Yesterday was my rest day, and well, apparently I did something right because over the course of one day I went down 5 pounds. Now to figure out what I did. Let’s see… I slept in a little, took a couple Skinny Fiber pills, got on my computer with a mug of coffee, finished my blog post by 12, then fixed my one meal of yesterday that was huge. I hate the sweet potato nachos with ground beef, onions, a whole avocado made into guacamole (so just added white vinegar and sea salt), two fried eggs, and half a sweet pepper. I ate 2/3 of it around 1, then the other 1/3 around 6. Drank another cup of coffee (was fixing my Keurig and needed to brew something), watched a couple documentaries, ate some dark chocolate, browsed pinterest, and bleached my hair. That was my day. So maybe getting the majority of my calories and carbs in the early afternoon? Hm… Worth a shot! Especially for such a dramatic drop when everything else was making me creep up little by little and I was pulling my hair out figuring why.
Speaking of the documentaries I watched yesterday, I’m going to be honest. I love documentaries on Bronies, and after watching one a year ago or so, I started watching the show. I totally see why this is such a thing (I am completely a mix of Rarity and Pinky Pie), but in this one they featured a strong, health conscious Brony who goes by JaxBlade, and I got really excited because I haven’t really talked about it, but I am a born and bred nerd. Like I grew up learning how to play RPG games (Dungeons and Dragons, 1st edition to be precise among others), my first computer game was Wolfenstein 3D around ’93, and I started learning to code when I was ten. I also grew up with Doctor Who, Monty Python, and Pokemon from day 1. So when I learn of a fellow fanatic nerd who is known for being strong and healthy, well, he’s totally going in my blog.
Unfortunately, his YouTube channel is not at all what I thought it was going to be. I was hoping for a line of workout videos themed around My Little Pony, or even just references thrown in while he was doing it. But alas, all it is is reaction videos and the like. While I don’t have a nerd workout for you today (but I will keep looking!), I did find this video called “Housewife Fails” and it hits a little close to home for me. I’m not as bad as this, but the workout portion is definitely me. I try! But really, who wants to do that in their home? Not me. I will work my ass off (literally) in a class with other people, but at home, yeah, no, hand me my phone.
So, I realized that I blog way better when I take the weekend off, so looks like from here on M-F will be new blog posts, somewhere around noon depending how long it takes me to find things to add (also know as getting lost on Pinterest). That and we are usually out of town on weekends, so it’s not the easiest thing to make a new post. So off to the STL this weekend for my sister’s birthday. Hope you all had a great, healthy week, and just a reminder to make good choices this weekend đ I’ll be right there with you… in spirit. In person would be creepy.
