Happy Monday, lil puffkins.  While I'm not typically an advocate for Mondays, this one is good (mostly because I got to sleep in and don't have to work).  BUT, tomorrow is my first day as a nurse in Surgery.  I'm ultra excited!  First and foremost because I'm broke and desperately need a paycheck.  Secondly, this means I can move out of my parents house soon!  [Yes, I still live with my parents.  Mock me if you will, but I went through college without racking up insane debt.  In your face!]

Yesterday after signing off I rode my bike for 45 minutes.  Today, I'm walking like an 80 year old cripple (no offense to 80 year old cripples).  I drank a protein shake afterward, which usually helps reduce the pain, but I'm still sore.  No pain, no gain, right?  Right (she said sarcastically).

I really need to go to the grocery today.  Let me rant about this a while.  There is an obesity epidemic in our nation, right?  The government is implementing ways to combat this problem in children and Americans in general, yet for a person to afford a healthy lifestyle they have to take out a second mortgage.  Seriously, when I go to the grocery to pick up healthy options.  I leave with 2 bags and spent $100.  Something is wrong with this picture.  I think I'll learn how to grow my own veggies.  First I'll need my own yard, which I can't afford.

Okay, I'm done venting for now.

I have decided to post my weight loss on here weekly.  Daily weight posts are unnecessary and don't look as productive.

Today's exercise plan:  Pilates (great for your core and your back) and/or Yoga.

Today's meal plan: 
Breakfast - Frosted Mini Wheats with LF milk
Lunch - Mixed greens salad with vinaigrette dressing and half a turkey sandwich
Dinner - Undecided.  I'm thinking chicken, veggies, and rice.  We will see what's in the cupboard.

If you're reading this, I have nicknamed you my little puffkin because you are my follower, not because you are puffy.  [However, if you are also puffy you can join me in this journey!]

Peace out!
