Bum day!

Good morning everyone!

I hope you didn't have too much difficulty with yesterday's routine. I didn't want overexert myself (as I mentioned) and I've never worked my back out before so just to be extra cautious I only did 2 rounds. 

Now attention ladies! It's bum day! Today is a thigh and glute work out for a bigger butt! One of my main concerns with walking 5 miles a day was losing my butt. So when I saw this post on Youtube today I was over joyed! I can't wait to get back from my walk and try this. I really like finding routines that don't need equipment. I'm a firm believer in using your own body weight to the best of your ability. Especially as a girl, you don't want too much muscle tone! So leave the weight lifting to the guys ;)

Last night I swear I made the best dinner I've ever made in my entire life (in my opinion). I'm sure my ex boyfriend would appreciate the BBQ ribs and potatoes I would make over this LOL! But I'm trying to change my food style and let me tell you... It was SO good! I didn't want to stop eating!

Recipe:

• 2 pieces of boneless, skinless chicken
• Sun dried tomato and oregano dressing (I use Kraft)
• Broccoli
• 1 onion 
• A few fist fulls of spinach

Directions:

• Marinade your chicken in sun dried tomato and oregano dressing and cook for 30 minutes at 350

• Heat pan on medium - high with a teaspoon of butter and add your onion and spinach when there's 10 minutes left on your chicken.

• Steam your broccoli when you start to cook your spinach and onions

This salad was also scrumptious! I ate half a head of romaine lettuce before dinner! 

Recipe: 
Romaine lettuce
Cucumber
Tomato
Feta cheese
Light zesty Italian dressing

I planned on making hummus yesterday but some things came up and I didn't get the chance. I will post my recipe tomorrow because it is part of my lunch for today. I have a dentist appointment at 5:30 so my day is revolving around that. I usually do my work out between 3 and 4 but today I have to finish my breakfast and hurry out the door for my walk and get back to do my routine and start getting ready to leave for my appointment. Afterwards I'm meeting up with a girlfriend and we're going for a long evening walk with our dogs! 

Phoebe isn't very good with other dogs but lately she seems to be getting better with more exposure. So I've been trying to bring her around my friend's dogs to get her used to being around other dogs. She's definitely made progress but will not tolerate dogs that we encounter on a walk or in public at any time. If she knows that I brought her to meet another dog she seems to deal with the situation a little better and has more tolerance. 

I'm off to get a start on my lunch, walk and routine!

Have a great day everyone and good luck with the work out! :)

Love, Happiness and Inspiration always,
