It was really hard to wake up this morning for some reason. But I did it and, against some of my good senses, did Level 2 and Level 3 of the 30 Day Shred. Whew. What a fabulous 36-minute workout. Loved it and it totally got me energized for the day. After a shower, it [...]

Finally Got It In

I decided this afternoon that it was too damn hot to do my workout outside tonight. We’re talking 110*, heat advisories, etc. I had a long day and wanted to head indoors for a workout instead. So after debating a few options, I decided to go home, change, and bike to the gym where I [...]
More Mugs

What’s in my mug today? (I can see almond butter on top.) Oatmeal! The cup is filled with oats (cooked in water and skim on the stovetop with half a banana mashed in) and topped with blueberries, flax, and obviously almond butter. Yum! And in case you don’t believe there are oats under there… Mmm. [...]

More of Jillian’s 30 Day Shred this morning! I like Level 3, but that third strength training circuit is killer…going from the walking push-ups to the plank rows with a leg raise is hard! Check the sequence out in the first minute of this YouTube clip. And as for breakfast… Now there can’t be coffee [...]
Strange Cravings

Normally in the summer I don’t eat too much hot oatmeal for breakfast. After I’ve worked out or showered, it usually isn’t too appealing. But today for some reason it was! I woke up and had my fill of Jillian Michaels with the 30 Day Shred—I better keep at it this week because my monthly [...]

Last night was probably one of my top five best sleeps ever. Even though it meant I overslept by 40 minutes and didn’t get to workout this morning as planned. Instead, I rolled out of bed and created this: I love that peanut butter-apple-toast combo. It sure tasted good this morning. So did my strawberries [...]

My lazy Sunday ended after a couple of hours when I faced Jillian Michaels and her 30 Day Shred. Today I did Level 2, which I really like, particularly the creativity of the strength moves. Of course, it went by fast and soon I was done with the strength training of the day! Yoga will [...]
What Could It Be?

(Don’t forget to check out that giveaway!) I’m always a little sad because my green smoothies never end up being green due to the berries that I add to the mix. Today, my smoothie was positively brown. I poured it into a coffee cup for fun and it looked exactly like coffee. However, I could [...]

I had quite the active morning today: I woke up and rode my bike to a yoga class. It’s called “Power Hour” and was basically a vinaysa power flow class. It was awesome! It’s not officially hot yoga (aka Bikram), but the room was heated to about 90-93* so I was definitely pretty sweaty in [...]
