Great Energy Today!

So today  I woke up without an alarm, only about 10 minutes after I usually wake up. I didn't do it on purpose but forgot that yesterday my alarm wasn't working right and forgot to check the settings for this morning. Don't worry. I fixed it this morning so I will definitely be up tomorrow. At any rate, I got to the gym with plenty of time for stepmill lovin'...that's right...45 minutes of just me and the stepmill. We really have improved our relationship. I felt so good that I did 20 minutes on Level 6 and then 25 minutes on Level 7. Piece o' CAKE!! LOL!

Yesterday and today I had lots of energy. It's been great. No idea why. Maybe I'm a little revved up since I start my prep in a mere 6 days! Wow! I can't believe it's that close.

Meals today:
1) Egg whites with almond cheese and homemade salsa (Thanks Iris!) and oatmeal with MimicCreme in it! Yum!
2) Spelt flakes with protein shake "milk"
3) Salad with chicken and grapefruit and yuzu vinegar dressing - okay, this is REALLY tasty with the juiciness of the grapefruit (ruby red of course)
4) Same as meal 2
5) Asian pork tenderloin with mashed cauliflower
6) Chicken with veggies
7) Protein tea

Today's workout - all 3 sets and reps varied:
Seated cable row superset with hip lifts for abs
Hammer strength lat pulldown
Rope pulldown on cable
Dumbbell bicep curl
Bicep curl with EZ bar
Crunch on decline bench
Ab crunch on the floor

Have a fantastic night! Let's see if my energy lasts to tomorrow! According to this quote I must be meeting a LOT of resistance! LOL!
