1.5.10: Some Cakes, Some Workouts, Some Other Stuff...

Good news! I am down 3 of the 5 lbs I gained-woohoo!



Cakes:
DH's Birthday is Thursday but since I will be out of town I made him his birthday cupcakes on Sunday. Here they are pool balls, his favorite hobby is pool! White cupcakes with marshmellow flavored buttercream icing and fondant accents:


And our New Years cake. Mocha cake with mocha filling and chocolate buttercream icing and fondant accents with pearl dust:



I have been working out, have to burn off all that cake afterall! Actually I only had a TINY slice of the new years cake and left the rest w/ our friends. And we gave away some of the cupcakes to the neighbors.  ( Custom cakes by Lindsey Lu. Phoenix custom cakes. Specialty Cakes Phoenix. Arizona custom specialty cakes. Specialty cupcakes phoenix. Custom cupcakes )

Today's Workout:
-Firm Express Cardio
-Firm Rock Solid Abs
*total w/o time 60 min + stretch

This was my least fav Wave w/o. I actually ripped that sucker right out of the dvd player mid-w/o the 1st time I did it, I hated it that much! But like the rest of the Wave w/o's-the more I do it, the more I like it. I really focused on the moves today and got a decent ab w/o and actually enjoyed it quite a bit.

I also got in a nice lunchtime walk!

Monday's Workout:
-Firm Ultimate Calorie Blaster + bonus ab w/o

This used to be my favorite Firm, but then I got about a million more of them and while I still enjoy it, Jiggle Free Arms is my fav now!

Wednesday's Workout:

-Firm Rock Solid Buns

-Firm Lower Body Sculpt II

*total w/o time 60 min + stretch

I was planning on a more intense w/o Wed but I ate salty food for breakfast, which made me thirsty and then I chugged a TON of water and knew I could not handle a super intense w/o...salty food before a workout= bad idea.

Today's Tip: Salmon

Wild salmon is rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which may help your arteries stay healthy and alleviate depression. It also contains a bunch of vitamins, including A (to protect your eyes), B12 (which helps make red blood cells), and niacin (to enhance digestion). Aim to reel in at least one -ounce serving of wild salmon a week. You should have three servings of fish high in omega-3's each week; besides salmon, try herring, mackerel, sardines or rainbow trout.
