blah blah blah blah blah

So I have been working out for a about 2 months strong and I am very proud of myself for sticking to my goal. Like I listed in previous blogs I have cheated twice in the past 2 months. Last night was one of those days. So I have cut back my fried food completely. It was not intentional however. I have just been eating a lot of grilled and/or baked foods, eating more fruits and vegetables, basically making healthier choices when it comes to food to make a long story short. So yesterday, I did good all day, I ate breakfast, lunch, small snacks, and fruits. Then I went to a program, and once again I picked all the healthy items to eat, the fruits and the veggies and water, instead of the punch. Then after the evening program. I went to a fast food restaurant. There is nothing wrong with going to a fast food restaurant, its just what you get on the menu. I go out to restaurants a lot,and get salmon, but I have not eaten at a fast food restaurant in about 4 weeks. Any who back to my story, so I go to restaurant and I order 3 chicken fingers, fries, and bread, with the secret sauce. What the H was I thinking doing that. So I ate it. EPIC EPIC EPIC EPIC FAIL. My stomached hurt so bad.. I think it was because my body was not use to eating all that fried food. Not only did I eat the chicken tenders, but I eat the fries too, that 2 greasy food that I consumed and I didn't even know how many calories that was.. So needless to say, I wont be doing that anymore. No more fried anything!!!!
       This too is off subject, some people really ticked me off and said that I lied about what I eat, and don't eat. How can you tell me what I eat and don't eat. Are you with me 24/7? Do you workout with me? If your answer is no, I need for you to worry about what your doing and not what I'm doing. Instead of criticizing people you need to work on yourself first. I am honest about everything. If I say I going to workout, I actually go and workout. If I say I cheated OR messed up I will say I cheated and messed up. How is that lying? Last time I checked that was being pretty truthful. How rude are you? VERY... I think some people are just h8rs.

Morning Workout Update: I need some motivation!

 OK, So I have been blogging about wanting to add a morning workout in a addition to my evening workout for about a week now. Key word, blogging/ wanting to add... I am still doing my evening workouts faithfully. I am still working out 3-4 days out of the week., for 1-2 hours at a time. My goal was to add running for longer periods at a time(which I have been doing,), and morning workouts to the mix. I have been running longer, but this morning workout is getting me and I don't know why. Here's the thing. I wake up early everyday, between 6:30-7:15am sometimes earlier. I don't have to be at work until 9am so I have amble enough time to pop a DVD in the TV and workout for 30mins -1 hour, take a shower, then head to work. Its not that I am tired or anything. Because I get up, look around, change the channel on the TV, and since I have been working with my training, I added breakfast to my diet. So i make breakfast.( Don't get too excited on the breakfast. Its instant stuff like oatmeal,and cereal and fruit, something you can whip up in less than 5 mins.) So I don't know what I need to do to get myself motivated to workout in the morning, I am all the way motivated in the afternoon, and I get upset, if I think I wont make it to gym. I don't know what I need to do get that humph in the morning. Any suggestions????

In search for a studio apartment

So I have been on a massive search for a studio apartment. Now you may ask, why do you want a studio? Aren't they small? But here is the thing, its just me!!! I don't need a lot of space. Why should I pay $200-$300 more a month for a wall when I can create my own wall. Come on, now that to me is silly. So I think I found the perfect studio apartment and In am excited. Its in a perfect location, the price is something that I can afford and most importantly it has lots of closet space, and its in a safe area. I am a young lady and I can't live anywhere. My next step is furniture. I found some really cute furniture. I plan on purchasing it next month. All I need is a couch,bed, pictures for the wall, and a rug.I also need some decorations for the bathroom. I already have a dining room set and a dresser/chest.I basically need a lot of stuff. lol.But when I get my income taxes back (that's if I get anything back.lol) I want to purchase my big items with that money and buy everything else piece by piece. My goal is to have everything for my apartment by July. So that's 4 months. Not too bad. Here are some pictures of some the items that I want.

has lots of storage space, which is very key when you live in a studio

I like earth-tone furniture, I can buy anything to go with it. SN. I am only purchasing the couch.

I like this rug, I think it would go so well with this furniture

YOU CAN DO IT

Soooooo I graduated from my 6 weeks program with my trainer, however he is booked up until April 5th!!! So a small group of his former students have decided to get together and workout. I think that was a gr8 idea. We worked out together yesterday and it was a huge success. It was only 4 of us, but it always feel good to workout in groups and have someone cheering you on. I see these next 3 weeks will be a challenge  to myself to see if I can still maintain my healthy lifestyle. In the words of a very funny guy from from the Waterboy once said..." YOU CAN DO IT!!" lol. Also I am increasing my speed on the treadmill and I am very proud of myself. I ran 10 mins straight without stopping. My goal is to run a mile in 10 mins or less. I am getting closer and closer.... GO ME!!
