Dang, this always happens to me. Life just gets way to busy to blog. And i cheated.
A LOT. Heres the crack down:
Day 4 Thursday July 28:
Lunch: beef and rice
Activity: Vball for 2 hours
I felt kind of tired after vball. I think it's because I was the dedicated setter for most of the games. Dang, I do not like setting all the time. I'm more comfortable being a power or offside even though I'm short, I can get the ball over haha
Day 5 Friday July 29
Lunch: The BF surprised me and we went out to Nandos for lunch. Mmmmmm... so gooood.
Activity: Didn't work out, but walked 14,000+ steps @ kdays. I bruised me ankle @ Vball so walking was not comfortable, but it was definitely a lot of walking. Got a foot massage and that felt sooooooooo good. Poor lady who had to touch my tom-smelling feet hahaha.
I also ate: perogies, deli manju, fried onion blossom, chicken waffle on a stick....
Day 6 Saturday July 30
Lunch: I don't remember what I ate for lunch.. a bag of cheesies?
Activity: zero. Went to Cau's house warming, ate bbq, mashed potatoes, corn, Roasted pork, played beer pong, banh hoi, etc. Definitely a cheat day, fo sheeezie.

10 day mini challenge - Day 2
Tuesday July 25, 2016 12:49pm
Tried to wake up at 5am today, I could not get my zombie like body out of bed... I'm going to try "The Rock Alarm" (http://projectrockofficial.com) and see if that works.
Lunch: Tuna, salad, wonton soup
Going to insanity class (finally!) with Ho Train tonight. Haven't done it in foreverrrrrrr. Here's not to puking!
Update:
Went to insanity and almost died. Cardio is not my friend, no matter how much I try to be your friend. 50 minutes non stop of jumping jacks, push ups, etc. Ho Train made it look so easy . Damn that cross fit training!
Also went for oysters and then we ended up going for tacos after. ughhhh.. double time work out tomorrow.

Update: instead of going to the gym, opted to walk with Tree after closing up shop for an hour to catch Pokemon. Trying to get her active too and the only way is to persuade her with Pokemon haha

It's happening
Last week I did a solid 5 days of workouts over the lunch hour.
Monday: Kettlebell
Tuesday: Tabata
Wednesday: Zumba
Thursday: Bootcamp
Friday: Barre
The beginning of this week was brutal with kettlebell yesterday. A co-worker and I were in the same class and we exchanged glances during the workout expressing the pain. We both admitted to feeling nauseous afterwards (2 hours after class was over for me). Though it was an ass-kicking sweat, we did enjoy the instructor. Also note to self: eat breakfast every morning before a workout.
Today was a circuit Tabata class. I think I did pretty well. I sort of felt like the instructor saw me doing most of the sets with lots of energy and proper form and maybe thought it was too easy for me. She made a comment: "I noticed you picked the highest step [for the step-ups]." And I joked "and I'm the shortest one." And at the end when we were all told to go back to the one station we hated the most, I went to mountain climbers and she said "did you want sliders?" to which I said "no thanks" as I did my mountain climbers manually. It was just odd that she picked me out a couple times. So I conclude that I did really well and that's the story and I'm sticking to it...!
Tomorrow will be an unintentional rest day for me as I have to run errands during the lunch hour. I might fit in a workout during the evening. I should try, at least.
Overall, I'm feeling myself get stronger and leaner. It's a great feeling and it's happening. Good day!

Bouncing off the walls!
Today, I did Tabata. The instructor wasn't as "inspiring" as last week's, but I managed to get a good sweat in. It was a good challenge.
Directly after Tabata, I had a very bouncy attitude and got a meeting set-up (last-minute room change) with gusto and it was hilarious. Working out this hard and consistently is having a positive impact on me.
And, I was walking by my co-worker in the office this afternoon and she said I'm looking skinnier (seeing me from behind). I was like "no...." And she said "yes, really!" So that's a good thing!
And...! A co-worker across the hall invited me to join her Rugged Maniacs team in July. I'm looking forward to a new 5km challenge with 25 obstacles and team work!
I'm ready for more exercise - bring it on!

Monday: Vinyasa Flow Yoga
Tuesday: Tabata
Wednesday: Break (errands over the lunch hour)
Thursday: Bootcamp
Friday: Barre
Saturday: Ice Walking in Grotto Canyon (Canmore)
Sunday: Break
That was a busy week! I managed to eat alright for most of the week including Ratatouille, Lemon Sole/Salmon en Papillote and almond tart on Friday. Then enjoyed Cherry Cola Chicken and Duck Poutine on Saturday and hot pot in the evening. So good but so many calories!
This week already started with dripping sweat during kettlebell. It was a great workout. Looking forward to the rest of the week!
