I ��heart�� doppio essperssos!!! I usually get a venti Americano no room, but I was really draggin this morning so wanted the straight dope so to peak ;).

So good. The Italians totally know the way to drink coffee. It comes in a shot glass, is super strong, but delicious and warm. It doesn��t take a lot of room so it��s a perfect pick me up. I imagine transporting it might be an issue, but you can totally shot the drink and be done with it and not have to worry about transport ;). I still love Americano��s as well, but sometime you just don��t want the extra water ya know?

Hmmm caffeine is kicking in!!! Buzzz buzz buzz.

So weigh in was 138 lbs. That��s better. I��ve still got a bit of bloat, but my lower abs are totally coming into view and my definition is coming back. YAY! Arms, abs, chest, and back. That is what I��m talking about!

Workout break down from yesterday:

141 lbs �V Whooo nelly!

AM �V 30 min chest lifts
AM �V 30 min butt lifts
AM �V 60 min elliptical w/arms
PM �V 60 min step mill
PM �V 45 min elliptical w/arms

I went out to lunch with a friend so I did the PM cardio instead. I was a total sweaty mess and exhausted. I didn��t get home to my hubby until 10pm. I ate a little then crashed at 12pm and got up at 4:51am this morning. Hence the doppio espresso��.

Today��s workout:

138 lbs �V more like it.

AM �V 30 min back lifts
AM �V 60 min elliptical w/arms
AM �V 45 min elliptical w/out arms

Sweaty, sweaty, sweaty.

I��m all caught up with my make up workouts from Sunday and today, but I still have my AF cardio to do today. I��ll probably just do 45 minutes as I��ve got a meeting to go to this afternoon.

This weekend we��re going to the Beach House to hang with the Smith family so I��m trying to double up my workouts where I can to get them in. I��ll plan on going running on Sunday and maybe Monday before we leave for home. Saturday I��ll get up early to get my abs and cardio in for the day so I can relax and enjoy myself. I��m planning on either bringing or buying food for the trip. I plan on having any fresh fish they guys catch and crab, but I��ll bring fixings for breakfast and snacks and what not. I��ll probably keep alcohol to a minimum if I have any at all. It will most likely be wine. Matter of fact we will probably bring/buy some for the trip. I��m just trying to keep things real and get back to where I was as quickly as possible. I don��t want to start getting comfortable ya know? I actually felt fat toward the end of the honeymoon and the headaches didn��t help. My body likes to move and clean eating I guess? ;)

I��m done with on call today YAY!

I��ll try to get my second cardio session done this afternoon so I can see my sweetie for longer than 1 hour before I pass out ;). I need some TLC people!!!! Oh and sleep ;).
