your new body by summer…

Share

in the city there are many workout options. there are Pilate centers, yoga centers, gyms almost on ever other block, boot camps for all sorts of different things, liposuction centers…you name you got it. out here we have to do things a little differently. first off you have to deal with land, the mowing alone is upper and lower body strengthening, add a 20 pound kid on your back and viola! added calorie burner. second, see that pipe? it’s an irrigation pipe, yup that’s my pipe, and that pipe doesnt move itself. once again you guys do squats, i move pipe. third, yes those goats, here’s your cardio, (and incidentally anger management put into action). most likely those…goats (demons if you will) will get out at least once A DAY, the chasing and cornering and then dancing around back and forth to capture the…goat, will totally give you an all over workout and cardio, you couldn’t pay any instructor to replicate. and lastly, ( i didn’t have time to go out and take a picture of the town) if you don’t buy everything you need at the store by 7pm you will be out of luck till the next morning. (i would say that about 7:02 the main street in town looks like a ghost town, no cars on the road, and no one to be seen. (everyone dealing with household duties and maybe moving some pipe for the last time of the day) so i’ve learned i don’t buy any snacks that are super tantalizing to my taste buds (usually anything with a hint of chocolate in it) and when oh say 8:30 rolls around you are out of luck for any temptations that will add pounds to the thighs…i admit a little aggravating, but soo worth it if you want to get your beach or pool body ready by summer.
here’s a recipe for the best salsa ever!!!
20 roma tomatoes
1 bunch of each: green onions, and cilantro
2 green peppers (seeded out)
1 jalapeno (or 2 depending on the size)
2 salsa mixes (1 hot, one mild) you can find these packets in the veggi section usually
1 sweet vidalia onion
garlic salt and lemon pepper to taste
4 avocados (with lemon juice over them so they don’t brown)
cut everything in the food processor, but make sure you do the cilantro by itself or it wont cut up small enough.
happy work out and salsa eating!
oh yeah and i forgot to mention, this recipe makes a ton of salsa, so if you make some just call me and i’ll bring the tortilla chips! (and the diet dr pepper)
