Or maybe I’m wrong and its not the new diet phase but I’ve gotten, not 1, not 5, but 15 different emails about being a vegetarian and I’ve never signed up for any vegetarian websites, but it seems all the fitness guru’s are jumping on board.

Whatever floats their boat but what floats my boat is an occasional ribeye. Or a nice chicken breast. Or some yummy salmon. And lets not forget my favorite during the winter holidays:turkey. Yes I love me some turkey during Thanksgiving and Christmas.

I think I’ll just keep working with want works best for my body. Once upon a time I jumped on all diet crazes. I even ingested Slim Fast and swore to myself it tasted yummy and not powdered chalk. No sir it was delicious.

What works best for me is protein, and greens with some healthy fats, if some people find a veggie only diet works best for them, then I say go for it. But don’t just hop on board because its the new "in" thing. Listen to your body and work with how your body responds to the way you are eating.

We’re all unique individuals. I know once upon a time in another life I probably chased a dinosaur down and killed it for my meal, and maybe once upon a time your ancestor only liked the taste of veggies. Like I said we’re all unique. What works for me will not work for you and vice versa.

I’ve been bad with blogging, its summer and I like to be outside with the kiddo when I can and not tied to my computer, he is at vacation Bible school right now. Last week I only did cardio because the bursitis in my shoulder was majorly bad, this week back to weights after having the flu this past weekend.

Tuesday was legs/abs and some HITT

Today was back/bis and some HITT and a little steady state cardio. I’m trying to be able to jog for 2miles with no breaks, I have a mental block that swears "you must rest and walk " when I get to a mile, I"ve gotten up to 1.5 miles jogging.

I’m not a runner though I’d like to think if my life depended on it I’d run like a cheetah. I watched a movie called Prey and a woman was running from a lion, she got in her car and one second later the lion hit the door, hopefully I’d be able to do that, LOL. Of course I’d like to think I would never be stuck out on a guided tour in Africa and have to watch my dumbass guide get eaten by man eating lions and realize the damn keys were with him.
