Sunday..mixed feelings

To start things off right...here is a picture of the Kelly Clarkson/Parachute concert. I will be posting pictures daily for the next week until I get them all up:



I did 55min @ the gym= 537cal/5.73 miles and literally sprinted into the change room so I could make my brownie batter!







This is my lunch:




My weekend buddy picked me up, and we went to see Zombie Land (I would TOTALLY pick Woody Harrelson's character!), Superstore (Romaine FAIL) and of course, Sunday Safeway (Crystal Light FAIL). We went to Community Natural Foods, and I finally restocked my Celestial Seasonings Mango Acai tea. EVERY Superstore, Safeway, Coop, Walmart etc has been out for 2 weeks now. We were wondering if it had been discontinued. I also got Salsa, a spiralizer, and a seaweed salad. I got ANOTHER huge ass pyrex bowl and a cheap but fully forged utility knife, tuna, more salsa, spices, broccoli slaw, canned wax beans, radishes etc

I was getting really irritated with him, because he is fishing for sympathy and trying to make me feel something I'm not (for him) and say what he wants me to say. We are supposed to go tomorrow to see Kurbaan- I don't know if I want to. Dinner was good but rushed. Unpictured 23 seaweed nori sheets, 5 GG Scandinavian Bran Crisp Breads, 6 jello, 1 entire pint 340g tub of cherry tomatoes and a yellow pepper.

Amazing Grass Chocolate Super Fiber Brownie Batter Pudding and Dinner

I think I've made it pretty evident, but I hate Sundays (unless I have Monday off)! So depressing, and I always feel like I`m under so much pressure to make the best of it and fully take advantage of the `last free day`. I end up so stressed.

I don`t know if it`s solely due to the new B12 I am taking, but my energy has been phenomenal since I bought them. It took me forever to fine Methylcobalamin (the active form) versus Cyanacobalamin (in active, needs to be converted in body) which is ubiquitous in most supplements. Obviously, the huge health food mega store had lots to choose from. I am hoping that my body doesn`t adapt to it, and I keep getting such great energy. We will see as I am leaving for the gym in about 20min.

The plan is: Community Natural Foods, Safeway (my sunday Safeway store naturally), maybe Superstore to get more Dole Romaine? Who knows. My weekend friend has been acting manipulative/depressed lately. Very moody and controlling. I want to back hand him and yell 'stop touching me'. Everytime he finds out I may be going out to see other friends, his demeanor completely changes, and he answers of texts in 1 word answers, doesn't make eye contact, does a lot of shrugging and 'whatever's'. It's pathetic. He also fishes for attention, and sympathy, and will always repeats his pathetic one-liners! ARGH. 'I have all the (time/love) in the world for you', 'I just want you happy and healthy', "you can have it as it is the last picture I am ever drawing' (in this depressed voice". Then he will repeat it about 3x 'do you want to take the picture now, as it's the last one I'm ever drawing'. I finally said 'I heard you the first 3 times, but I'll take it tomorrow so I don't scrunch it'. He answered 'I don't care if you scrunch it- it's the LAST ONE I'M EVER drawing anyways...". Very unstable.

He also likes to point out/repeat all the stuff he bought me. Well, you have 5 packs of TUNA now (and he'll say it like 10x). I'm like, I am aware of this and have already thanked you. If I don't react how he wants me to, he gets all quiet and shruggy/whatever attitude. If he has something to say, just say it and stop with these childish games. I am not buying into them.

I think going to see a movie will be a good idea time killing-wise. I also want to go to Bed Bath and Beyond, and they apparently have Montel's Living Well Health Master!!!

Knowing him, he will point out (as he does all the time) how he bought me the Bullet Express, and how much he paid, plus US conversion, shipping etc, and now it's in stores blah blah. Take me by the elbow to lead me to look at it. Make a statement about the Magic Bullet, and how he bought that accidentally instead, and how he wishes he got me the right one, and how it pisses him off " (I rarely buy in and ask 'why are you pissed off') because he wishes he got the Bullet Platinum  for me instead of the Single Shot etc.

Back from GYM-KILLER WORKOUT!!! Did 60min:601cal/ 6.45miles!
Had my Amazing Grass Super Greens Chocolate 4 Fiber mix of brownie batter heaven:

Happy Canada Day!

Had today off as it is Canada Day and I definitely needed a break. Woke up early and had to wait until 9am for my gym to open. Went for my cardio and ended up having a wonderful, energized 53 minute cardio workout! After I showered, ate my bran+greens concoction, measured out some protein (IsoSensations 93 in Chocolate Fudge this time) for my protein cakes and went home to eat and get ready to meet my friend for a movie. I ended up scrubbing my kitchen down and then having a light lunch of 2 cans of whole yellow wax beans, 1 can of bamboo shoots with mustard and Walden Farms Bacon Ranch Dip, some baby carrots, 1/2 a red bell pepper, 1/2 a Roma tomato, and 1 cucumber with crystal light, cinnamon, jello and lemon juice. I also had 6 or so Sushi Seaweed wrappers and Mr. Freezies (sugar free).
My canned whole wax beans, baby carrots, mustard, salt pepper and tomato.
Cucumber salad
Canned beans #2 with more baby carrots, and Bacon Ranch Walden Farms Dip.

Canned Bamboo shoots, red pepper,mustard and sushi seaweed sheets.



I went to meet my friend at around 1:20 to go see Public Enemies @ 2pm (LOVE Christian Bale!) but by the time we got there the mall parking lot was packed and the theatre was FULL.


It turned out to be a good thing because we spent the afternoon checking out all the health food stores I haven't visited in years. He drove me to Planet Organic first, then to Sunterra market, Shoppers Drug Mart, London Drugs, Super Drug mart, and finally to Safeway where I bought orange and red peppers, cucumbers, 2 cans of tuna, a 6 pack of Nestle splash pure life water in Grape and another one in raspberry lime, 2 jars of Old Dutch Restaurante Salsas and 4 cans of Whole wax beans.


It looked like it was going to rain and I made it home just in time. He had previously picked me up 3 boxes of Protilife chocolate shake mixes to I was really happy about that.

I made my sweet cucumber concoction, my protein cakes and 'cheesecake' souffle thing:


And then had my usual dinner. All in all, it was a really nice day!
