It has been quite a week! I have
found myself tired again, but                                                          Proudly Serving Airdrie, Cochrane

                                                                                             & Rocky View County
the energy for my workouts.
Thank goodness I feel great after or I’m sure I would
skip the odd one. This week I decided to try a salad
from Extreme Pita. I had a garden salad with grilled
chicken. It was very good and satisfied my hunger.
My family also enjoys the opportunity to eat out at
Extreme Pita.
The workouts are, at times, difficult on my body, but
I have been to the chiropractor a few times and have
had a massage.
I am looking forward to the next 8 weeks!
