This pretty much sums up how I feel right now. I CRUSHED IT today. WOOT!! Kids, yesterday was literally a day from hell. That headache and nausea lasted ALL DAY AND ALL NIGHT. I do think it was God trying to tell me to slow down. Because, after laying on my couch immobile, not watching TV or working online or even reading- I felt 1000x better today. Amen!

I did a lovely kickboxing cardio workout this morning - Ilaria's Kickboxing DVD that I love. I was at 400 calories burned when I got the cool-down, so GLYNIS- I added one wee little part of your Tabata suggestion- Squats and OMG!! One set of 8 added a 100 calorie burn!! Kids I am loving the Tabata twist; check it out, it is virtually unlimited the ways to incorporate it and wow the sweat and calorie burn. I'm down. And here's the thing. NO DOUBT ABOUT IT. With kicking butt like this and my diet "plan" I'm working on (stone soup and heroin, plus every other day I do chocolate ONLY with regular Coca Cola haha), I will be HAPPY HAPPY HAPPY again in my hot orange bikini this summer. I WILL. NO DOUBT. 

On that note, this is NOT an April Fool's Joke- I did a SECOND ROUND OF CARDIO when I got home tonight!! I was feeling it, and I was feeling a WEE bit guilty about having this for lunch:

O.M.G. Croque Madame. I did NOT partake in any fries though. So, my morning workout burned 500 calories. I had that for lunch. Then I came home and burned another 500 calories. **Please note, I am not under the delusion that you can just eat whatever you want every day, then come home and "work it off". However, with the understanding that tomorrow is my birthday, and I'm going to be going to ****A CERTAIN ITALIAN RESTAURANT**** for lunch....plus Sunday is Easter and we are celebrating 3 family birthdays, so CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH WHITE ICING WILL BE ENTERING MY STOMACH CAVITY....I think you can see why extra extra cardio MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA. ok?? OK.

Now, I must go bathe because tonight is massage time. I've been sorely without one for at least 5 days. This is unacceptable. And Yes I am a princess. ;-)

Goodnight. If you aren't doing Tabata and you are trying to lose fat, you need to spend some time looking this up and DOING IT. Trust me. I think I may be a size -10 soon at this rate. Yes, Negative 10. I'm sure they have that size right? Isn't Jennifer Aniston a -10? (blleeehhhh I am sooooo tired of hearing about Jennifer Aniston!!! GAH!)

Also- random thought here- Vanity Fair, which I used to consider a somewhat classy publication, is doing a feature spread on 4 of Tiger Wood's "Lovers" (I could use other words here but I'm keeping it rated G). How completely low class and scummy can you get? Does anyone think of the wife here? My God, it is appalling. Why not send them to www.DirtyWhores.com and do a nice layout THERE for crying out loud? Perhaps they'd get some more boyfriends?? It would truly be a "win-win"?? 

Blleeeehhhh. 

Question of the Day: What is YOUR favorite Birthday Meal? (and please don't bore me with something like "I love lean turkey breast on whole wheat")

Whoa. People I did a little 30 minutes of Amy Bento Kettlebell followed by this gem for kickboxing and leg blast. SWEATFEST. What an awesome workout. Totally different than others out there and she just builds and builds and builds. This is the kind of workout where you keep doing it and get better and better in your flexibility and endurance and wow it works the legs- I also wanted to mention that this workout toward the end plus the Tracy Effinger one from yesterday both incorporated (and come to think of it that Amy Bento weight one from earlier in the week did also) the 'sissy squat' variations. I had no idea how TOTALLY DIFFERENTLY this positioning works your lower body. Whoa. I have NOT been doing that in the past and look forward to conquering it more. Yea. See a little peek here below, but you can see more and get your own DVD at Collage Video. (and no I'm not making any $$ from Collage Video, I just use them cuz they have a guarantee and GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE plus video previews...I never had heard of this woman but saw the preview and am SO GLAD I got this!!)

The Video is called Ilaria's Bodystrikes. FYI.
