What Goes Around Comes Back Around

Yes, the pound came back. Just like that. Today when I woke up I was at 125.5. Blah. However, I was determined to work out hard! I went during lunch and walked 2.75 miles. After work I met my fantastic work out buddy and did another .75 miles (but on the eliptical) and then together we did chest (bench press, incline press machine and dumbbell flies), triceps (rope pull downs, nose breakers and overhead dumbbell extensions) and abs (crunches, teasers, obliques with balls, ankle wiggles). Great day!

Then it was time for the grocery store! I bought lots of stuff to try new stuff... YAY! Tonight I tried sweet potato fries (YUM - i'm a HUGE fan) and a Morningstar chicken patty (on toasted nature's own light wheat bread w/fat-free mayo and tomatoe slices). I'll post the recipe I made and photos tomorrow! :) Loved it! Can't wait for Austin to try it. (he was out playing poker)

You did great yesterday with your workout! I'll be honest, I don't even know what half that crap is...nose breaker?! lol.

Im absolutely terrified of anything veggie resembling meat. I've heard they've come a long ways so I really should try them.

hehehe In all honesty - they may not be the "official names" - it's just how I know them! haha

You know, I was the same way until Hungry Girl. Her recipes called for Boca this and morningstar that and so I (reluctantly) tried it and it was good - tasted like the "real thing" but had so many less calories/fat/etc. I'm by no means vegan, but when it comes to sausage, humburgers and fried chicken sandwiches I hit up the faux stuff now!
