Today was Day 8 of Insanity & Transition! I woke up at 6am and THOUGHT about putting off my workout until tonight...but decided to suck it up and do it! Today's workout was "Cardio Power Resistance" and it is quickly becoming one of my favorite workouts! I almost started cracking up doing it though, because my closed captioning said THIS on the screen:
Hehe! The girl "squeaked"- most DEFINITELY not Shaun T! Anyhow, it was a tough one, but I pushed through it. Afterwards, I decided to weigh-in for my "Week 2 in Transition" and I was holding my breath...but was pretty satisfied to see that I am still under my goal weight! I had seen the scale go up a bit this week, but I knew it was due to water retention and muscle formation (hopefully!) and not to worry! I really love having this peace of mind as far as my body goes. I know that if I treat it well, with food as fuel and exercise daily, it will be kind to me in return.
After Insanity, I had my first taste of FRUIT in a long time! Since today marks the beginning of Week 2 of Transition, I am now able to have two pieces of medium-sized fresh fruit, along with the addition of extra veggies! I had a green apple w/my apple cinnamon oatmeal this morning. Nomnomnom!
Later, Ryan and I went to Benihana's for my belated birthday meal! I ordered the Jumbo Shrimp and it came with SO MUCH SHRIMP so I had lots of leftovers (speaking of which...I think they're still in the car...oops.) Anyways, Ryan surprised me with a cute ceramic cat cup that I've said I wanted! Who cares if they're supposed to be for kids 12 and under...I'm a kabuki kid at heart!

Anyways, today has been a good day! As you can see, I drink copious amounts of tea. For those of you that know me, I have become obsessed w/green tea. It's so delicious AND good for you! See?
