rolling head over a$$ down the trail

Did [almost] 3 miles around Wilde Lake yesterday. Minimal goose dump. The trail was a bitch though. I got lost and ended up wandering aimlessly through a neighborhood for a few minutes until I spotted another trail opening. Don't ask. At one point I thought I was on an f-ing nature hike, complete with waterfall, massively steep trail, and varying species of wildlife. Speaking of massively steep trail... so glad I decided to start my walk my turning right onto the trail instead of left... if I'd had to go UP I think I would have croaked half way and turned around, good thing I was going down. However, on trip number two around the lake, when I thought it was a good idea to randomly do little spurts of running [it was funny... I didn't plan for that and wasn't wearing a sports bra... thought I was going to knock myself out] and then I had jello legs and thought I was going to roll head over ass down the hill/trail. All in all a nice walk yesterday with a great burn!

Today. Weather.com said it was going to rain this afternoon. Thursday is one of my late days at school. By the time I got home, I didn't trust the clouds/rain predictions and decided to do a video on the tv. HAHAHAHA... I a)would have looked like a total jackass had it been recorded b)think dance aerobics are way harder than they look and c)almost punted a kitty cat through the tv on accident. Was still a decent workout at least... ends up it didn't rain all damn afternoon and I could have gone outside for a walk after all... screw you weather.com and your crappy predictions.

We had chicken breasts with roasted tomatoes, mushrooms, and a gorgonzola cheese sauce over whole wheat pasta for dinner thanks to Trader Joe's. Was actually pretty good. I should have taken a picture but was in too much of a fatass hurry to snarf my food down. 

Work the next three nights so dinner will consist of whatever lean cuisine/trader joe dinner I pull out of the freezer.

Speaking of dinner... any ideas on what I should cook for dinner next week???

    lol Allison, you are too funny!! Sounds like a fun trail. I wanna go!

    I love Trader Joe's! That dinner you made sounds delicious!

    I like to do a lot of fish with vegetables on the side. I'm not the best cook, and I definitely can't come up with ideas on my own, so I usually find recipes somewhere.

    I just posted a recipe for vegetable stew on my blog, that's really good. You could also do a big salad with lots of stuff in it, which is surprisingly filling.

    Baby arugula mix
    Crumbled Goat cheese
    Cucumbers
    Tomatoes
    Walnut halves
    dried cranberries
    fat free balsamic vinaigrette

    YUM! That's my fav salad and I always get the ingredients from TJ's. The dressing is really good! And you could add grilled chicken to give it more oomph!:-)

    Good luck with dinner, let us know what you made!:-)

    Keep up the hard work, you're doing awesome:-)
