Ive had a great weekend so far!
Went out Friday night, started at mine with glögg and wine and great company. We went out to Tegelbruket and had a great time (me especially)
Saturday I was very very tired and a ehm tad bit hungover, drove Alicia to the airport and saw her off., fell asleep in front of the tv when I got back. woke up a tad bit disoriented but managed to make a salad and head off to mum. We had a great dinner! Tasty!!! I had way to much food lol but couldnt resist the vanilj visp (like fluffy vanilla fluff haha yum!) then I went home, sort of ;)
This morning I got company on my walk, pretty with the snowflakes falling although the snow is slowly melting, its 3 degrees outside... We are going to see my friend that has her 30th birthday today! Love her she is such a great person!!!
My training and "diet" was the question.
I walk most mornings, not power walking just to get out a bit and get some fresh air. Maybe burn a 100-150 calories per walk, gym 4 days a week for about 45-60 minutes. Thats it!
Diet, I use the excel sheet that I linked before and try to keep my caloric budget, sometimes I dont like yesterday but in the long run it doesnt matter. I keep my protein fairly high, like 2,5-4g per kg bodyweight. I have my fats at least 1g per kg bodyweight but I eat what I want. Like right now I eat a lot of cheesecake.
When your eating at maintenance the quality of the protein isnt as important, not that I think the cheesecake is low quality...
A typical day (right now as Im not eating as per IF ing right now, planeflight stuffed it up and my life at the moment is a bit unorganized) I eat a big breakky of 150-200g of salmon on bread, massive cup of tea. Thats about 650calories. then Im full for most of the day, I might have some cottage cheese (240kcal), If Im off to the gym I have my pre workout shakes and post workout shakes (110cal), super pump or rage with aminos and after only aminos. After gym I have a wok of chicken and vegetables with sweet and sour sauce, with hardbread (yes cinnamon flavoured yumminess) about 600 cal and finish the day off with a cheesecake 400kcal, Thats about 2000 kcal give or take and about 210g of protein with 80g fat and 135g of carbs. I change the food depening on what I fancy but its nothing special and I certainly dont eat every 3 hours. I eat when Im hungry and I eat bigger meals to keep me full. I hope that helps Kate, let me know if not x

snaps from the gym today (opti light and not so opti camera) yes I was alone lol

:) at the kickoff there will be 2 days of snow boarding, the location is Kitzbühel!! In Österreich :p not what I wrote before... LOL

Me and Alicia went to Skansen today!

Then we went to Old Town and the castle

 

I crammed in gym this morning at 8 and it felt good, very quiet and I had a great back session. I tried rage for the first time and it was okay, got a bit of energy, didnt taste much but went down ;)
Tomorrow i'm going to pick my passport up (only ordered it yesterday and its done already!) relax and I think Alicia is going

It feels great not having to worry about work anymore! Such a big relief! The 18th of March there is a kickoff at a skii resort close to Munchen! Im sooo excitetd, Ill sort my passport out today and then I think we will be heading into the city to do the old town and maybe the castle, depending on open hours.

Got a new delivery!!! YAY!!! 2 free shakers, 1 free tshirt, free caffeine :D
I ordered 3 different flavored whey (mint choc, vanilla and banana choc) One tub of rage (pre workout) and aminos!!!
Just tried the  mint choc with cottage cheese and WOW!!!!!!!!!! YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!

Im sorry Im not updating, been a bit to do :)
Saturday, ice cold, train to the city and froze my ass of haha but had a great dinner and wine and company! Took a cab home :P
Sunday :P Ill keep you posted but spent time with someone great!
Yesterday I went into the last meeting and I think this is the company I will choose. Everyone is lovely but its not a 100% consulting company, they sell more solutions to companies, rather than consulting, although there are consulting as well.
Im going in there today to sign the papers, starting 8th of March! Training has been going good! Im heading there today to do legs.
Alichia is coming tonight and are staying for 3-4 days and there will be lots of sightseeing and loads of shopping!

Happy sunday! We have had a lot of snow coming down this weekend and its absolutely stunning! (yeah okay I do look slightly insane lol but at -15 after 2 hours in the snow your allowed to haha) Funniest thing happened, I was walking on the lake and in a distance I saw a person and their golden retriever, very happy dog! I could see it wanting to come up and say hi, after a while as I was getting closer the dog runs into the snow and bam faceplant (well body plant rather) LOL

 

  

  

  

Not so sure I wanna jump in hahahaha but its just to funny

Friday I painted the kitchen, the roof and the walls, beautiful! Looks great, it doesn't really come up in the photos so I wont post any, cause the walls are white, but looks so much cleaner and nicer!!

So I have decided that there are 2 companies that I like and that I will make a decision between, based on how it goes on Monday. The first company gave me a great offer and Im inclined to accept! But Im going to hold my horses, decline all other interviews or offers and focus on these two. It feels great!!
I felt iffy this morning but that disappeared after I went to the city but I think its a lingering cold thats making me feel a bit off that mixed with running around on meetings and being butt cold and not sleeping properly, so it feels pretty good to just relax and paint the kitchen tomorrow!! (yes I get help and its not very big so not a tough job)
Trained today, back and bi and that went surprisingly well, took about an hour or so.
Its funny to meet people at the gym that I recognize but cant put a name to since Im not sure if I recognize them because they have been around or if I actually know them LOL I can see that they recognize me to but probably have the same thoughts, that and me not being blond might be confusing lol
I managed to get some dinkel flour to try to make a pie but when I came home I realized I dont have a pie form LOL so a morel (murkel) omelet will be the go instead :) x for now

had a massive day yesterday, 3 interviews and all went really great, very stressing when you have an offer 2 that are really interested and 1 that offers you a great opportunity but that can potentially go really wrong. So Ive decided to see one lady today and take home her offer over the weekend and then meet company 2 Monday morning and revise their offer and then make a decision, company 3 is calling on Friday and I will give that some thought over the weekend to. Even missed to jump off the train at my station (looking at it, going I recognize this place) whilst talking to one of the work ladies.
Went to the gym and did quads and calfs, of course one workguy called and made me an offer at the end of the session and that really took my focus of training. Well... had a great session anyway and today will be very quiet, Im going in to meet company 1 at 2 then gym. Ive just gotten up and decided to not take a walk and just do my washing and making a list over what I want from work.
I have a neighbor, a guy I know from ages back and he is coming over to help me paint my kitchen tomorrow! How good is that :D
Like my new hairstyle LOL

I crashed at 7 last night (while the neighbour was putting nails in the bedroom wall) so pretty tired. Got a job offer that sounds fantastic, the only problem is that I have other jobs that seems very interesting, although no offer yet (3 interviews today) and one of those are a step 2 interview as a inhouse programmer and that seems great to. Ill wait and see how I feel tonight after that one and then hopefully (but probably not) Ill feel better.
No gym, didn't really feel good, woosy, probably because I was tired cause I feel great today!
Ive also discovered a great little treat (well yes did have it for breakky just then :P) cheescake from Frödinge! Its very good! And have little bits of something, I think its almonds (hehe) in it that make it taste fantastic. Just add a little bit of jam and WOW!!!!!!! Its even great cold (normally served warm)
Well off to an interview now (actually its at Ericsson, dads division - dad didnt get it for tho) then the programming one and a consultant position. After that gym, legs! and more cheese cake haha

What a weekend!
We went to an Italian restaurant on Friday, I had a gorgeous seafood (with lobster) stew! YUM! It was freezing outside, inside was good tho, very cosy little restaurant and excellent company. After dinner we decided head towards the city and find us a little nice club. Well remember that I havent been out in city for 6.5 years, Lollo has just had a baby and Annelie couldn't remember when she was out last... It was so cold so we ended up stopping at a little Irish pub for some drinks then wandered off, Hard rock had a lineup that was insane and we ended up at a little club that was full of 40+ year old ladies that was rocking hard, to tunes from 1995-2000 lol. We did have a great time tho! Lollo went home and me and Annelie went back to my place, she lives quite far away so she slept at mine. We had the intention of heading to Tegel (the local täby club) but ended up in my kitchen, drinking tea and eating cinnamon bread. When we woke up we both felt a bit tired but great! Not really hungover, just a tad bit. We had a 2 hour giggle breakky then my tv came (weeeeoooo) Its big and beautiful!!!
Later on that day me and dad went to Ikea, I returned some chairs, complement shopped and so did he. In and out on 1.5 hours, pretty good!! Now I dont have to go there again.... for a while... phew...
We had decided to celebrate dad that day and my brother and sister and her bf came over to dads and we had the best dinner! Soo delish!! My sis got me drunk tho haha I thought I felt a bit tipsy, but since I only had been drinking the one glass of wine, how could I be?
Until I realised that the winebottle was empty and that my sis had been refilling my glas when I took photos (suuuper sneaky lol) then I had to have some baileys and disaronno... mmmm so I ended up pretty drunk haha ah well... It was a great night tho, lots of laughs and great talks, I have been pretty nervous about the interviews but after a long talk with my bro I feel 200% better!
My sisters bf drove us home then I put the furniture together, banged my chin (Ikea should have a warning, dont do this tipsy at 2 am) but I dindt get a bruise :p
My Sofie ;) and her charming little guy Charlie came over on a valentines day Sunday morning (late morning) and we had a long chat and loads of coffee, perfect for a Sunday! We all where a bit tired as they when to a 40th the night before. Sofie gave me the perfect present ever! Shower creme and Body butter from Body Shop, OMG!!!!!! smells soo nice! Its so thick and creamy, I have not had the time to go get some skincare products yet, Im soo dry, even my toenails have been crackling and my legs have something that looks like white frost on them (dryness)...
My sister picked me up around 14 and we went long distance ice skating, great fun and not a lot of people but myyyyy I certainly felt my butt... haha At home I was starving, cold and tired... I had a long shower, fixed my legs and covered myself in bodybutter (yes maybe twice) had a humoungous dinner and fell asleep on the couch in front of my tv!

Great weened :) Slept in till 8 this morning and now Im doing some washing, heading into the city in a few hours to have an interview (a second on HiQ) and then to the gym! It shall be a calm day today, Im going to get a cable from the laptop to the tv to use it as a dvd player too.
Some pictures from the weekend
Yummy dinner

The WWWWWWWWWWine

mmmm murke sauce

creme brulee in the making

you know its cold when the trees have frost on them

Good day to you all! Today was a relatively quiet day and I met my bank woman, we chatted a bit about this and that then I went back to the apartment, felt a bit funny, fell asleep on the couch, felt really iffy after that and thought that gym would be a bad idea.. but I went anyway, needed the tag. Missed the time and had to wait for Peter to come open the door at 6 so I went back to the shops and got a blender (its a bit small but oh so pretty) I have the tea kettle and the coffee machine in the same style. Love it! And it was on sale!
I went to a tea shop as well and got a small latte to sip on until 6. I finally!!!!!!!! got my key and now I can train as I want.
Did legs, at least I could do my squats and had a fairly good session, took it a bit easy as Ive got a cold coming on... Not sure if its a proper one or if its from the flight... keep forgetting that Ive only been back for a week...
Tomorrow is dinner and drinks with Annelie, Linda and hopefully Louise!!! Soo looking forward to it! (oh yeah, another interview Friday morning) Then my 46 inch tv comes Saturday morning (they better carry it themselves, I shall be on the couch hung over) then off to Ikea and buy the bits and pieces I forgot last time... after that its dinner at dads with siblings and Sunday My Sofi is coming over!!! YIPEEE!!! and there will be Ice skating with dad and possibly my sister!

Im kicking myself at the moment. I managed to cheese-slice (osthyvla) my hand yesterday and squirted blood everywhere and OOOOU it bloody hurts too and still does! I did it around 10.30, and no band aids at all no car and nothing close open! Frustrated I made a white blob of my hand with paper towels and went to bed and of course I ripped it open again this morning... cant do anything with my right hand... so legs today will be ehm interesting.... I CANNOT BELIEVE HOW CLUMSY I AM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On a happier note I got to say hello to 3 gorgeous horses this morning (must buy carrots for next time) the breed is called fjording ie fjord horse hehehehe sooo adorable!!

My AWESOME apartment! I still have a fair bit to do, TV arrives on Saturday, painting the week after and lounge table will be bought this Saturday as well! I'm repainting the kitchen and all the door lists.

Sittin pretty in the kitchen waiting for the right time to go to the train to head into the gym and get a beepin beep key to the gym so I can go early tomorrow :D
Ive met my girls today over coffee and a chat and aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah its sooo good! They are such great girls, I dont know what I wouldnt have been without them!! XXXXXXXXXXXX on  you!!!!!!!

So what has happened since Friday... well a hellavalot lol
Friday I went to mums for a combined birthday and christmas celebration. Me, my sibings, parents and sis bf was there. Mum had made a awesome dinner, roast beef, potato bake and salad. For starter we had toast skagern (shrimp mix) and for desert bluberry pie! YUM! I got a bit tipsy on wine :D

I say no more... yes I do 4 fregging stairs without lift.... phew... and poor dad... his knees really gave him trouble... we did order deliver for most of the stuff but still.. Crashed early Saturday night..
Sunday me and dad went to the apartment at 10 to wait for the stuff and fixed some lights and bits and pieces... we helped the guys carry the stuff up and then put the couch and the bed (that didn't have the bottoms so the mattresses are currently laying on the floor LOL) then I drove dad home and went back to continue...
Monday morning I took a walk and then I went into the city for the first interview, that went great! Well in fact all three interviews went great. I have 2 second interviews and one led to a possible new opportunity (sort of requiting firm)
Ive also been running around doing shopping for basic stuff ontop of this.. and putting together most of my apartments new furniture, ordered a painting and a massive LCD 47inch Samsung! No idea when that arrives but hihihihi happy!!!
Went to the gym yesterday, felt sooo good! Went to the gym today and it was closed, apparently (this my brother forgot to say) I need a beepy electronically thingy key so even tho loaded up on caffein and pre workout drinks I couldnt train... I went back home and ran up and down the stairs instead haha dragging all the trash to the bins... now I have a calm day tomorrow, just meeting up with the girls for a coffee and then relaxing (trying not to do to much on the apartment... WILL BE TRYING promise ;) ) (ill get some pictures of the apartment soon)
