At Our Pace

        For the past several years, I have been searching for a way to keep up with the grocery list.. you know, that item that everyone talks about, and usually forgets on the trip to the store....or forgets an item that we need from the store because we forgot to write it on the list...

I came across this link while searching for the piriformis stretch.  It's got some great stretches for the runners, and just in general.

Five Fantastic Stretching Exercises

I've been getting together wtih the girls to exercise.  We've been doing some cardio, some belly dance... fun stuff that is getting us moving.  When you haven't moved in ages, besides to the fridge and back, it creates some hurt in the muscles.  I expected this, but one place I didn't expect was my hip. 

"Back Spasm -

A spasm is a spontaneous, abnormal contraction of a muscle. When it occurs in the back near the spinal cord or the nerve roots, it can be very painful."

   AOP is a group with a common purpose.  We support each other and want to see every one of us succeed.  Everyone.  However, I’m going to take this moment to talk specifically about The Girls Team.

How many times have we heard that?  Before beginning any weight loss and/or fitness regimen, check in with your doc.  Yeah, yeah... OK.  Who does that? 

That's right.  I did it.  I made another B movie reference. Take that!

Pan-Fried Panko Coated Tilapia with Brown Rice and Broccoli.

For the fish:

6 Fillets of Tilapia, preferably fresh, although frozen is ok (and what is used here)

1/3 Cup Light or Olive-Oil based Mayo

1/3 Cup Spicy Mustard (or regular brown mustard)

Hot Sauce (in case you used regular mustard)

Panko Bread Crumbs

Old Bay Seasoning (to taste)

Kosher Salt (to taste)

Vegetable Oil for frying, 1 & 1/2 Tablespoon per batch of fish

As with most things in my life, my brain, over packed to the brim with impossibily nerdy things like Star Wars/Trek trivia, a complete working knowledge of WoW (even though I haven't played in a couple of years), and other such things, attaches a Simpsons, Family Guy or Futurama quote to nearly everything I do.  Failing that, I can always fall back on "that's what she said"...and often do.

Yeah, I'm lazy.  Like If lazy were a job, I'd be Donald Trump runnin' the joint.  But with much better hair.  And in lazy lies my problem with losing weight.  They are diametrically opposed.  And that sucks.
