Cross Training Level 1 Week 7

Another week done! My first week back on track with my workouts and nutrition went well. I was able to lose 3.4 pounds this week and look forward to moving in the right direction again. I made sure to stay as close to my macros/calories as I could and I made sure to get in my gallon of water a day.

It seems like getting back on track after some time away is the WORST! But it always feels AMAZING when you finally CRUSH IT!

How was your week?

July 31st, 2020

Our air fryer came in today so I did go about 100 calories over today testing some air fried French fries. However, I kept it under control and ate on plan the rest of the day.

I got my cross training lower body workout done.

It’s the weekend now so I’ll be focusing on getting my steps in.

Hey Hey It’s Fri-yay!

It’s Friday! I love Friday’s, usually I get to make them short work days since the market closes at 4pm. This week not so much since it’s the end of the month and I have to get everyone’s clients entered to count for the month!

Tomorrow will be all garden, I have to mix in the compost I added last week and break up some clumps and then plant some more things in the back side of one of my beds.

I also got to order some bamboo posts this week which I will use for supporting my pole beans as they grow, which is one of the things I am planting tomorrow.

Since the bathroom remodel is finished, getting back in to my normal routine, cleaning a little each day, working out, just normal life, has gotten hard to get back on track. Slowly adding back in the eating healthy and working out so I can get on top of that. Next week will be steps and getting back into the cleaning. Although, I probably need to vacuum cause there is dog hair EVERYWHERE!

How was your week? Are you excited it’s Friday?

Eh, Slacking Off Again

I knew I would be really spotty with my posting. It’s not a new problem with me and blogging. I have other things to maintain and try to keep all of my categories on their specific blogs. It’s a thing.

We are still in the middle of the pandemic, which I don’t think is technically a pandemic anymore. More information is found out every day, more crazies make their videos and posts every day, and move people don’t fact check and share blindly.

Life has gone on. We finished our bathroom remodels, we have continued with the garden growing, and we have been fighting pests there.

Jonathan is still working, which we are thankful for during this time. Since I work from home on the regular, none of this has affected whether or not I can go to work.

At the end of the day, I think everyone is ready for life to go back to normal. We all want life to go back to how it was pre-pandemic. Parents and children are unsure how school will go on this year. It’s time for life to start getting normal, whatever we might have considered our normal before.

We all push through and move on but it’s weird to remember a time before having to wear a mask to get groceries. It’s weird to remember a time when you didn’t have one or two things that were just sold out for no reason at the grocery store. It’s weird to remember not having to stay home day after day after day just in case.

But how was your time?

Hit all my macro goals for the day. I’m still repeating the same meals over and over and over again but it is super easy to duplicate day after day.

I also got my workout done. Today was a cross training core day and I’ll be feeling that tomorrow!
