Day Four Coming To A Close

My workout this morning rocked! Must have been that cherry pie from yesterday! I did Meta Hip level1 with double the arms and abs. I did the Breakdown for Combo 3 on DC2 and plan to every day until Friday hen I should have mastered it! Then I did BDC all the way through and DC2 Combination 1 two times. So 37 minutes rocking out cardio plus the breakdown as a warm up.

I put on a new Pandora station today, La Roux. It's a little slow but I LOVE that type of music so it really had me motivated. I actually genuinely was having fun and felt so fantastic at the end. What music do you like to dance to?


Today was spent mostly in the kitchen. I finished making all my purees except the Protein Soup for the next 4 days. Plus, part of my job as a nanny is that I cook once a week for them and bring it over on Tuesday morning. I made white bean and turkey chili and corn bread. It sure smelled good, too bad I can't have any! I don't know how people do this type of diet and have to cook daily for husbands and kids. Must be really tough! I did have a few tiny bites to make sure the seasoning was okay...
And I had a tiny cup of black coffee at Trader Joes when I was shopping, but I did resisted the STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE they were sampling.


Here is what I was busy doing in the kitchen:

I've got steamed sweet potatoes and raw sweet white corn puree going. I find the hand blender to be so much easier for some of the purees. I highly suggest getting one. So much less clean up then the food processor.

Next we have everyone's favorite (a joke) The Carrot and Parsnip Puree!


Another easy one to use the hand blender.

This one is probably my least favorite, but really not so bad. Just kind of bland and earthy. Sure is a pretty color though!

A lot of people on the TAM Facebook fan page seem to feel like the puree's food idea is gross texture wise. I don't mind it at all, but some people have suggested not pureeing some of the food and eating them whole.

I've been reading people's tweets and seeing all the treats people are having on Facebook for Valentine's Day and I have to say I've been tempted to open some wine or have a treat myself. But, then I remember I get to make Chocolate Pudding very soon and it is really so good!

So I'm off to my last meal of the day and then for my pudding!
Thanks for reading!

  1. I haven't tried the carrot/parsnip puree but I really liked them in the roasted root vegetables from bootcamp. Is it that much different?

    I never minded the purees either.

    Keep up the good work!
