Arms and Abs Day

So last night, I decided to work against my knees. I got on the treadmill and just walked for 25 minutes at an incline. I figured it would be safe for my knee and still burn some major calories at the same time. Eventually walking got boring so I ran a little bit too. Then I did 15 minutes on the elliptical, stretched and called it a day.

My knee hurt so bad it kept me up all night. So I'm going to make a doctor's appointment. I'm pretty sure the doctor is going to say that I need to rest and lose weight because my knees can't handle the pressure of running with all that extra weight. Blah...

So I declare today, "Arms and Abs Day." I figure I can work out my flabby arms and my gut without bothering my WITCH of a knee cap. We'll see.



Last night I took these (best canned refried beans in the world!)



This. (yellow squash and zucchini)



Several shakes of the HOT stuff.



And made a big egg scramble using 3 eggs. (This served both me and Andy.)



And made breakfast for dinner burritos. I just added sour cream and salsa to the egg scramble and refried beans. It was so good! And filling.



and I added half of a crumbled up burger for the other night for protein. I'm gonna need it after today. I plan on pumping some serious iron after working today. What are you favorite arm or abs moves?



My sister Sarah who I love dearly, brought me some cupcakes.



And not just any cupcakes, Sprinkles Cupcakes!



One red velvet and one chocolate peanut butter.



Andy and I split these while watching Dexter Season 3. The chocolate peanut butter was fab and totally worth the calories. But the red velvet tasted artificial and gross. Must be all the food dye or something.

Thanks Sarah! Check out Sarah's dating blog here. See? I told you I would link up to you!

As for now, I'm on my way out the door to sub for an elementary school. I'm only subbing a partial day and I have NO idea what grade, what to do or what to wear. I am semi-stressed.

Just don't make me watch that bloodborne pathogen video ever again. PLEASE
