BE FIT.

first I want to say I'm so happy that the girls from Cleveland survived their kidnappings and are finally free after all those years. also, to Charles Ramsey the guy who helped save the girls.. may God Bless you. not only did you help save them, but you're hilarious. God Bless you all.


(Cleveland at it's finest!)

I've been trying really hard to workout and eat healthier. it's been going great so far! I'm down 2 pounds at the end of the first week, woot woot!

the other day for lunch I made a hella delicious wrap.

I sauteed some fresh spinach with a little garlic, warmed up a little turkey, sliced up a tomato, and warmed the whole-wheat tortilla wrap. piled it all on the wrap, sprinkled a few crispy onions, and drizzled on a little red wine vinaigrette.

it was seriously phenom. and it was healthier than eating chicken nuggets.
plus, I've been eating more veggies and trying to eat more fruit. even though the fruit is kinda failing.. since I don't like much of it.

yesterday for breakfast I made a protein shake. it consisted of a scoop of protein powder, a banana, a little peanut butter, and some milk. it was pretty damn good.
lunch time I made a tomato//pepper open-faced thing. I just toasted a piece of bread. topped it with two slices of tomato, and a few 'hot' peppers (homegrown by friends of ours, they're technically hot peppers, but they're not hot in my opinion.. but they are very tasty) and then drizzled a little red wine vinaigrette over the top, and enjoyed it. I've been on a tomato kick lately. I also had some green beans, too. yum!

thanks to Sarah for the open-faced sandwich tip!

workout wise, every day I've been trying to do push-ups, sit-ups, squats, and calf raises. plus some days I run my street, or do a workout dvd, or the elliptical. it's been going well so far, except I got scorched with sunburn from running my street. that wasn't very fun.
oh, and I heard about this workout app, which I already love! It's called Daily Workout. I forget what blog I read about it on, but thank you to that person! 

here's to another week of getting fit!
anyone have any tips//tricks that helps motivate them? or a good, easy, healthy recipe? 


one more thing...
