Last night I picked up some free Giant's tickets for my wonderful boyfriend to share with his fabulous daughter tonight.
Then I went to the Boot Camp's free "nutrition seminar". They had a nutritionist/dietician guy come speak with us about diet, nutrition, general rules of thumb and good practices. He was very nice, and pretty much everyone seemed interested.
I learned a couple things I didn't know already, like it is good to get your daily dose of "liquid fats", - no not whole milke or Jamba juice, but oils. So flax seed oil and fish oil and olive oil. In fact, he said most people dont get enough and he recommended taking fish oil pills every day. Hmmm . .. . . one woman brought up that they smell really bad- yuck! But hey next time I pass a GNC maybe ill check it out.
He also urged us to eat "whole foods" no processed stuff. The least amount of steps your food goes through from the ground to your mouth the better. I think this is good advise, but a hard one to stick to.
I also like his 90/10 rule. 90% of the time try to stick to those rules, 10% of the time, life happens!
I went home really tired and was distracted with a phone call when I left my garage without my house keys. Luckily a neighbor let me back into the garage.
I made dinner and tried not to stuff myself, even though i was really hungry and went to bed early, well, I tried. Got up at 5am again . . . boot camp was tough today. We were timed on the mile, sit ups and push ups. I did a 15 min and something second mile, 17 push ups in a minute and 37 sit ups in a minute. We also did some strength stuff and lots of stretches. I know my soreness will not go away anytime soon. Oh well. When it was over I was so tired and sweaty. I took a shower and was surprised by how much I got done in an hour, did some dishes, breakfast, packed a lunch, etc.
My legs still hurt, but its getting better. I hope I get to do a little excersize this weekend too!
** I forgot to mention** Remember that pound I gained??? It's gone!!! I'm back to square one . ..for now!

Don't buy those fish oil yet! I will get you the name of the ones I take and they don't smell and you don't burp up fishy tastes. I'm just too lazy to go up stairs and look at the bottle, but I got them at Whole Foods. I will get you the name of them this weekend!
