And I really do. I've had other blogs in the past, and I'd be lucky to blog once a month. I know, pathetic. I'd never make money as a blogger at that rate lol!
Anyway. I've discovered something. I'm back counting calories again. I need to cause the scale and measurements are stuck. So time to do a little figuring.
Its harder to get a higher calorie count when I really focus on getting lots of fruit and veggies in. Did you know a cup of spinach only has like 10 calories? And a cup of spinach is actually a lot! I mean it. I make smoothies almost every morning with one to two servings of veggies and one to two servings of fruit, a little almond milk and a little protein powder and all that fruit and veggies just don't add up to a lot of calories. Same with kale. And broccoli . Yes, fruit adds more calories than most veggies, but dang, they are so good. And fewer calories in a nice banana, or apple than a Snickers bar.
So, I'm counting calories, trying to eat healthier, and get my protein in, and hit my workouts. I've got like 45 days til the big competition. HOLY SHIT!
I got a 25lbs kettlebell, and I've been trying to do swings a couple times an evening. I'm actually thinking of starting a couple days a week, getting up early, and going for a run. No, aliens have not taken over my body. I actually said, get up early. For those who don't know me, I'm about as much a morning person as Hitler was a Jewish person fan. I'm a natural born night owl. Stay up til 3am, no problem. Get up before 8am, WTF?
Sat I'm planning a trip to the outlet mall in Williamsburg. Is it weird that my main stores I want to hit is the Under Armor, Reebok, and Nike stores? Well, that and Coach lol! I'm gonna get some new stuff to workout in!
Then as I come home, a swing through Costco, and get some more fruit and veggies along with eggs.
I think making sure I'm eating healthier is making me feel better, and my skin looks better. Every week I try to make a small change that I can maintain, and it just keeps building and building.
