Ran 3 miles. Walked 2. Jumped rope for 25 minutes.
Ate a tablespoon of cinnamon… for fun, at the boys house. Haha. Saw it on Tosh.O and I said, “Why the hell not?”
It burned. Like, oh my lord, did it burn. Haha, but it was good fun.
No practice until Saturday or maybe Friday. :( Gonna be jumping rope at my house. But it’s not the same. Haha.
I’m… Like… BEAT.
Sooooo, night loves.

Arize - Ingredient And Advantages Of The Product:
A costumer must usually possess the mentality of evaluating the product first before quickly purchasing it. The very best method to do this is to study online and understand all of the information concerning the product. Essentially, the comprehensive explanation introduced through the manufacturer regarding their product is not sufficient so it’s also perfect to gain information by going to other retailing websites also as weblog websites. With this, you’ll be able to augment your information concerning the product you’d prefer to purchase and this could assist you to create a wise purchasing choice. So when you have any interest…
Let me just remark upon the oddity that is arm and hand sweat.
Like, what the fuck.
I was doing Insanity as usual when I noticed that my arms were glistening. I swiped a shaking hand across my right arm and noticed I’d been sweating on my hands and arms.
Uh, gross.
Not only was my face covered in the stuff (that’s what she said, by the way), but my hands and arms, too? I think this is super-scientific proof that Insanity works. One day I will meet Shaun effing T and tell him that all his workouts made my hands and arms sweat and that this had never happened before and dear God, does he know how sexy he is?
Anywho, I’ve discovered this new joke of a tv show called Jerseylicious. If you don’t know about it, all you need to know is that it features a bunch of Jersey hairstylists/makeup artists who dress like carbon copies of Snooki and specialize in the art of loud and trashy confrontation; they are also masters of the ‘smokey eye,’ which is really just a fancy way of saying ‘overzealous application of black eye shadow .’ It’s a good time, mostly just because these women (sometimes men) dress so… er, exotically.
I mean that in the best way, I really do.

Difference between wanting and needing:
I’m dirsty:
I NEED water.
I WANT diet coke.
I feel a little bit weak:
I NEED sugar as in fruits.
I WANT sugar as in chocolate.
I’m hungry:
I NEED food.
I WANT junk food.
I’m not that hungry:
I NEED to wait for dinner.
I WANT to go for a snak like some chips or something.
I’m bored:
I NEED to work out, take a walk, etc.
I WANT to stay in my couch and watch TV.
Always remember:
“NOT EVERYTHING YOU WANT IS WHAT YOU NEED AND NOT EVERYTHING YOU NEED IS WHAT YOU WANT”
So as you can see from my last post (the picture of the grocery cart), I’m still making an effort to eat healthy. Luckily for me, I have an amazing grandmother who’s house I stay at all the time, and she’s been so great at helping me eat healthy. She took me grocery shopping with her and let me get whatever I wanted to continue on this healthy journey. Of course the whole cart wasn’t mine, but having so many options is making it a bit easier mentally.
I’ll be honest, I DID have a plate of rice for lunch this afternoon, but I was starving and there was nothing to eat. But after we went grocery shopping I made a salad and grilled chicken for dinner. Not the most satisfying dinner, but still good. Even though all this healthy eating is making me hungry like all the time, I think with time my body will adjust to the new portions and content that I’m eating and I won’t feel so hungry.
All in all I did pretty well today! I avoided buying sodas, ice cream, chocolate, candy, white bread, pasta, cookies (except for 1 box which I’ll have every once in a while as like a reward or something), high-sugar cereal, and basically anything else I would’ve jumped at before.
I know chicken is good to eat, but what else is healthy for big meals? I don’t like fish (I know, that really limits things), and if anyone could give me more food ideas as opposed to saying like protein, calcium, etc. (cause I don’t know what has that), I’d really appreciate it! Thoughts?
My skin is always something I’ve been complimented on. (And I want to be a Dermatologist). SO, here’s what I use. It’s all God’s tools, so I take no credit. I get an aloe vera leaf from a plant and trim the top off. Then I extract the clear goo on the inside and place it into a bowl. Then I refridgerate it and apply it to my skin every night before bed. I also use apricot oil two to three times a week on my skin. Even my face.

Sometimes you need a little motivation for exercise. Maybe you workout with someone else or in a group (I highly suggest either one), or maybe some good music gets you motivated. Whatever it is find what works for you, and use it often! I am motivated by the feeling I get immediately following a workout… when you are tired, breathing heavy and you have all those endorphins rushing through your body! Great feeling.
I would like to give a little advice to those who are beginning to workout. Don’t look at exercise like some daunting task, or something that can’t be fun. You should over time come to enjoy working out…it might take time, practice and more practice but you will get into a routine and start to enjoy it. Be patient, and sometimes find an activity that you enjoy. Swimming, sand volleyball, skiing, hiking…anything that involves physical activity that you can enjoy is a great way to incorporate a that word “fit” into your lifestyle.

If only Nestle’s Fitness and Fruit and Cereal isn’t that expensive, I’d definitely be buying 2 big boxes in one payday. One carton of that cereal is only good for 2 days consumption. I love it because it speeds up my metabolism and I’m beyond frustrated these past few days because wala na ko mayo ka moshi. Pffft!

I didn’t weigh in because I don’t have a scale this weekend. I didn’t keep track of my calories, but I ate healthy. I didn’t work out, but I’m happy with the fact that I’ve ate healthy for a whole three days..that usually never happens. I’m going to work out in a bit. I know there’s very few people actually reading this, but everyone reading this helps me stay motivated. And that’s the only reason I decided to put this on tumblr. Thank you (:
breakfast recipe!
1 whole wheat wrap
peanut buter
1 apple (any flavor)
cinnamon
Greek Yogurt (I didn’t have Greek Yogurt this time but usually I do)
Spread peanut butter (usually about 1 tbsp.) on wrap. Slice the apple into a bout 8 slices. If it’s not a small apple, I usually only use 5 or 6 slices. Cover with a little bit of cinnamon. Microwave for 45 seconds. Serve with yogurt.
11. You’ll Handle Stress Better Break a sweat in the weight room and you’ll stay cool under pressure. Texas A&M University scientists determined that the fittest people exhibited lower levels of stress hormones than those who were the least fit. And in another study, researchers at the Medical College of Georgia found that the blood pressure levels of people with the most muscle returned to normal the fastest after a stressful situation, compared to those who had the least muscle.
3. Your Clothes Will Fit Better If you don’t lift weights, you can say goodbye to your biceps. Research shows that between the ages of 30 and 50, you’re likely to lose 10 percent of the total muscle on your body. And that number will double by the time you’re 60.
Worse yet, it’s likely that lost muscle is replaced by fat over time, according to a study in theAmerican Journal of Clinical Nutrition. The scientists found that even people who maintained their body weight for up to 38 years lost three pounds of muscle and added three pounds of fat every decade. Not only does that make you look flabby, it increases your waist size. That’s because one pound of fat takes up 18 percent more space on your body than one pound of muscle. Thankfully, regular resistance training can prevent this fate. Just remember this muscle motto: Use it, so you don’t lose it. After all, nothing good comes of that.
According to a Duke University study, if you have more than 200 orgasms a year (that’s 2 to 3 times a week), you can reduce your physiological age by six years. Among the benefits of having sex often, Dr. Oz says, is that it can prove that your body is functioning as it is supposed to. “But in addition, having sex with someone that you care for deeply is one of the ways we achieve that Zen experience that we all crave as human beings,” Dr. Oz says. “It’s really a spiritual event for folks when they’re with someone they love and they can consummate it with sexual activity …seems to offer some survival benefit.”
