Nice Stems!

Oh the legs.. the legs.  I did my Legs workout this morning and I'm feeling a little weak right now lol.  Last night I went to Bellydance in Rabbit Hash and danced for about an hour and a half and got a good sweat on!  I miss dancing a lot and I was very happy to be able to do it again!
My workout this morning went as follows:
TIMEEXERCISEREPSWEIGHTSETS
10 MINELLIPTICALFASTN/A1
 OVERHEAD PRESS AND SQUAT1015 3
 CABLE SQUAT TO PUNCH10303
 DUMBBELL PUNCH30 SEC53
 WEIGHTED BACK SLIDE10903
 CALF RAISES (STRAIGHT/INNER/OUTER)10/10/10303
 WALL SITS30 SECN/A3
10 MINBIKEFASTN/A1


Tomorrow is Shoulders and Back :) 
I'm excited about these new workouts but am wondering if I should switch them up and have 2 or 3 days of pure cardio and lessen the strength training?  I have a fear of loose skin which is a big reason why I do so much of the strength training... and I just love muscles (we've already went over that, right?) :)

I feel like crap today.  I very easily made the decision yesterday that I will no longer be drinking alcohol in excess.  Nothing good comes from it, really.  I can't even enjoy myself anymore because I know that I still have to get up early with Nora and I still have a ton of responsibilities waiting for me when I get home.. and it's just not worth it!  I mean seriously, I'm working on day 2 of a freakin hangover.  Pathetic.  My sister's famous quote, "I'm done!".

Menu for Today:
Breakfast:
Chocolate Protein Shake w/ Skim Milk

Snack:
LF Vanilla Yogurt w/ strawberries and fruit and nut granola

Lunch:
Chick Pea Salad (chick peas, banana peppers, red onion, feta cheese, diced tomato, EVOO, garlic infused red wine vinegar) and chopped grilled chicken

Snack:
Organic raw almonds

Dinner:
Turkey Meatloaf
Roasted Veggies

The weather is a stormy mess today so I do believe this evening will be a lazy one!  Considering the fact that I got NO sleep last night.. I'm completely okay with that. 

Well, until tomorrow!
