A Life Lesson from Yogi Tea!!

How we all doing on this lovely Hump Day? Boy, is it getting frigid outside! I have to say its pretty sweet that my car has an automatic starter...and by that I mean it would be sweeter if I knew how to properly use it! I used it this morning and I think it just turns the car on, but it was certainly not warm inside at all! I want some heat in there!!...I did put on the seat warmers which toasted me right up----ahhh the little things in life right??

Good thing I had this big bowl of love to wake up to!

ughh I am having serious camera Issues, I need to play around with it a bit to get some good foodie pics!

1/2 C oats, 1/2 nanner, blueberries, strawberries, chia, cinnamon, truvia packet...is it sad that I don't think i could EVER get sick of this breakfast?

with a side of this crunchy deliciousness of some PB

*are you a smooth or crunchy type of person??* I am WAY crunchy!!

I got this on my way to work. I am usually not a Starbuck's lover at all, but I just needed a quick fix and this was on my way! I got a tall half caf, half decaf because I already had some RIGHT when I got up and I didn't want to over-do it on the caffeine! I sprinkled some cinnamon on top and had a packet of Truvia in there! it was good!

Lunch Time

I had bought the Arnold thins about a week ago and hadn't had a chance to try them yet. I knew today was an Arnold thin sammie day!! these thins have 100 calories, 5g fiber, 21 carbs, cholesterol free, and no corn syrup...sawwweeettt BRING IT ON ARNOLD!!

I packed up all my ingredients and was going to be assembling at work

1 arnold thin, 3 oz turkey breast, lettuce, tomatoes, red onion, garlic and herb laughing cow

I pack my lunch in this Lululemon Bag! I love their recyclable Bags!!

Motivation for the day from Lulu!!

And the Sammie in all its greatness

holy yum! This was so good! the Arnold thin was crispy (I toasted it) and nutty tasting (it was the multigrain type) Definitely a keeper!

I also had some of these guys dipped into this stuff

Snap peas in Classic Yellow

mmmm, i sometimes forget how good the classic yellow is!!

Workin' it

I had a great workout today! I took it easy on the cardio today because I have my Spin class tomorrow and I also need to save myself for this Saturday because I will be getting SPIN CERTIFIED!!! it is an all day event, 10:30 am- 7:30 pm...but after this Jam packed day, I will be ready to teach my own class!!

I did want to however, try out my new running shoes, so I started with 2 miles on the treadmill. I went for enjoyment today, not speed, but I was chugging right along listening to some great new tunes "Tik Tok" (forgot the name of the artist!!) "hell of a life" by T.I and the new Britney Spears "Three" OBSESSEDDDD

Then I set myself up a little circuit-2x around, 60 sec each station

lateral raises on flat side of bosu ball
45 degree backward lunges holding 8lb medicine ball
lateral lunges w/ frontward lunges
Rear delt raise
Woodchoppers with 8 lb medicine ball
3 point tricep kickback standing on flat side of bosu ball
Jump Squats/1 min wall sit
I repeated this circuit 2 times at 60 seconds each station and then ended with 10 minutes on the spin bike

I chowed down on the most amazing snack!
