Weekend Struggles...

Happy Friday!! I took the day off from work today...I just needed a day to get things done. I haven't been sick (thankfully) all year so why not a day off just for errands and fun? The hubs works from home so we took the day to finish up some yard work. Well...not quite finished, but we put a nice dent in it! :)

I took the opportunity today to test my fat burner pill and the multivitamin (all known to upset my stomach in the past) and I have to say...so far so good! Whew! Now, to just figure out the whey protein...maybe taking it in small increments will build up my stomach for it. I will try the Omega pill tomorrow. (Grossss fish oil in my belly...) I will try it and hope for the best!!

Tonight we are meeting friends for dinner and I struggle with the weekends and the eating, drinking and sometimes more drinking! Living in Las Vegas, there is always something to do and we are so blessed with great friends that want to spend time, have fun and drink with us. However, I know what alcohol can do to the metabolism so this will be a tough one for me. Also, eating at a restaurant will be difficult I am sure. I have looked up the menu online and was able to find a fish selection that I will ask to be only seasoned with lemon and then maybe a side salad...we will see how this goes.

I had a great morning! I was super excited to find a coffee that I like from home! I made it with a small packet of Truvia and barely a Tbsp. of the All natural creamer...only 35 calories baby! Woo Woo!!! SUCCESS WAS FOUND TODAYYYY!!! There was this great article I read today from someone who was looking to transform her body last year and she did the same plan that I am doing. She said her key to success was to BE PATIENT. Do not expect to see results until after the 4th week. This is what I will focus on being I want instant results and we all know this is impossible. Body transformation takes time. Here's to hoping 12 weeks is enough time! wink wink

Today's Menu:

Breakfast:
4 Eggs whites scrambled w/tad but of onion and spinach/splash of Tapatio hot sauce
1 slice Ezekiel Bread (toasted) w/a tad of almond butter and sugar free jelly for taste only
Coffee
Fat Burner

Snack:
Pumpkin Protein Bars
Iced Green Tea

Lunch:
1 corn tortilla with 6 oz. shredded chicken
Lettuce/Tbsp of pico/a few pieces of avocado
Fat Burner/Multivitamin

Snack:
Turkey Balls! Woot! Woot!

**We are back from our dinner with friends. I did pretty well...I think. A little disappointed though because it was tough ordering the food the way I wanted it done. I ordered the Tilapia/grilled and I asked for them to just season with lemon. The sides were steamed broccoli and green beans. What arrived was a plate of what looked like was drowned in oil of some sort. Needless to say I did not finish it all and actually came home hungry. I am not sure I will be able to the restaurant thing.

THE WORKOUT PLAN:

The first week the plan is to work out 4 days with weights and 3 days off. However, because of my dousing of oil tonight I will be going to a BodyPump class in the morning. It will be a great way to start my Saturday!
