I don't have a complete food journal for Friday, because after work. I came straight home instead of stropping by the gym and just ate a lot of carbs - CHIPS, CEREAL, huge bowl of BROWN RICE. I should've stopped by the gym as originally planned, but I am currently peeved off at LA fitness . Friday afternoon, I found out I had already paid for the month of February and March. This royally pisses me off because the whole month of February, I've been working out at home and doing a lot of cardio when all that time I had gym access.  Even though I DID NOT want to pay for it. But what can you do? BAD business ethics, and they won't refund my money. I was so frustrated and irritated that I wanted to punch & kick everything on my way out yesterday. In hindsight, I should've gone into the gym and kicked at the punching bag - since oh hey I can go into the gym. I had to go straight to work however. Crumbling paper up and glaring at inanimate objects helped me calm d

I like to eat donuts for breakfast. It makes the rest of the day awesome :) haha But you can't have too much awesome in one week I think treating myself in the morning helps motivate me for the rest of the day. I personally think it's better to eat most of your carbs in the morning so your body can metabolize it while you're awake and active. Although an evening beer would be a nice way to treat yoself too... haha Thursday food diary

Tuesday's food journal So, my newest obsession may be   microwaved cheese crackers  :D They're made so magically and easily! I just get shredded cheese and put a thin layer onto a microwave-safe plate. Then heat it up in the microwave for about 60 seconds. It's ok when the cheese is bubbling. I let it cool down for a little so it'll be slightly crunchy when I nom into it :) Oh, today I woke up quite late and didn't workout.. BUT I was finally able to get the 2 year 24 hr fitness gym membership  from Costco. I SO missed going to the gym and squatting and lifting and getting butt gains. Also, haha today is the start of the 3rd day of not washing hair. Incredible! I am someone who absolutely loves to shower and gets grumpy when I feel oily and icky. I also workout pretty much everyday. Sometimes even twice a day. Therefore, I used to shower daily. However, during the colder periods of this winter, I noticed my hair and skin were probably being overly washed

I tell my manfriend this ALL the time. He's been patiently waiting lol. Last week (end of week 7), I was browsing through instagram and #kaylaitsines when I realized that it has already passed the halfway point of 12 weeks! I should be halfway to abs, but I'm not sure if I really am. My diet has not been on par, so it's time to kick it up a notch and really be closer to getting abs in the next (ONLY) 4 more weeks!  But first, lemme get a donut . FREE donut today at all krispy kreme stores! It's ok bro, I added it to my macros already :)) Flexible dieting  for the win But the bad thing about going to krispy kreme is that I just can't stop at just one donut. Haha I ended up getting 4 donuts total - to share with family of course! haha ;) I haven't had donuts since early December in Seattle. Unfortunately, we went to get the donuts in the evening so they didn't have much selection and also the donuts were cold. :( I have forgotten, hot, fresh don

I'm going to try to input my calories and macros through myfitnesspal and just put up my food journal on here. LOL don't judge my random meals. And also even though my calories may not be "a lot," I eat intuitively and eat when I'm hungry. Also, yesterday's Monday, I woke up a bit late - a little before lunch time. That is why I only had 2 meals. Workout:  Fasted Kayla Itsines Week 10 Monday - Legs Mondaze are hard; have to get back to the weekly grind! Let's make the last week of February great! + saved my carbs for an evening beer o:)

Friday - Fasted cardio : week 7 of Kayla Itsines workouts. I did the whole thang and made it a Total body workout : legs, abs, arms, cardio. It was lots of burpees, sump squats, pushups, leg raises - Bfast   coach's oats with frozen fruits and activia strawberry yogurt -Lunch wheat bread sandwich with ham, gouda cheese, and avocado -Dinner pan-fried corvina fish - Snack : lots of chips :( Earlier this week I originally decided I wanted to do IIFYM/flexible dieting. I was going to try out 40C 35P 25F, because this girl wants to eat her carbs and still get abs and live that fit girl dream! However, I remembered that I bought gelatin capsules because I read that they can help with plateaus and generally have great health benefits. BUT, it seems to really jumpstart fat loss when done conjointly with a keto/low carb diet . Guess I'm back to doing keto/low carb for a bit. I ate way too many 'unhealthy' processed carbs this week anyways o:) PS: wha

Thursday - Fasted cardio : sumo squat jumps, jumping lunges, ab wheels, pushups, mountain climbers -Bfast strawberry, banana smoothie salad with walnuts, tangerine, avocado, onions, cucumber. Italian dressing -Lunch 1 slice of wheat bread + cheese + sandwich meat activia yogurt -Dinner Korean rice cake soup because it's Lunar New Year!  look at those carby goodness haha

I've been wanting to hike to the Potato chip rock for a long time. But it is a bit inland of San Diego and whenever we went to SD, we had other plans. So this was a spur of the moment thing when my friend invited us the night before! Sometimes I like to plan out fun things in advance, but other times, spontaneity is great too. I would've been at home happily Netflixing if I didn't go hike :P (it was a busy week with a little bit of stress!) Ok, the hike was at a steep incline for the whole 4 miles uphill. Wow, I was sweating the entire time and I was also out of breath the majority of the time. Hobbes  the corgi was such a champ however; he was being alpha dog and quite aggressively finished the hike. I did not know a corgi could waddle so passionately ahaha. We finally reached the potato chip and saw a line of people waiting to take a picture on it. No one ever tells you that it's quite scary to jump into a crevice and climb up to the rock. AND that the drop from

Tuesday, Jan 27 Workout: Didn't workout this day. Still ate low carb/keto &  kept full with the Costco Mamma chia blackberry hibiscus drink . A bit too sweet for me but the whole bottle only has 64 g of carbs and it can last you for a whole week. Also , I rearranged my clothes and truly found out how many sports bras I own! Seeing all the sports bras I own, I feel like I should be a buff girl by now! haha why is getting abs and growing a butt hard? I must like food too much? That must be it. Wednesday, Jan 28 Workout: Fasted cardio in the morning 4 rounds of 7 minute HIIT Ate Souplantation but stayed away from the carby stuff (pasta and baked goods). In the evening after work, I felt like doing more cardio since I had a buffet of veggies earlier o:). Did Kayla Itsines week 4 Wednesday (arms & ABs) workout. It also helped energize me to work on my research paper. Thursday, Jan 29 Finally done with my month long course that I had to wake up early
