Hello everyone
Yesterday was an unscheduled rest day
. We spent a good portion of the afternoon shopping at Costco (signed up for a membership again). We are going through so much meat & eggs, so we decided buying it in bulk would save us some $$ in the long run. After dinner, we went on a lovely walk to our new 7-11. So get this, I was waiting in line to pay for our Popsicles, when I get taunted by butter tarts, sitting amongst a midst of other delicious baked goods
. I have not had a butter tart in a looonnnggg time
. I decided to it was time to treat myself
. Oh heck ya! It was SO worth it
.
Today's w/o will be BB Cardio + Beast Abs (40min). I might actually do a Yoga Relax premix too...I'm unbelievably sore everywhere!

I thought 7000-8000 steps was pretty good, actually! Really proud of you for trying to hit 10,000! That's why I love Leslie w/o's
. A 5 mile walk is equal to 10,000 steps. I know that if I have not been particular active throughout the day (cold & snowy out
) I can do a 2-4 mile walk and hit my quota.
I'm sorry to hear about all the stuff going on at work
. That guy seems like a total douchebag
. Any way he could get redirected to another district?
Regarding the pull-ups (overhand grip) those will isolate more of the back. Chin-ups will work biceps as well (underhand grip). Sagi actually says that with pull/chin-up, you have to
really focus on engaging your back muscles, holding and contracting at the top of the movement. I'm telling you, I rarely get back DOMS. I kid you not, my entire back muscles were severely DOMS'ing yesterday! It felt amazing to know that I hit those muscle correctly!

I did all my pull/chin-ups in a supine position, so no dice
. I was able to do a lot of them without going in a bridge position, so I'm really happy about that
.
Sorry to hear about your yeast infection
. UGH those really suck.
Ya, Kelly is only 14yrs old! I made her cheesecake not long ago, and it turned out really good EXCEPT for the chick pea crust
. Yucky, yuck, yuck
. Next time I will use a different type of flour.

Congrats on B turning 6 months! Time really does go by so fast. My doctor instructed me to start solids at 4 months. Bella loved all the food (thank goodness!). Are you making all the food yourself? That's pretty awesome if you are
. I had good intentions of doing that, but then I got lazy and opted for jar stuff instead
.
