Bring on the salads!


This is a salad with chicken, craisens, and cheese I made drizzled with ranch dressing.

I love making salads look "presentable". I am a mad woman over how the food is presented, really. It's like decorating a room to me, only with food its cheaper. Ta-dah!

Thank you all for the NO sugar support, I am still working on it!

Today is my real off day, and I am only doing my OMY and stretch. Rest, recover and GROW muscles, grow.

Smoothie
1 scoop vanilla ice cream whey
1/2 banana
1 c silk

Thank goodness just 21 Days left of round 2 P90X classic!

Where does the time go? Well when it comes to Tony Horton not moving very fast because he likes to torcher you! In a good way of course but still. I have decided to continue my love/hate him even if he has my same initials. TH

Yesterday I cranked it up and got out the big weights and was not sure how I would feel today......but........ROCKSTAR is the feeling I got this morning as I crawled out of bed ON the first alarm ringy-dingy! GO T. bonus workout points.

Not my favorite, but the much needed, and very good Yoga X was on the plan for the day...... so I got out my "Yoga Paws" and got on my YOGA-TUDE!
