Almond butter and chocolate sandwich?
Sounds too good to be true! It looks like today was a great "me" day! Massage, manicure, pedicure. That's a perfect day!
Enjoy the party!

I am very happy to report that I didn’t indulge in any alcohol last night. I thought of my fellow vodka loving friend, Mermaid, down under and stayed strong 
I sipped on diet coke instead and not too much of that either. I didn’t even give the birthday cake a second look.
However, I was starving by the time I came home at 1am, so I had 10 almonds before going to bed. And despite that, this morning I woke up starving some more. Sigh!
I unfortunately spent most of today exhausted. Despite yesterday’s massage, my neck, shoulders and lower back feel godawful. I have that feeling in my head that I got hit by a truck. I’m not sure if it’s my imagination but I also felt a little feverish at times. So I decided to bail on working out today. I will
if I have a relapse or get sick again.

½ cup Kashi Go Lean cereal
½ cup vanilla soy milk mixed in with ½ cup liquid egg whites
1 tbsp milled flax seed
10:45am:
Grilled cheese sandwich
- 2 slices Ezekiel bread
- 1.5 ounces Jarlsberg Lite Swiss Cheese
I normally don’t take T-Rex over the weekend, but decided to pop one. My appetite which was raging completely at this point died for the rest of the day. T-Rex rocks!
1:30pm:
South Beach meal replacement bar – Chocolate Crisp
16 oz cold hazelnut flavored coffee with 1/3 cup vanilla soy milk & 2 splendas.
4:30pm:
Tofu chocolate blueberry pudding (I highly recommend this! )
- 20 oz lite tofu
- 2 tbsp Walden Farms chocolate dip
- ½ cup blueberries
My new smoothie maker totally sucks
(or I don’t know how to use it) so it’s going back to the store. I just used my regular blender instead to make the pudding.
7pm:
8 oz cooked shrimp with shell
salad greens, cucumbers, baby tomatoes, diced onions and peppers, hot banana peppers with lemon juice & black/cayenne pepper

Once again, I have to wait till the work week to catch up with everyone. I am not liking sitting up in front of the laptop right now. But I am feeling slightly better after two hot showers, some stretching and icy hot rubbed all over my upper back and neck. I wish Trelin lived closer to me so she could help me out
Grr, is it Monday tomorrow already?

getnfit06 said:HAPPY MONDAY!
Thanks, GnF! I’m feeling a little better today. I woke up with soreness and aches but forced myself to go to the gym anyway. As part of my warm-up stretch, I did some side lat raises with 2lb dbs and I actually felt pretty sore just raising my arms.
I really don’t know why I get hit with this weak and achy feeling that makes me feel like I got hit by a truck. I’m trying to get an appointment with my chiro today, but not sure if I’ll have any luck. FlyBrownChick said:Almond butter and chocolate sandwich?

Yes, the almond butter and chocolate sandwich was delish
I’m going to save it as my weekend treat. The party was only so-so. Hate to say it, but being in a crowded bar when everyone else is drinking and you’re not, is not so much fun. mermaid said:How do you go with the circuits/plyo? Sounds exhausting.
que_66 said:Hiya Diva-Roo!
Your workouts are far more interesting than mine, they actually look kinda fun. The people at my gym are helpful but only to a point.
Hey Merm & Que….thanks for stopping in! I get my ideas for workouts from magazines and watching everyone else train. It’s weird in that I can do stairs or plyo circuits, but ask me to run a mile, and I can’t. I was actually thinking now that the weather is nicer, I’m going to have to build up some jogging endurance. I think my body is getting used to all the cardio that I like doing.
As for my meals, I get most of my ideas from everyone else’s log here. Even for the Flat Out wraps, they were part of the tortilla thread on here a while ago. So all my “best meals” are really thanks to y’all
HAPPY MONDAY EVERYONE!!

Not good, but tolerable....I feel like a hypochondriac but I really don't feel like I fully recovered from my bad kidney infection. My tests all came back clean as of 10 days ago but I still have bad days like yesterday where I'm so fatigued and achy and worse yet, have a real peeing problem. I woke up 4 times last night to go to the bathroom and I only slept for 6 hrs. My doc says he can put me on meds for an overactive bladder. I'm debating it and still reading up on the side effects, but my big fear is then I'll start retaining water and get all bloated. For now, I'm giving it a little more time before reacting.
Hope you're week is off to a good start, FBC! Just a little over a week till the new job starts, right? Yay!
^^ Not weird at all honey... My old Training Partner could NOT understand why I never use to sweat or fall over heaving after some training sessions.. then came the plyos ... OMGoodness, 60 seconds of jump lunges, 1st time EVER I thought my legs were going to fall off ... more common than you think RoonRoonytunes said:
I agree with your approach on NOT jumping on the med wagon ... I still have HUGE issues with docs always wanted to prescribe something for something ...
Sorry for the rant... reminds me of the commerical for Visine ... "there's a Visine for that ..." i.e. There's an RXN for than ...

Thanks, Bunns & Que! 
Mon, May 8th
I got to see my chiro after work and feel loads better. She’s one of those holistic wellness folks and she thinks my problem now is more intestinal than kidney-related. She used her magic for “unblocking” and while I can’t say I believe in all this necessarily, my back and neck feel eons better after her adjustments. I could barely raise and hold my arms this morning but got a pretty good upper workout this evening and felt strong.
