. Only 200. :)
Surprisingly, it was actually pretty tasty. I guess some fake smashed taters on top of mystery meat can be good sometimes. haha.
Served with steamed broccoli for some semblance of nutrition.
After dinner I raced to get ready and then ran off for coffee with my friend Joanne. Off to Starbucks. Shocking I know. LOL.
She treated me a to a grande non-fat half-sweet Vanilla Rooibos Tea Latte…which I did not take a picture of…ooooops.
Now I’m snug as a bug with a heat pack, water, a dish of Easter jelly beans (!) and Parenthood. Yay for the return of Gilmore Mom. ha!

I can't wait to get a pedicure. My toes are in desperate need of one. I was going to try to get one this week but I don't know if that will happen. We'll see.
I'm loving parenthood too. But who could not love a show with Lauren
Graham.
I'm way too embarassed with my toes to go get a pedicure. My half marathon training in the fall KILLED my toes and nothing I have done over the winter has made them any prettier :(
Also, I was sucked into twitter tonight and now I'm finally getting around to watching parenthood. Yay Lauren Graham! YAY!
Funny... I've just started thinking about getting a pink pedicure, too! Spring must be here.
Kudos on keeping up with those gym workouts.
