Some Ladies I love

Image
It's a confession but I tend to like these women, mark my words LIKE. I don't know them beyond the TV, am not sure they have too great lives other than the fact that they are famous actresses. Maybe someday I will know why I like them, that is a story for another day. Jessica Alba   Emma Stone

Day 15 Update: Billy Blanks Bootcamp

Image
This man kicked my butts in the bootcamp training this morning, more that 50 minutes on my toes. I have decided to pardon him because he looks like my dad (deceased) I know soreness is inevitable tomorrow, all things being equal. I was all sweaty but I felt my heart rate was not as much as I desired anyways. I think I need some HIIT before the week runs out. A healthy hair on my head right now. My hairline looks more healthy but not as healthy as I desired so, relaxing may still wait. If I get a new wig this week, then I have a few months to still stretch my relaxed hair. My mood was nearly destroyed this morning but I felt ok later with a little patience. Woohoo

Day 14 Update: Jessica Smith

Image
http://www.jessicasmithtv.com/ I did some cardio today and running outside wouldn't have given me this much satisfaction. The 40 minutes jog/walk was with Jessica Smith. It was sweaty and fun. What do I love about this woman? SPACE Yes, the fact that she does her workout on such little space like I have in my home makes me tick. I love her way of manipulating that little space to make a whole of calorie-burning-moves. I decided to download more of her workouts in her YouTube channel. I have subscribed and if anything new comes up today I will be among the first to know. The 40 minutes cardio was not too tiresome, neither was it simple. She created so many alternatives either you want it high or low impact. The fact is that which ever one you decide to go for, you will burning calories. WoooooHoooooo!!!! After this post I will be out get some cornrows done on my head by a hair stylist. I hope this one is not as insane as the rest of of them. I just want it simple, w

Day 13 Update: Rest Day

Image
I have decided to rest today although I did 15 reps of back extension. I will try to also walk in place right now just to have my 10 mins in. [It is a must to do it] I have been having allergies for sometimes now and a drug was prescribed to me that seems to work for it although there is always a relapse. This is not the bone of contention but the adverse effects of the drugs on me are totally against my weight loss goals.. 1. Eating without gauge 2. No toileting for 2 days 3. Sleeping without caution I have decided to stop this drugs till I can get to the root of the cause of my allergy. I will however get a cream that should work when the scratching starts. I will surely survive it. Today is wash day and I also decided to do without the mayonnaise [it had made the hair brittle and soft to the level of excess breakage in the other washings] I also did not deep condition today.

Day 12 Update: GO's Birthday

Image
This sponge cake and a bottle of wine for GO's birthday.  It is also a day of abstinence for me too and I am happy for the strength to carry through today. Thank you Jesus for strength. I worked this morning, working on my legs, hips, and butts. It was awesome and nice to work those muscle groups. [...]

Day 11 Update: Full Tommy

Whatever happened today [how healthy that is I do not know] I cannot explain but... Maybe it's the core workout I had in the morning, it is almost 1pm right now and all I have had today is 1 glass of water and 1 orange. I packed my lunch but I am not able to eat it even till now. Whatever happens is a good sign. I actually overate last night too, I took out local garri with lots of vegetables. This morning 10 minutes ended with 37 mins (a constant 37 minutes in a row for sometimes now, why the coincidence). What must be done must be done. We shall be going home early today and I wish to quickly get into washing my hair and getting ready for tomorrow. It's GO's birthday tomorrow. I do not even have enough on me to get a gift but I will most definitely take him out tomorrow, all things being equal.

Day 10 Update: Stretching

After reading a draft of the 10+ minutes streak written by Chris Downie (He warned against sharing the link, I would have posted it here) I decided to change the title of my streak, doing it exactly like his way. I am doing it his way so that I can achieve the recommended results. I have thought deeply on what to use in rewarding myself for keeping to this 10th Day of the Streak and I decided to do some stretching, just to relax and meditate. <link>www.sparkpeople.com/resource/browse-exercises.asp?exercise_type=yoga/stretching&exercise_level=any&equipment=any&bodypart=any</link> I also took a walk to the stores today and got some lip balm and a new type of tooth paste. I hope I will enjoy it better. I want to stop using the processed shea butter for my hair, the smell is not something I appreciate on my hair. There is always a way out though. There is someone that makes inconvenient jokes with me in the office, IT MUST STOP.
