Rough night

Thanks to the hubby's psychotic love of UFC I didnt get a real nights sleep but did prep some food for the week. First I made Asparagus with pancetta fried in butter,mmm!
Then I made Carrot and Broccili mash as well.
Packed my lunch of organic chicken sausage, my asparagus and mash.. as well as one organic egg with asparagus for breakfast.. washed down with acv in hot water!
pics later!
Sadly didn't get up for crossfit but tonight when I get home I will be going down to the the gym to jump rope, do some assisted pull-ups and lateral box jumps! So not totally horrible. Ok time to finish my cider and get my behind to work before it gets any stinking hotter!

Its time to get real

Ok so I've finished elements, took a break and went on a vacation were I indulged in lobster rolls and coleslaw and PIE!!
But now well its time to try out the Primal Diet, I love reading son of grok and well if it worked for him I'm sure it will be good for me too.
Monday 7am its crossfit time, I plan on going m,w,f and taking spin t,th at 6am. I've got my kineseo tape and lots of tiger balm, I'm ready to get pained!!
Wish me luck!!

Also going to make an order from La Cense Beef, nothing like grassfed! And going to investigate the bison place by my bff dana in flemington! Now if I could just kick my painful diet soda habit argh...

Oh yeah I've got one bad bad sunburn hurts to even look at me...

Friday Friday Thank God!

So starting my morning using my old blender that is barely alive to make a green monster! But the vitamix arrives today I'm oh so thrilled!

And Rocking my awesome gold loafers, I really need to stop wearing them so much.. But there comfy and go with everything..
Mylo of course is being cute and beggin me to stay home!

Ugh my back

So my back is totally messed up and Mike aka master of fixing the broken mesterpiece came over to do some brutal shiatsu on me.. Pics below and funny!

Argh technology

So yesterday I went on a massive spending spree, loving the new camera and cannot wait for the new blender!
But this morning I realized why you need to double check anything IT does, well I had them make an email alias list, well I was happy they did it till I ran into one of my interns who was like do we have our mtg today? To which I was like well yeah I sent out an invite to you all..
So I went to my desk only to find out that sure he made an alias but alas he assigned zero email address's to it. Ugh god how I hate people sometimes, but it was partially my own fault for not doubling checking it.

Well at least I got fresh bagels and nice cream cheese to feed our hard working hopefully hungry interns!

Way to many purchases today

Well after seeing a metal piece fall off my blender I decided to just buy the Vitamix I wanted, pricey but at least it will make my smoothies well and won't die so easily!

And bought a cute stroller of my cousins registry for the baby shower!

Now off to B&H for a camera, I feel like a spendaholic today....

Morning Everyone, had a bit of a snafu today, a blade in my blender broke after making a green monster ugh! But now I have a reason to buy a vitamix! Shh don't tell my husband!
I am once again heading to work in totaly jcrew head to toe again, I swear I have issues!

But I am off to B&H today to buy a new camera a little samsung I've had my eye on for and hopefully getting out of work early to go to the Chiro since my back is still hurting blah!

Casual Monday by kryssyb featuring Banana Republic

Crossfit - Am I nuts to sign up for this?

Today is the hubby's bday, so we went out with his parents to have carbohydrate loaded dinner at Leo's. It's bad for you, but god there penne vodka is insanely good.

So today I took the plunge and signed up for the Elements Class at Crossfit Nyc, starting July 14th, I will be learning a ton of moves so I can then start doing the WOD (workout of the day) classes. A lot of the moves aren't new to me, with my old trainer I've done tons of body wieght exercises like plyo box jumps etc, body wieght squats, step ups and evil evil lunges! Considering my lower back went out yesterday I'm realizing that I need to really get my muscles bulked up again!
If you want to see what kind of crazy torture (that I do love, esp when someone yells at me) check this video out.

Went food shopping and got all my food for the week, though I do need to hit the amish market to get some broccilli and a few other veggies for a pasta salad I'm going to make.

I'm really not happy the weekend is over, but at least I get to see True Blood tonight, yea!

Old Pictures

Yesterday I found some old pics from when I was active and in shape. It made me cringe to think I've let myself fall so far. But battling an autoimmune disease sure hasn't helped.
My grandmother recently passed away, she was a fantastic woman I wish I had gotten to spend more time with. But the fact that she never took care of herself and watching her body slowly break down over the years, has made me realize I need to pull it together.
