Leisurely Sunday

My day started out with an awesome new breakfast creation...  'Frenched' Strawberry and Cream Cheese Sandwiches.   They were sooo good.



An hour long walk to town followed, where I was lucky enough to find strawberries still on sale and today, spinach too.  Of course that was lunch!



I did the same upper body workout with my 5-lb dumbbells, that I put together last week, and then followed that with my new plank routine.  Again, could only do 2 sets.  I am really struggling with side planks. 

Should I just forget them?  Are they worthwhile?  I must be doing them incorrectly cause I don't feel anything in my abs, but more in the upper body.  I am going to find some illustrations somewhere.

I spent the rest of the afternoon 'playing beads'... put together a couple of stretchy bracelets...




and another one, beads strung on wire, using one of my earned WW charms.

  1. That frenched sandwich looks so yummY! Nice job with the bracelets, I like them! Not sure what to tell you about the planks, hmmm are you making sure to hold your core in a strait line and keeping it tight? You will feel it some in you upper body too.

  5. I love the bracelets! Also I must try the frenched sandwiches! sounds so delicious! Good luck with the planks...I am SO terrible at them and they hurt my shoulders more than anything so I am usually a baby about them. I do wish I could be better at them though! have a fabulous night!
