Weather still playing blah games but I went outside and did my walk and ran a few errands. Fighting with an earache so going to rest a bit and veg in front of the television. Had a nice talk with my friend Larissa today and I am thankful for people that keep it professional but still manage to be friends when your not doing business!

Day 10 of fast! I am starting to feel stable again. It is taking a little longer then I wish but it is what it is.
Mornings are my best and though the AM. has always been my strongest time I find I am more clear in my thoughts. I also find that I am not in rush mode anymore which makes the beginning of the day less stressful. I am thankful for the ability to stick to things I set my mind to. 
Starting to incorporate HIIT and Yoga

Walk into the city today to pick up some oils.  The weather is quite pleasant for this time of year..fingers crossed it stays that way. I felt quite a bit of energy when i woke up this morning. Energy burst lasted till 1pm and then I layed down for a little. Its getting better and I feel good inside. 


CO-LO


Coconut oil is composed of a group of unique fat molecules known as medium-chain fatty acids (MCFA). Although they are technically classified as saturated fats, this fat can actually protect you from getting a heart attack or suffering a stroke.

Good for stopping heartburn too!



Don't tell me the sky's the limit when there are foosteps on the moon.

working on something interesting for music and my site

COCO LOCO

Fact

Coconuts are good fuel for the body, but did you know that it’s also a planet-friendly fuel for machinery? Biodiesel has been making the rounds as a fossil fuel alternative, and coconut trees happen to be one of the plants that can produce oilin workable quantities. Not only that, but coconuts can perform multiple roles: as a base substance, an additive, or a direct substitute for petroleum diesel.

Challenge Day 10




WORKOUT

BACK ON POINTE MORNING ROUTINE
SQUAT AND PLANK CHALLENGE
STEPS SO FAR = 13,586
Apples = 2


Running around like a chicken with her head cut off through the masses
that crowd the streets of Nürnberg this time of year.
Christmas market is on its last leg and for many christmas begins
tomorrow.  I literally was pushing myself through at the checkouts ready to deck 
anyone that  came too close. The holiday hustle and bustle is not fun anymore.




Feeling quite good heading into this week. I am also starting to take this coconut challenge more seriously. I AM AMAZED at the myriad of benefits this oil has. I will continue using it for more anything I can.  

I have replaced all lotions and am only using oil ( that includes my face cream)

Coconut oil is the only product I will use for my hair

I started Oil Pullling ( more on that tomorrow)

I will take in 2 teaspoons of coconut oil a day.

I put a spoonful of the oil in my tea every morning

I am cooking with only..... you guessed it .. this oil.


I will write about a variety of other uses in the blogs to come through January.
