TT W18D2: Maggie Gets Crowned

Pink Dumbbells Get Out Challenge Report: No outdoor time for me yesterday, but I’ll be walking during lunch and maybe eating outside, too. :) Does eating count as fun if I make little mountains out of my chicken and veggies?

:P

I had an early dental appointment this morning to have the new bling-bling gold crown I was fitted for two weeks ago cemented on my back molar, so I had to hit the gym with all of my meals and a change of clothes already packed. I was supposed to do TT weights and personal training, but I only had time for my final personal training session with Ashlee since I had to shower and get to the dentist. :( I am going to swap out two workouts and do YF flex tonight for an hour (that should give me 30 minutes of cardio warm up and 30 minutes of no impact bendiness training) and do a full TT weights/core/interval workout tomorrow morning instead.

Chris is actually going to be away on business for the next two days, so I am stuck with a fridge literally stuffed full of cooked chicken entrees (sesame ginger chicken from Quick Time Meals plus a pound of chicken that I stir fried with miscellaneous veggies last night) that I will have to polish off myself unless I throw some of them in the freezer. That’s why you will be seeing quite a few chicken meals in my menu for the next 2-3 days, LOL.

And speaking of chicken and dentists…Yesterday when I was eating my chicken, veggies, and pear for lunch, I heard a small crunch/crack from one of my right upper molars.

Egads, I have managed to crack ANOTHER porcelain crown on the same side.

I’ll be going right back to the dentist next Monday to have another set of impressions taken.

Sigh.
