A Day With Family!

I got up this morning and thought this is going to be a good day! My son and his beautiful fiance were coming up..
Then it was going to be a cook out with friends tonight! So I got up and grabbed a glass of water, stuck my oatmeal on the stove, walked the dogs and came back into breakfast...oatmeal with blueberries, flax seed and vanilla protien powder, almond milk on the side with a B12 vitamin!
After my power breakfast I headed to the Y to get my workout in before the 'kids' arrived. Thirty minute HILT style workout on the treadmill...3 miles, followed by a leg workout and abs....squats, lunges, standing calves, leg press, calve press, leg curls, abductors, adductions, weighted crunches, reverse crunches, and incline crunches with medicine ball toss!!
Headed home and grabbed a protien smoothie made with coffee, almond milk, chocolate protien powder, banana and ice. Studied for a while as I sipped on my mocha latte, then got ready for the afternon. Kids arrived and it got crazy with all the playing...a water fight with my son, jumping on the trampoline and just chasing around the yard and the house. We enjoyed a nice clean lunch of Baked chicken, green beans and carrots and sweet potato, with a glass of green tea.
Chillin out tonight watching the Biggest Losers and working on my summer challenge plans....Dinner was left overs from lunch minus the sweet potatoe...I did have a pre workout snack of banana and peanut butter and downed a gallon of water today! The cook out got postpone until tomorrow night...so this week is busy at night, with Bible study on Thursday and a birthday party of one of my youngest's friends on Friday!

In order to lose motivation, all it takes is an obstacle to serve as an excuse. To the motivated, an obstacle serves as an opportunity to build character. Look for those obstacle to catapult yourself to the next level!
