My weight isn't going down so I need to re-evaluate what I'm doing. Benny says I'm eating more so that's the problem. Yes, I'm eating more but I don't think it's enough to tip the scales so much. I want to lift heavier, but not like bodybuilders, so I've been trying to eat more protein. It's been suggested that I drink protein shakes. This doesn't seem like the best option to me since none I've tried kept me satiated. For how long does your favorite protein shake keep you full?
Fellow girls who lift, how did you tweak your diet so that you could go heavier?
Mind Dimensions Omnibus Review
Have you ever read anything that you HAVE to put down as opposed to continue reading because it is in your head so much? This is Mind Dimensions Omnibus for me. I received the eBook for free in exchange for my honest review.
Mind Dimensions is a freaky series to me. So far I've only been able to get through 13% needing breaks between reading. It reminds me a lot of the cross-genre themes of dreams I've had over the years. With that intensity it makes me wonder...Are the authors shifting into my mind?

Workouts & Studies
WEDNESDAY I managed to read chapters 12 & 13 of Motivational Interviewing during lunch. I realized I'm ready for heavier weights to do the 21 Day Fix lower body workout. I've been using 10s. Should I up the weight plates to 15s or 20s?I read chapters 14 & 15.
FRIDAY I did Pilates and read chapter 16. My CPR/AED card arrived in the mail.
SATURDAY I only got to do Dirty 30. The rain held back my gardening plans this weekend. I'm also going to have to weed again.
SUNDAY Austin surprised me with a Mother's Day sign.
MONDAY was time for cardio and chapter 18.
I submitted a press release announcing the launch of the Brand New Me Wellness Coaching Programs. Later I emailed a picture of the CPR/AED card to NETA so they can send my Group Exercise Instructor Certificate. I also ordered Lifestyle Wellness Coaching and the Wellness Coach practice exam since I'm about done with MI.
YESTERDAY I worked my upper body and read Chapter 20.
TODAY I had a yoga session in the morning and walked 1.99 miles during lunch. I would've had more mileage but the two guys in front of me were having issues with the ATM. I picked up some kale and an organic spice mix for meats at the farmer's market.
How is your week going?
