My 10lbs Goodies & My Sweet Husband

Hello Fellow Cheeseburger Lovers,

I have forgotten to post pictures of my 10lbs incentive presents! So here they are! My sweet and lovely husband thought just a work out top was not a big enough incentive so he bought me my first pair of work out leggings too!

I must say I was a little self conscious prancing around in these in the gym, but they are so gorgeous I couldn't help myself! And I obviously love that the outfit matches my new Sneakers! My 15lbs incentive was new work out pants, so I think i'll count these as those as well!

Thank you Beth, for working out with me the last two days! My Buns and Arms have never wanted to hurt you more!(haha, just kidding - even though they do feel like they are going to fall off.)

I wanted to tell you guys, I went for my first run last night (3km) and I ran the entire time! I couldn't breath afterwards but I did it! I have a new recipe for you all to try! It's ridiculously tasty! It takes 10 minutes to make and it makes so much that you could eat it all week! 



Quinoa & Bean Salad
2 cups of quinoa
1 orange pepper
1/3 red onion
1 can of black beans
1 can of corn
Juice from 1 large lime
2 tbs of Olive Oil
Chili Powder to taste
Garlic Powder to taste

Last Night, Today, Tomorrow BUT can't wait for Monday

Today is a day for Today,

My first BBQ of the Summer was last night, and I did really well. I had Salad!!!! (and didn't feel like I needed the Burgers or the Sausage or anything else!) Loving Life! Seriously... I feel like a totally different person. 

It's weird, even though I can feel myself getting smaller - I'm having a "I feel fat day" I think no matter what size you are, everyone has these days. Maybe it's because I ate my cheat meal yesterday and I still have a little bit of guilt. It's weird that I feel bad about my cheat meal when three weeks ago, I ate every meal like my cheat meal! It's so amazing how your mind can change along with your body!! I want the healthy meals, the salad, chicken, quinoa, and vegetables! 

I'm trying a new class today called, More Core. It's an abdominal circuit - I'm really nervous, people at the gym even say it's really hard!! Terrified!!!  Doing it!!

Can't wait to post on Monday! The anticipation is killing me! I'll include pictures too! Thank you again everyone for following me on this terrifying journey. I'll see you on Monday.
