Day #2

This morning I tackled workout #2 and I thought this was the worst yet. It actually ran about 36 minutes, so not only did it feel longer, it actually was longer. My body is still sore from yesterday, so I think it made it harder for me today, but it didn't stop me from giving it my all. I will do the cardio one again later tonight but I wanted to get a blog in now because I have a feeling it's going to be an early night for me.

I went grocery shopping today and I did a lot of cooking/prep work this afternoon so that I wouldn't have to worry about preparing breakfasts & lunches on the go. Now everything is neatly stacked in my fridge in tupperware.

I'm finding the hardest part about the kickstart your metabolism plan is that there really isn't anything sweet. It's making me want chocolate in a serious way. Next week once eating is allowed to be a little more normal I'll definitely be looking for a healthier sweet snack to indulge in - how about a Wooberry (frozen yogurt) trip to any of my local friends?? I will say this for anyone else doing BR and trying to follow her recipes - I made the vegetable soup for lunch and it was EASY and DELICIOUS. And since it makes 4 servings I've got leftovers! Hurray! It was also my first time poaching chicken and I was worried that it would just taste like rubber and that it wouldn't be cooked all the way through, but to be honest that was delicious as well!

Alright. I'm off to make dinner. It's going to be a toss up between steak and turkey burgers...the decision will definitely be based on what's going to take less time.

And Jillian...thanks for making me want to amputate my legs every time I go down stairs.
