THOUGHTS OF A FITNESS FREAK

Im into the Bok Choy this week.  Its chinese cabbage and has calcium in it. I dont add salt, just saute with some spray pam like stuff.  It reduces down and is damnnnnnnn good.  For some flavor I am mixing it with my ground turkey.  Im also on a boiled egg kick this week. I do about 4-6 a day, depending on my mood. AND yes, I eat the yolk.  I would add different foods in, but frankly I have been too busy lately, so I just cooked a bunch of both foods.  I will eat it until its gone, by then I will be tired of it.

Sat night after the band interview we went to Chili’s.  Let me just say they probably have the deadliest menu on the planet. The lesser of the evils was Tilapia with broccoli and rice.  I think they were trying to disguise it as brown rice, but it wasnt at all. Trust me, I have eaten tons of it………think it was white rice with something in it to make it appear brown.,  They have so much crap in that place, its terrible. I suppose I am lucky that I never liked any food “drowned” in anything…sauces, brown goop, gravy……..makes me cringe.  I used gto love alfredo though, cannot lie.  Part of the process of going clean involves getting used to much less sodium and better food textures.  STICK WITH IT!  The salty will seem saltier, the mush will seem mushier and the gravy covered stuff will make you want to gag…………..not to mention the grease…….the smell.  For the ladies with kids, it’ll be like your first few months of pregnancy where everything made you want to hurl.  For me, the double cheeseburgers are something I HAVE to have after a couple cocktails……dont ask me why.  I make an exception there. 

I trained back heavy last night.  My bent over smith rows were 105 lbs for a solid 8 reps, press downs in front on cables 110.  I also did bi’s, but I threw in preaches and those are sometimes hard on the inner elbow tendons, so I only did 40 lbs.  I did some c ardio yesterday though and some today on my lunch hour.  Ok FINE, I only made it 10 minutes today so I raqn into the back aqnd did some incline situps and some assisted pull ups to finish.  Its soooooooo boring and I feel like its torture to do cardio.  I wish I liked it more.  I really do, but I feel like I could be doing something else the whole time I am doing it. 

Im 2 and 1/2 weeks our from the state championships.  I am not terribly confidant this year.  I will post a photo above of the one who beat me last year and show you why.  Hopefully with bikini added this year, my muscle will be appreciated?  Crap, it is what it is. 

I didnt get my new suit yet….bummer.  Im grawing on my nails just waiting.  I hope its perfect.  I like my other one still, so I may just go back and forth. The right suit “completes” your look I think.  One that is cut wrong can make your butt look BAD, or if its not cut high enough, your waist looks thicker….legs shorter etc. 

ok, no training tonight.  I have to watch “make me a supermodel” because I am totally addicted.

Later!
