Day Ten

Ok...so this morning was just like every other morning. I woke up, and eased into my day. I usually get going around 7-7:30, but it just depends on the day. Anyway, last night my husband deep fried a whole chicken in our deep fryer (the one we use at thanksgiving that has to be outside). Can you say YUM?!?! I've been eating off that since last night. It was breakfast & lunch too.

So I did something I haven't done in a couple of weeks. Actually I did two things. The first one was to drink some coffee. I put whipping cream in there with some stevia. Can I get a second YUM?!?!?

The second thing I did was work out. Since I am not on a timeline, I just waited until I was done digesting breakfast & then hit the weights. I literally did the most basic of basic workouts any human being can do. I did two sets of the following:

Chest Press (free weights)
DB Row
Leg Extenstion
Hamstring Curl
Tricep push down
Bicep Curl
Front & lateral shoulder raises

I am lucky that I have all this equipment just sitting around since I used to be a personal trainer. I think I'll try my hand at a boot camp style workout tomorrow & kickboxing (we have a standing punching bag). For now, I plan on doing total body workouts 3 times a week. That may change as I get stronger, but for now I am trying to build a foundation.

The reason I drank coffee this morning was in hopes of getting my bm's moving. That seems to be the only drawback from this diet. Luckily, my friend Cheryl, is a low carb expert! She is my go to Atkins guru & she is giving me pointers & tips on things. The other great perk (pun intended) is that the coffee gave me tons of energy! I've never felt the effects like this before. Well, that's it for today. Stay Strong!
