LiveFit Update – Day 8!
Still sticking with the Jamie Eason’s 12-Week LiveFit program. So far so good. One thing I’ve noticed is how much better of a workout I’m getting by doing 4 days of muscle groups broken up, as opposed to separate sessions of full-body strength training! Before, when strength training, I just wanted to get it out of the way. I’d find a few moves that could incorporate a couple muscle groups at a time, do a few sets, be done with it, and on to cardio. Now that I’m focusing on two muscle groups a day and working them out until fatigue I can already tell how much it’s improving my strength!
Yesterday was Day 8 – Tricep and Chest – I was still a little sore in my chest from LAST WEEK’s workout! Crazy! I did get through most of the workout but had to skip the last set of chest fly and last exercise, Tricep kickbacks because my form was so bad at that point from my arms being tired.
Vegan Cheese Cookbook
I bought the book, The Ultimate Uncheese Cookbook for my hubby as a surprise Valentine’s Day gift.
We don’t normally exchange V-Day presents, but I saw this and thought he’d really like it. Before he turned Vegan about 2 months ago, his number #1 love of his life was …. CHEESE!!!!!!!! This kid had cheese in the morning with his eggs, cheese at lunch with his Chipotle, cheese at Dinner on his pizza, then a little cheese in between by sticking his hands in the bag of shredded cheese and shoveling piles in his mouth. So, when I say he loved cheese, it is NO JOKE!
This book has tons of recipes that use variations of different things (ie., tofu, cashews, almonds, nutritional yeast, etc., or combination of ingredients) to make a “cheesy” taste in various popular dishes. Perfect for an ex-cheese lover!
These are a few we want to try first!
Cheese Spread / Dip
Faux Feta Cheese
I’m hoping they turn out well! Anyone tried anything from this book before they’d recommend? I read the online reviews and people seemed to like the ones I posted above, plus the “Nacho Cheese”. I’m excited to try it out!
aw you are the sweetest wife! Hahaha happy valentine’s day!!
I feel much stronger too and it’s only been 3 days lol. But I’ve been getting stronger through the weight gain I talked about on my blog. Day four for me tomorrow!!!
