Black Bean Pasta Without the Workout

Black Bean Pasta

I prepared this meal shortly before I was to meet with the trainer tonight at the gym.  Three ingredients (pasta, low sodium black beans and tomato/basil pasta sauce) that blended to make an awesome meal prior to the anticipated die-hard kickboxing workout.  See, today was to be just for kicks (meaning front, side and roundhouse) because my chest has been hurting so jabs, uppercuts and crosses were out of the question.  However my workout was not to be today.  I had a beef with some things that transpired between me and the trainer.  I addressed them and doing so ate up my session.  I hope the air is clear between he and I and I look forward to my next session.  By the way he was cool enough to null that washed session and allow me another opportunity to use it in the coming week.  I appreciate that.  For the record he apologized for some things I felt were out of line.

Although I am a different person now then I was even two to three months ago I still let things fester while trying to work them out and unfortunately when "payday" comes sometimes my communication can be straight to the point.  I don't want to hurt any one's feelings but when it involves customer service and communication I get beside myself.  It's not different in any other environment other than my workplace.

In the end I still love fitness.  I love the gym.  I love working out and it doesn't hurt when I see the yumminess of a nice fit guy.  In reality though I can't mix my fitness with a man.  It just doesn't work.  

 . . . Back to the reason why I am writing this blog . . . I prepared this pasta dish and didn't get to use its energy for my workout so I am somewhat bummed however I have another opportunity tomorrow morning to workout.  I can't wait.  Working out is the highlight of my life right now and if I had a man he would be a close second.  LOL
