Oh dear! This is how I can express my day today, “Oh dear”. The day was going smoothly, life was good, I finished my work for the day, BUT then an attack came. A candy attack! I was getting really stressed about one of my MBA classes today so I went straight to the candy! I had about 10 pieces of candy and I felt horrible. I was sad that i fell to the temptation and I felt bad because I had a tummy ache. When I cheat I CHEAT! Then when I got to school I had 2 cups of rice 2 pieces of bread and a carrot cake. I didnt stop, I just kept going. My mind stopped and I just continued to eat. What’s a girl to do?! BUT I know tomorrow is a new day and I get to start over again. That is what’s great about life, every day is a new day and you just have to pick yourself back up. You never want to ruin all that you work hard for, for one bad day. It is easier said then done but you have to continuously talk to yourself and self motivate. How do you make up for a bad day?
445am…and were off!
My daily routine starts with me usually waking up at 5am, 445am on a good day. For some reason I was so psyched to work out today. Todays plan was 30 min cardio(stairmaster) and biceps, triceps, quads, hamstrings, and glutes. Ahhhhh… life is good after the gym and I have some pics of my routine and some update pics (there not that gr8, I hate taking pics of myself at the gym…lol)
I chose to do these exercises as supersets, doing two exercises per set, I luv it!!!!
NOW for the update pics:
Me scared that some random person would
walk in and see me taking pics…LOL!
The Triceps are getting there…
My guns are coming in nicely
The area of hell…I just have to remember patience is virtue
I didnt get to take a good pic of my leg, but I will get a pic up soon.
Mind you… My goal is not to get BUFF….no way! I just want to be a lean, mean, ass kicking machine 
Song of the day: N.E.R.D in Hot n fun
The abum just came out on i tunes and it is wicked!!!! <3 it!
The girls are Awesome in this video!

Ohhh…The Pain
So on Sunday I decided to do a routine from Jessica Putnam (above) that I saw in Fitness RX magazine. What a routine! I woke up on Monday in SOOO much pain that I could not even go to the gym in the morning, my body really needed the rest. BUT the routine was AMAZING!!! I loved it and I plan to do it once a week.
Below is Jessica Putnam’s Boot Camp routine:
1st Giant Set
Burpees-15 reps
Pushups-10 reps
Mountain Climbers- 50 total reps
2nd Giant set
Squat dumbell front raises-15 reps
Pop Squats up on step- 15 reps
Dips on Bench- 15-20 reps
3rd Giant Set
Bench Jumps- 30 seconds
Bent over rows- 15 reps
Walking lunges- 10 walking forward 10 walking backward
4th Giant Set
Toe Taps on bench- 50 total reps
21s with a Barbell or Dumbbells
Jump Squats-10-15 reps
And thats the routine a High intensity, non stop, fat burning, strength training workout!
Setting Goals
I realized the importance of goals. Sometimes we have goals in mind but we never write them down and hold ourselves accountable for them. With that being said here are my goals for the month of November. Meals and Move blogger, Janetha, gave me this idea and I thought it was great way of holding myself accountable to everyone out there.
So here it goes
-
Go to the gym 5-6x a week, I would put just 6 but some weeks are more hectic then others
-
Do weight exercises 3x a week
-
Do bootcamp routine once a week
-
take multi-vitamins daily
-
Have one cheat day for the week
-
Drink 8 c of water
-
Cook at least 3x a week, that will be a tough one with school
-
Track food
-
Stay on top of the house
-
Spend more time with mom, it’s been very busy with school
At the end of November we will come back to this list and see if I was actually able to stay committed to my list. Wish me luck!
