And on the third day, God created...

Blisters! WTF? I think they came from the shoes I wore walking yesterday. But I found them this morning when I put them on again for my walk with doggies. Shhhheeeeeit! ow ow ow, and I keep bumping them. At least I have proof of actual activity.

Another bit of "proof" that I'm doing something right is the amount of natural gas I am currently able to produce. Yes, readers, the almighty fiber and roughage gods are smiling on me tonight. Good thing it's just me and the doggies.

Speaking of creating - I actually cooked a nice meal for myself tonight. I got basil, oregano, and parsley from the garden as well as a green pepper. I made faux eggplant Parmesan - it was eggplant layered in homemade marinara sauce. Sprinkling of that dried romano grated stuff was the only cheese. Over fettuccine it was bliss! I also pan-seared / fried some boneless pork tenderloin chops - heaven!

Yesterday I used "the beast" at the gym a.k.a. the elliptical. Today my quads are ON FIRE! I'm assuming it's from that thing. I did do 200 pounds on the leg extension whatever machine, so it may have been a combo? IDK. I just know that I hurt. A lot. Ow. But it's another indication that I've tapped into a new level of fun with my fitness endeavors.

I did walk the dogs this morning. Ow ow ow on the blisters. Need to wear different shoes out there tomorrow. I did go to the gym. Did a short weights workout after warming up on the elliptical beast - 5 minutes of HELL! Then I did 30 minutes on the treadmill. That was tough this morning. I was very tired because I was up too late reading "The Last Summer (of You and Me) by Barbara Brashares. She wrote Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. I LOVED the book I just finished, and I am going to the library tomorrow to see about scoring other books by her. I laffed, I cried. So good.

No walky doggies this evening. I'm too pooped. I even took a snore and drool nap today, and I still feel exhausted.

Well, tomorrow is another day. Hoping my blisters are better, the humidity is down, we've gotten some rain, I can get up earlier, and that I have a kick ass workout at the gym.

I stayed under calories today, by the way. I had a Subway veggie sub! It was yummy. I knew it would be.

Thanks for reading Fat Don't Wrinkle.
