The evening began with a delicious dinner and ended with my version of hell. Earlier in the day I discovered a recipe for brussel sprout pasta using won ton wrappers so of course I had to share the link with my fun-employed boyfriend turned personal chef, Nick. In true Nick fashion, he then took ingredients we already had and made his delicious rendition using zucchini instead of brussel sprouts. Amazing!

Then I decided to try a 15 minute workout I found on Pinterest. You do 5 minutes of cardio moves followed by 4 minutes of other moves and so on. The whole thing ends with a one minute plank. I slowly huffed and puffed my way through before ending with a 30 second plank and a warning that I might throw up Nick's culinary genius. So far, I've managed to keep my food down but I'm still feeling shaky 30 minutes, a hot shower, and a lot of water later. Moral of the story: I am WAY out of shape, but that workout designed will definitely keep me motivated to eat healthy because if I don't, I've found the perfect punishment.
