Ever noticed how most people are just generally happier on Friday?  Even when you know there is a banging busy work day ahead, it’s still better than the four days before it.  Maybe it’s because some of us get to wear jeans on Friday.

Speaking of jeans, I’ve learned a very valuable lesson this year.  I bet I’ve purchased 10-15 pair of jeans over the last two years, attempting to find just the right fit without paying too much.  Ironically, if I had spent the extra money and had someone who actually knew what they were doing and knew their product I would have had a couple of pair of jeans that I love instead of 10 that I only wore once.  Lesson here?  Two kick butt pair of more expensive jeans will make you happier than 10 pair that you never wear. One for flats and one for heels!

After running too late this morning to make my CrossFit class I ended up in the gym doing a back and bicep workout.  I was elated that after this many days in to the cleanse experiment, my strength is only getting better.  My lifts were strong this morning and it just reaffirms that every now and again changing things up is just what the trainer ordered!

I’m down to my last shake day and then tomorrow and Sunday are the last two cleanse days.  I will be posting all of my results in detail Monday in my post.  Yes, it will be hard but I’ve already done it once there is no reason to not finish what I started.

Update on the college kids in training.  Yesterday they actually beat me through 10 rounds for time of 10 push-press and 10 kettlebell swings. GO KIDS!  One caveat though, my loads were heavier than theirs so Mom can still beat you. 

Note to Self: Increase loads for the kids next time.
