So I suck at blogging sue me! LOL!

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.
