Day 8- Feelling Strong:) UPDATED HAIR DONE

-



I am definitely feeling stronger today. I really tried to push myself this morning to fatigue my muscles and heres what I did:

Chest Flies: 12(10) 10(15) 8(20) 8(25lbs!!!!) -[i couldnt believe it!]
Chest Press as burnouts: 24 ssslllllloooow at 65lbs

Shoulders: 12 (6) 10(8) 10(8) 8(8) [i still take it easy on shoulders ..]
Shoulder pull ups at burnouts: 24 (10)slllllow

Tris: Laying Extensions 12(10) 10(15) 8(20) 6(20)
Tri Burnouts: Over the head Extensions 24(15)

My arms are so tired.. and really do feel like I burned them out.
Before I lifted I did some shoulder rolls and stretching to get warmed up.. I wonder it that made a difference..usually dont do that. .. afterward my lifting a did a few minutes of aerobic punching and I think that burned them out even more.. sore tomorrow? Probably :)

I go at 1130 to get my hair cut.. I am now considering one of the shorter cuts.. I just cant decided.. I am ready for different and I want something easy for the summer.. humm...

Well I will post a picture the afternoon.. I know yall are just holding your breath dying to know what I will end up with huh? (hehe)

I will go now and work on my recipes page that I promised Josha :)

happy workout!
PNP!


UPDATED!

Well.. I did it.. I decided to go very short.. I Love it.. I think it will look even better once I get to the end of my 12 weeks :)







I wanted to post the picture of the salad I made for caregroup.. Its my Mexican salad recipe but layered in a dish instead of just on a plate. I obviously added more chips.. We didnt get to go to care group cause the boys stuffed up noses.. but Nelda said lots of people liked it.




Ok.. all for now.. I am off to do some schooling :)

18 years of Choosing to Start Over

-
Welcome to were it all started, this space I created in January of 2006 to help me navigate my journey to personal health and fitness. I have come a LONG way from that first post 18 years ago and I am so grateful for all I have learned along the way. I will be coming here a lot more often over the next weeks, months and years as I have decided to begin writing, journaling and sharing here again. I hope and pray you might find inspiration here to help you along your own path to health and fitness. Please note that this 18 year journey consisted of several things I learned that did not work for me, others programs, supplements and others ideas of nutrition, health and fitness. I am leaving all these as is, so you can see my journey. I will be talking more about the different things I tried thru the years and what I learned about myself and what works for me along the way.

I ate "normal" foods like taco stew, corn bread, eggs, a few cookies (yes, cookies!). This morning I woke up and decided to have some hot decaf tea, eggs, and while my breakfast tasted yummy.. it was no where near as tasty to me as my all fruit breakfasts I have been having. About an hour later I was CRAVING fruit! I also had a slight headache. :( So I grabbed an orange. Later for lunch I had left over taco stew, come corn chips.... and again, while it tasted ok.. was nice and warm .. it left me wanting... CRAVING..  fruit. I also had.. you guessed it... a headache. Also.. last night... I woke up HUNGRY! I havent woken up hungry since giving 801010 a try. Going into this process I didnt think I would last 2 days. After making it over 3 weeks and having amazing results I have just been so shock...
