Home to the blog at last

 

It's been a while since I've popped up to say hello. So hello.

urrently I am blogging from Starbucks, and reading a bit of blogs here and there. I can't get enough my regular Soy Cafe Misto w/ Pumpkin Spice. I always opt for Venti, but I realize that I never finish it and that it was best to just get a size smaller (grande). Now that I am almost finished with it, I want more. Am I not satisfied with anything? gah.

 

 

Back soon to edit. I am currently testing out Windows Live Writer because I've heard good things, so lets see how I like it.

Weight training, whey protein, and oatmeal.

Howdy.

I am estatic because I have endorphins raging inside me! I love that feeling that you get after a workout, don't you? I am happy for no apparent reason, and I feel so giddy inside :oD!

This morning I went to my weight training class at school and proceeded to do the rowing machine for 15 minutes to warm-up and then lifted weights. Today was back and bicep.

I felt strong and here are the stats for one hour of weight training:

86% maximum HR due to the rowing machine kicking my ass, that's some good cardio workout I say, but I don't think I have the mentality to row for 30-45 minutes, which is how much cardio I try to strive for a day.

Grunt FACE! grow biceps grow!

After weight training, I was starving and initially thought of starbucks, but I had to drive away and save money. I didn't want to form a habit of mindlessly going to starbucks all the time. I had something better waiting for me at home. Enter: WHEY PROTEIN.

Gotta feed a stressed out muscle right?

With the optimum nutrition whey I got a while ago, I combined it with Amazing Grass's Green Superfood and Wheatgrass.

In the Magic Bullet:

- One cup of almond milk

- scoop of Green SuperFood

- Wheatgrass powder

- Optimum Nutrition whey protein, chocolate

- Frozen bananas

I whipped away and got this...

I think this is much satiable than a regular ole' coffee from starbucks. At least I can wish I got this protein smoothie from starbucks, mind trick wonders.

Paired with oatmeal. Complex Carbs + Protein = Feeding Muscles

In the oatmeal, I added a slash of almond milk, peanut butter, and honey. All together I got a good complete breakfast!

Look what I found while packing, this was me in fourth grade. I loved those overalls, and I love that hair (even though I hated it back then).

I am going to the dentist now, stay tuned for whats to come!

cap'n crunch's peanut butter

After class and stressing about losing a key (which I didn't lose! sorry for making you wait Jeff), I am going to wind down by hitting a few books and studying. Preferrably at a coffee shop sipping on hot tea with my iPod.

I took a visit to Costco to find a Bible (don't ask, or do!) and saw a bulk case of Chobani greek yogurt yogurt and Almond Milk. I didn't get the greek yogurt, but I'll have to suffice :o/ I also didn't find a Bible, and if you are thinking nooo duh why would they possibly sell it there, well I saw that they sold one a few months ago and it was pretty and for a good price. I came out with almond milk and a bag of bananas instead.

Do you ever get nosy and glance over at other peoples purchases? I always do that at Costco, and most of the time I think to myself "I wish I can live in your kitchen!" sometimes due to boredom, or other times just to make assumptions about their diet or purchases! "three cases of tequila, party much?"

After buying almond milk and bananas (smoothies)...I purchased my favorite cereal, Captain Crunch! Love that stuff.

The Peanut Butter Puffs "stay crunchy...even in almond milk". It literally hurt my gums to chomp on them, but I love them nontheless.

My computer is being ridiculously dumb with posting pictures! Maybe it's a sign I need to stop blogging and start studying?

ciao!
