What Would Robin Wear

Well-haven't been doing so well with my diet.  I decided to give my body a rest and have not been to the gym in two weeks. 

I will start again today.  I will do forty minutes on the elliptical and 20 on the bike or treadmill.  I will begin weights again next week. 

I am a very motivated person, do not mistake my motivation for obsession.  While the two hold hands, there is too much I have right now in my life to have this mistaken for obsession.  I am so close to finishing my Master's as an Intervention Specialist for anything to get in my way.  I am also going to start my reading endorsement this summer.  I have no plans to finish that this year, and beleive me I could get it all done, but I would not have much of a summer.  And I really want to relax as much as possible. 

I am drinking my morning protein shake.  It is strawberry AMP Whey Protein.  Three scoops of the powder is 60 grams of protein.  It is the MOST disgusting thing on the planet.  It will take me at least an hour to drink it.  It is flat out nasty.  All the protein drinks are nasty.  I can tolerate the Adkins shakes the best.  Strawberry or chocolate are OK.  They only have 15 grams of protein so I have to drink too many a day and they are uber super expensive.  So the AMP will give me the protein I need in one nasty tall disgusting glass....Trust me this crap is not delicious at all, it's gross.  BUT-it will keep you from losing muscle and hair.  And a bald Robin is just not attractive at all....

I am also taking the Mega Green Tea Dietary Supplements.  They make me slightly hyper, but that is a good thing I think.  I have zoomed around the yard and the pool is open and it looks amazing...painted the shed bar, the doors-raked, mowed, I didn't stop for two weeks.  I cannot take them after 3 in the afternoon or I do not sleep.  So I take one for breakfast. 

Since I took two weeks off the gym, I have gained four pounds.  Yes four pounds in two weeks.  With all the birthdays and parties this month.  I do believe it is the beer consumption.  Even though I only drink Mich Ultra, it is just a waste of calories, but nonetheless much needed fun and relaxation and above all;  LAUGHTER with my friends! 

I have to get this four pounds off me, and try to jump start this stubborn body of mine, this week is not going to be a good week for me, so I would advise you all to stay away....LOL!
