Can You Spot the Difference??

27 Oct

Hello! How’s it going? How are your goals for this week coming along?

I did some stretching and foam rolling yesterday, but I have to get on it today! My quads are so tired from the RnR LA Half Marathon and the classes I’ve been taking at the gym lately. My body is not used to this whole cross training stuff.

foam rolling is good for you but hurts (800x450)

I did already hit the gym today though! Go Monican!!

I was thisclose to skipping because I wanted an upper body workout and the fitness class I hit up on Tuesdays usually is lower body. But, I made myself go and the instructor did a lot of upper body! Boom. She had us use light weights with tons of reps. I am going to feel it tomorrow.

It’s the cheesiest thing, but you never do regret a workout.

no regrets

A little view on the way home…

I ran some errands after the gym and felt my stomach rumbling (it really never stops). So, I got some fruit for the road.

Pre-gym breakfast was eggs and a tortilla with tons of ketchup and this new to me garlic salt from Trader Joe’s.

Now I’m going to dig into lunch and get some work done!

healthy salad got me like (800x450)

First, let’s play a little game… I saw this awesomely decorated house on my walk this morning. Then, I spotted something different about it. Can you see what changed in the 2 seconds from the first picture to the second? I thought it was funny.

Question: How are your goals coming along for the week? What was your workout today?

      I prepped low carb meals like a boss on Sunday and then destroyed a bunch of candy on Tuesday and Wednesday. I’m disappointed but I’m going to try and get back on track today. I spy a black kitty!

      I’ve just finished a full marathon yesterday and I feel my quads are “not mine”. Lay both my leg straight on the bed for 4 hours. I guess I need to stop my work out for at least 2 days.

      Ha – I love the spot the difference. I had 666 unread emails in my inbox yesterday. Spoooooky.

      I do Foodie Penpals, and yesterday got my October package, and it has garlic salt in! How else will you use it? Just like regular salt? At least it’ll see off the vampires….

      I luv that garlic salt! I always buy a couple at a time. The “Everyday seasoning” is pretty good, too 🙂

      I did a core workout at the gym, followed by a Pilates / Yoga fusion class. Good workout and it let my muscles recover. Black cat is in one pic, not the second pic. That is cool.
