3 WEEKS OUT!!!!! So glad it's Saturday!!!



Yep, just 3 small weeks. I'm almost there! After the week I had, I can say that it won't be soon enough. Wow! This week the cardio kicked my little (or maybe not so little) behind. I have never had a problem with doing any kind of cardio - kind of the Energizer bunny - but this week...BIG PROBLEM!!! Let's see. Monday went off without a hitch then Tuesday AM was all right and then it started going downhill - Tuesday night was hard. Wednesday morning was even worse. Wednesday night was so-so. Thursday AM - could someone please shoot me? Thursday night was still hard. Friday morning was a just as hard. Friday night was slightly better. And here we are this morning - back to normal really! WOOHOO!!!!! Thank goodness for that!!!!

My meals have been right on through it all though. I don't know what my issue was. I guess my body was trying to grasp what the heck I'm doing to it. Yeah, I would be wondering too!!! LOL!!! I had a bad GI problem Thursday night so didn't sleep well and tummy bugging me all day long...UGH! I'll give you yesterday's meals since I know what those were and haven't fully decided for today yet. Be forewarned. There was a lot of kabocha going on yesterday.
Meal 1) Egg whites, side of rhubarb oatmeal
2) Zucchini loaf
snack of kabocha
3) Tilapia with brown and wild rice mixed, side of kimchee
snack of kabocha
4) Chicken w/ sesame oil and cucumber salad (still working on this recipe but hope to post it this weekend)
snack of kabocha
5) Tilapia
snack of kabocha and 4 saltines - my stomach was still unsettled :-(
6) Decaf coffee protein shake with kabocha
7) Egg whites with tomatoes and Garlic Gold Parmesan

I think I have a kabocha disorder!!

So today I slept in a little bit, took progress pics and headed to the gym a little late. I was smart though and took my zucchini loaf with me so I could eat that as soon as I left the gym. And I did. Now I'm home and getting ready to do some cleaning before heading back to the gym for round 2. I've made it a plan to take a rest and some well -deserved time off tonight so I have a lot to get done before that. Off I go!!!

Have a great, great, super fantastic weekend and I'll be back tomorrow or Monday!!!

I hate when my body wants to take a break. Doesn't it know it needs to lean out? You're almost there!!

3 weeks out!
OMG. I want to be 3 weeks out too :)

I don't know if you talked about it... but I guess your suit is ready and your hooker-shoes too? Better start walking in them my dear, even just to do the laundry ;)

... well. I'd rather see you wear them inside! If you know what I mean!

Love you! XXX

Claudine, oh yes I have the hooker heels. I've been walking in those things forever. I'm a "natural" in hooker heels!!! LOL!! The suit? It's up on Gina's site. Check it out. I LOVE it! So beautiful!
