Non Scale Victories This Week
During last night's LIIFT 4 Shoulders workout, I saw an improvement over last weeks shoulder presses. I was unable to do the 2nd and 3rd sets last week overhead after about 3-4 presses. My left shoulder would literally fall like I'd lost all muscle control with 10 lb weights. Yesterday I used the same 10 lbs and it wasn't until the 7th rep on the second set that I started to feel bad fatigue but pushed through. On the third set my shoulders were shot but I was still able to push overhead even if slower. I pushed to fatigue but didn't have that dangerous muscle drop I had before. The zinnias I grew from seed are mostly in full bloom and I took some pics before cutting some to put in a little vase.

It was a great day hanging out with you, as always, and I had a good time hanging out with the family and eating that yummy Menchies!
ReplyDeleteIt was a wonderful day! Just what we needed and I think people actually liked going to the fro yo place. Next year, dinner where *I* want no matter what side of town! Pffft!
DeleteYesterday is a day I'd just as soon not have pictorial evidence of. The morning was fine, but the afternoon just kept getting worse. Nothing major happened, but a string of annoyances left me all green and hulky by bedtime. Hopefully today will be better.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you had fun at the zoo.
Ugh, let's hope today is picture worthy! :) (And not in a hulky way!)
Deleteyum and awwww....maddie.
ReplyDeletemy day wud have been....me turning greener and redder day by day with the family vacation plans for next month with the in laws...lol...
Isn't she cute?
DeleteOh man, the words "vacation" and "in-laws" do not mix! LOL
Taking care of 3 dogs, biking to work, day at the office, volunteering at animal shelter, biking home in the dark (since it gets dark earlier-boo hoo), welcome home barks from dogs and hubby (ok, he didn't bark), watching the red sox on the couch while eating a sugarfee fudgicle!
ReplyDeleteLong day... but good!
Oh you know the hubby barked! ;)
DeleteSounds like a fun, busy day!
That dog is SO stinkin' cute! I'd cuddle him all day = ) Looks like you had a great day!
ReplyDeleteIsn't she? Her fur was ridiculously soft and she liked to give lots of kisses! :D
DeleteOoooh, what are the chipotle bites? They look good! (as do the pork chops and frozen yogurt. :P)
ReplyDeleteThe chipotle bites are from Trader Joe's. Very yummy and when I tried to recreate them myself, I found that it was only like $.20 more to buy them pre-assembled there so I let them have all the fun and we eat them. HA!
DeleteI need the recipe for your pork chop! It looks awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's super easy! For 2 pork chops I use 3 tbsp brown sugar hickory BBQ sauce and 1 tbsp of chunky apple jelly. After you've grilled up your seasoned chops, brush on the sauce and enjoy! :)
DeleteSorry I missed your birthday. My computer got fried in a power outage and then we had issues restoring it, had to change the operating system, yadda yadda yadda. I wish you the very, very best. I never know if you reply to my posts, never get notices of replies, anyhow. If you ever want to get hold of me, be sure to use my primary email, not my gmail. Sending love to you and your Mr.
ReplyDeleteBoo on fried computers! Thanks so much for the birthday wishes. You're the best girl!
DeleteAww, puppy! And froyo too. Looks like a good day to me. :)
