More Updates!...

Oh hi there...

So I have had no time to post to this blog, but here are a few of the videos that have been uploaded since "last time" I posted (omg I can't believe it's been 2 months!!!).

Those who blog more frequently and with a specific end goal in site for their blog are such an inspiration to me... so dedicated to their craft.

Anyways. I hope you are all doing well, as mentioned in the vlogs, I am in the beginning-middle of a 31 workouts in 31 days...

Though truth be told, if I had been more aware of time and space I would've decided to do 40 in 40 for the season of Lent... Not that I'm especially Catholic/Christian... (I'm not), more just that it rolls off the tongue better

Still deciding if it's worth it to do 40 in 40 ... but we will see how I feel after 31 in 31 :P

anyways...

Onwards and Upwards:

Oh hi there... Happy New Year~!!!

Hello world!

I know... I said I was going to post 1ce a week... ... and I have not been good at all...

So here is a video for you all :)


I have a new computer that can process videos in better quality without shutting down at 99%.
:(
Sorry old computer... you left me so frustrated and unsatisfied when it came to video processing.

No I did not buy my new computer, it was gifted to me by one of my friends :D
and Yes I will be paying it forward by gifting my old computer (which is only just shy of 3 years old - and working well might I add <- minus the video thing *ARGH!*) to one of my friends who has to trek to work on a day off to use the computers there - that sounds less annoying than I'm sure it actually is in real life.

Just wanted to say that I wish all of you a Happy and Successful New Year!

Day 2 Sugar Free... So Sleepy... ....

How am I doing on Day 2?

ZZzzzzZZZZZzzzz *pause to open eyes and blink* ZZzzzzzzZZZZzzzzzZZZZZzzz

repeat ad nauseum

So SLEEPY! All the time!

And I still feel a little queasy - but the queasiness doesn't hit me until the afternoon... and I feel MILES better after I eat.

*sigh*

The Challenge continues

Watch the vlog here!


Sugar free challenge begins!!

So.... I have the memory of a goldfish.

On Day 1 of my challenge... I completely forgot about my "Sugar Free" Diet and ate a Chupa-Chup *creamy* lollipop, and at dinner I ordered a Strawberry Milkshake (delicious!)

Halfway through the milkshake my partner asks me "Hey! Aren't you supposed to be "Sugar Free?""

Ooops.....

So challenge started yesterday November 2, 2013 and will continue onwards until December 14, 2013

Check out my video here for how I'm feeling:



Thank you so much for reading!

What do I wear when I'm not working out?

In case you were wondering what one wears in Canada this time of year?

Showcasing Canadiana with a capital C
Lululemon wear
Fidelity Jeans - the only pair of jeans I own - seriously. **

All products were bought by me  and my hard earned cash.

And trust me, most days... I work HARD for my living


** If your jeans fit you properly you don't need to own a ton - unless you have the capital... and jeans make you THAT happy that it is worth ______x grocery bill...

Measuring amount spent on grocery bill for me always puts things into perspective

"Are these glasses REALLY worth a 2 months worth of groceries for me and my partner?" - "Yes you wear them everyday and need them for life!"

"Is this luxury nail polish  (Butter London I'm looking at you) worth 1/5th of my grocery bill for the week? - No, you wear nail polish next to never"

etc. etc.

:D

November Food Challenge

It's getting chilly up hurrrrr...

I'm changing it up this month and I'm going to work on my diet. ...

I have a sweet tooth, and as much as I hate the word "deny" ...

I KNOW that I have indulged way too much this past year. ... SOOO....


SIX WEEKS SUGAR FREE! ....

Oh my word I am going to be cranky...

I'm planning to not eat refined sugar for the next six weeks

How is this going to work?

Simple.

I already cook most of my food, that will continue. - Obviously no desserts :(

Caffeine? - Work recently extended hours at the coffee shop to 24 hours which will help me get my night shift caffeine fix through English Breakfast tea if I feel the urge

"Natural Sugars"? Blackstrap molasses (haha... like I even know how to cook with it...), Honey (which I DO have and LOVE) are ok. ... I don't typically use Stevia or Agave... or I have to seek it out to come into contact with them, so I probably won't be relying on either for a "fix"

Fruit? Fruit is allowed... If I feel the need for more fruit or more sugary fruit... I'm going to allow that... I just don't see myself eating so much fruit that it rivals that "refined sugar" zing...

...

Fitwaythisway without sugar?... ...

Toronto... be afraid... be VERY afraid...

I will try to blog or vlog regularly during this

Good luck to me!
