Buttermilk Pepper Jack Biscuits

Another recipe from Barefoot Contessa. Recipe calls for cheddar cheese, but I used pepper jack. Light and fluffy biscuit!

Buttermilk and baking powder make for a good treat!

1 Month Away!

It's exactly 4 more weeks until my competition! Every day I have to push myself that much harder to place 1st, but I will do it.

It's been a production morning. Lou had to open the club this morning, so he had to get up at 3:30am. I've been awake since 4am. Unable to go back to bed, I did some laundry and ironed clothes. It's almost breakfast, and boy let me tell you...I am looking forward to a slice of toast with my eggs.

Killer Orange Buttermilk Pancakes & Fruit Salad

Busy Wednesday

Started my day with a good 45 minute cardio session on the bike. Walked, played with the doggies, and ate breakfast. Headed to the gym, had a good back and bi lift. Added an extra 15 minutes of running. Worked and then came home. Mowed the lawn, cleaned house, and made Louie my orange buttermilk pancakes with a delicious fruit salad. Feeling pretty good, a little tired. Heading to bed soon - looking forward to another day closer to my competition.

Diet Adventure #4

Keeping my fats around 15g per day, and consuming all my carbs & fats in the first half of the day.

This should be a shock to my body. I am weighing in about 101lbs, with hopes to lose about another 5-6lbs of fat before competition. I have 1 month and 2 days before my competition... I am so close!

Every levels are a bit low this afternoon. Looking forward to tomorrow's breakfast!
