So here’s what I’m thinking. I’m a girl of routine, a create of habit. In my OCD an ideal world I could post an update everyday at the same time, following some sort of pattern. But let’s be real, that’s not going to happen. There are going to be days where I slack, days where my posts are phenomenal and days where you just get to learn a little bit about yours truly. In a nutshell I like to eat, I like to laugh, I love taking pictures, I tend to bitch (sorry friends and family), and I like to work out. So why shouldn’t my blog reflect that?! The following are going to be my ‘dailys’ – something you can hopefully rely on during the week. As for the weekends, well that’s fair game!

So there it is, the line up of all line ups. Watch out blogging world.. I’m onto you! Since I just realized that I missed Monday (way to go me) I’m going to start with Tone it Tuesday!
I hit the gym this morning to complete day 17 of Jamie Eason’s Body Building 12 Week Program. I decided to try this workout program a few weeks back after wanting to change up my normal routine at the gym (shocking!). Verdict so far… LOVE. And if I can have her banging body by the end, count me in!

Please refrain from making fun of me for my weights, I’m only on week three!! Anyways, this morning’s workout was great. I incorporated a few new moves since week 2 and I’m already feeling stronger.

[...] Today I made a weak attempt at getting back into cardio. I started my gym sesh with a mile on the treadmill. A mile.And it just about killed me. To some of you, a mile may seem difficult or challenging, and for the first time in a few years (more on that next week), I realized what it’s like to be at square one. I mentioned before that I was really worn out from my previous workout routine, and I wanted to try something new. Enter: the 12 week body building program. [...]
