What I Ate & Workout Wednesday

I don't typically like doing things that every other blogger does, but I do like to throw in a "What I Ate Wednesday" every now and then....just because I know everyone likes to see what other fitness people eat.  Soooo here ya go!

8:15 -
(BEST breakfast everrrr- only bad thing is stopping at just one bowl.)
 1/2 cup oats, 1 scoop Syntha-6, 1 tbsp peanut butter, coffee with cream and Stevia/Sucralose blend sweetener

11:00-
Tuna cheese melts: 1 egg white, 1 can of tuna, garlic and onion powder, and 1 tbsp oats mixed together into 2 patties and cooked on skillet. I topped them each with 1/2 slice of 2% Pepperjack cheese(my new obsession, by the way!), and I ate one on a slice of Ezekiel bread. Also had a handful of grape tomotoes.

2:00-
Coffee w/cream and Stevia blend sweetener

3:15-
 Post workout: vanilla whey protein powder mixed with almond milk and 1/3 scoop of orange gatorade powder

4:30-
2 fried eggs, turkey mixed w/ quinoa and corn and black bean salsa, 1/2 an apple

7:00-
1 cup of broccoli sprinkled with parmesan cheese, chicken breast cooked in crockpot w/tomato sauce and diced tomatoes, added some canned mushrooms and a little spaghetti sauce, a few dark chocolate chips :)


10:00-
Whey protein shake mixed with almond milk, 2 tbsp peanut butter

Workout:
Today was LEG day, oh yeahhhh!!! I had to workout a little later than normal today, since I had to get a cavity filled at the dentist this morning-ugh. I hate going to the dentist!! But I survived. ;)

I am on the third week of "Uncaged", and today was lower body strength and power. This week the weights increased from last week while the number of sets decreased. These are not max weights-I don't go to failure but instead leave a couple reps "in the tank." Next week I get to go for my 5 rep maxes! That should be fun since it's been so long since I've maxed out!

1)Vertical jump: 3x5

2)Back Squat: 2x5 w/155lbs

3)Deadlift: 1x5 w/185lbs

4)1 leg bench squat: 3x6 w/10lb dumbbells at side(these are so hard!)

5a)L-Sit hold: 4x10 seconds



5b)Standing calf raise machine: 4x15 w/90lbs

Finisher:
Double unders x20 + Battle rope slams x20
4 rounds

People always said That time would heal the pain But how can that be When mine still remains? The tears still fall At just the thought of you So I know that what they say Just can't be true As the years go by I miss you so much still  No matter how much time passes I know I always will How are you not here To ease my hurting heart? Never could I have imagined We would ever be apart My world has been shattered A piece of me is gone And all I can do is pray For strength to live on I know that one day soon I will see you again I just have to try to suffer through And make it until then

Putting My Heart Out There

Hey guys. Here's where we're at right now: Matt finished his radiation treatments last week. Did they help? I don't know. He's sleeping a lot more. Having trouble chewing and swallowing. Not eating much. Not talking much, at least not in full sentences. It's just been a slow, steady decline for the last few months. I think it was really too late for radiation....But who knows, maybe it is delaying things. We went in last Tuesday for his infusion and talked with his neuro-oncologist about everything that we've been seeing with Matt, and he decided that we're at the point now where we should discontinue treatments...I feel like it's the right decision, even though it breaks my heart knowing that there is nothing else we can do. But I feel like we've done everything. All the supplements, the diet, the chemo, the radiation... Matt has fought hard. He never gave up hope. He kept the faith. He never complained through any of this. Not once did I hea...

Why?

Why? Why do I care so much?  Why do I make sure they brush their teeth at night so that they don't get cavities? Why do I spend my own money to buy them clothes, toys and decorate their rooms, among other things?  Why do I do 5,000 loads of laundry a week to make sure they have clothes to wear to school? Why do I make sure they go to church on Sundays so that they'll be raised to know about Jesus? Why do I try to give them chores and responsibilities so that they will turn out to be decent human beings? Why do I read them a bedtime story at night, even when I'm exhausted? Why do I clean up after them constantly and cook for them and try to always have healthy snacks and food on hand? Why do I go to their sports games and practices, just to feel like the odd man out standing there awkwardly with their bio mom? Why do I give 100% of myself and make so many sacrifices for children I didn't birth? Only to be insulted and told hurtful things? To be made to feel like I'm ...
