Dinner Gone Wrong

A Healthy dinner Gone Wrong...

While i was cooking my dinner...

(Chicken breast, stewed tomatoes, broccoli and zucchini)

I took it out of the oven to check if the chicken was done as I was placing back in the over....

No!!!, Ahhhh!!!

Slipped right out of my hands on the bottom of the oven!!

Good thing my roommate Amber placed foil on the bottom a few weeks ago!!

Easy Clean Up, After the Oven Cooled of Course!

Inspired

Well I was inspired by my friend Amanda V. she started a blog about here recent healthy changes in her life. So I felt to do the same. This last week I went to the gym 3X Tuesday-shoulders & triceps, Thursday-back & biceps, and Saturday-legs.Also did abs each day too! Also one 25 minute cardio work on the stationary bike.

Before I get grief and you say way do you have to go to the gym and eat healthy your so skinny. I want everyone to know lean people need to be healthy too! When I signed up for the gym they did a total body analysis and I found out that my lean mass is way under what it is suppose to be. I have also been doing research on my body type I am ruler and/or Ectomorph and Mesomorph Type.
