Manic Monday: Firemen & Cooking Oh My

Hey NeverEver's,

I hope you guys have seen the new 'page' buttons on the top of the screen! I am still working on them and hope to have all my changes done by the end of this week!

Let me know what you guys think about my 'About' page. I tried not to make it to long...especially about my childhood.

Anyways, had an interesting experience at my temporary work today. Somehow the fire alarm got pulled and we all have to get out of the building. It was like a maze with people really not knowing what to do. Kind of sad when I think back to all the Fire Drills we had at school. I know I wasn't the only one that looked forward to those days!

Sadly my fire(wo)men did not come half dressed!

So we all are outside, finally, and small and big firetrucks, ambulances and some other emergency vehicles appeared but I am not sure what they actually were.

We, those that were hourly, were allowed to go home after the management team were informed that the professionals needed to check the whole building! So I got to come home early today ^_^.

After being sent home, I went to Target to get some food shopping done. Picked up lunch and dinner supplies. I do have to say, I like the Target food mart! You can really find basically everything you need, unless you want Organic or something that needs Trader Joe's or Fresh & Easy. But my list was simple so Target was perfect for me.

Dinner was a small affair tonight. Since I came home early I had lots of time to think about what I wanted tonight. But usually we eat dinner around 6 or 7pm, but since I have a gym date tonight I couldn't eat that late. So I changed everyone's schedule and as soon as everyone was at home dinner was severed!

Tonight's was a 3oz steak each that was cooked in Worcestershire sauce and EVOO. I did add some light garlic powder, which I think gave the steak its kick!

Side dish was California Grown Golden Potato, which was so yummy! It was soft inside and crispy outside. So perfect that all I needed to do was add a small dash of pepper.

Plus some Organic String Beans. I added a small amount of EVOO on top of the beans and I felt that it went right along with the crunchy-ness.

All in All dinner was a success, even if I did have dinner a little earlier!

Daily Stats Day 61:

For a quite Sunday, I am pretty happy with these stats!

Okay NeverEver's, I have to get ready for my Gym date and my Monday Weigh In! I am slightly afraid what that gym scale is gonna say, but I can't change if I don't know!

What did you guys have for dinner tonight?

See you all tomorrow!

Manic Weigh In Monday: Day 28 + Spinning

Hey NeverEver's!

I have to say...there is a reason why I avoided spin. I watched them all spinning on the bikes that go no where. Listened to the instructor say 'Turn the knob a turn and half, We will be feeling it this song' and watched while the people come out drenched but still smiling!

While watching I always said 'That is to hard' or 'You aren't at that level yet, workout some more and then you can go to that class'. Well today I decided I was tired of listening to that inner voice telling me I couldn't do it yet.

So before I was able to talk myself out of it, and I am a good talker outer, I signed myself up for Spin at 24 Hour Fitness. And to MAKE sure I went I made sure everyone who follows me on twitter knew I was going...I wasn't going to back out now that there was 'internet pressure' on me!

Well the results were in someways exactly what I thought it would be...VERY FREAKING HARD!! But I made it through. Only stopping 2x, and that was to get more water and I only went during a 'Water Break'. That is where you sit in the 'saddle' and drink water while still spinning. I wasn't always able to stay out of the 'saddle' but I made sure if I sat my rump down I still moved my legs!

I am proud to say that when I walked out of the class I was one of those 'drenched but still smiling' people!

Anyways back to my Weigh In Day!

Have to say...I didn't lose a pound last week. Although I really am not surprised as I was dealing with some lawyer issues and was traveling all over So. Cal. i have to say that I am more proud of the fact that I didn't GAIN any weight! Now that is something to celebrate!!

Here is my stats for Monday;

Not a bad day

I will say I am disappointed that I didn't hit my Calories Burned Target. But there is always tomorrow, and tomorrow is Les Mils Body Pump!

So I wanted to add a new thing here for Manic Weigh In Monday's...that is my weekly schedule, or what I am planning on doing! Here it is

• Tuesday: Les Mils Body Pump, followed by 45 minutes on a cardio machine, not sure which one though
• Wednesday: There is a new class called H.I.I.T or (High Intensity Interval Training) which I want to try. If there is no post on Wednesday night it means I didn't survive the class ^_^. Also looking for a new job, yay fun!
• Thursday: I really want to do a Zumba day for Thursday, but it depends on the H.I.I.T class. I might make this day a walk in the park day!
• Friday: My Wonderful Day of Rest!
• Saturday: Also a sorta day of rest as the Hubby and I use this as our day together
• Sunday: Gym workout with a buddy, never know what I will be doing ^_~

Okay NeverEver's, so what do you think about the 'Weekly Schedule'? What are your plans for this weeks work out? 

Have a good night NeverEver's!
