I’ve decided to take Saturdays off from blogging/social networking. It’s a busy day for me with the boy’s tball games and I like to enjoy the day with my family without worrying about my blog, Twitter, and Facebook. As much as I love being online, I think it’s good to unplug and focus on what is most important :-)
But since, it’s Sunday – I’ve plugged back in. lol. Yesterday wasn’t too bad of a day. I enjoyed sleeping in. I tried out Kale Chips for the first time. Yum!! And Ben liked them too so I will definitely be making more :-) I also prepped a kale salad using the salad dressing from Karena’s recipe. I would have loved to make the exact one they have on their blog but I didn’t have all the ingredients. I put in what I had and I’m looking forward to having it for dinner tonight.
1st Time making Kale Chips - success!
Salad prepped for Sunday dinner: Kale, carrots, tomatoes, kidney beans, and black beans.
Workouts:
Mad Abs March Day 24 – 37 pushups!! Yikes! I’m actually sore from it today.
Went for a 4 mile run.
Easy pace for my run.
Can you tell that I got rained on?
Ben and the boys at the spa while it rained.
Tone It Up’s Self Magazine Drop10 Toning Workout – used 5lb. weights and a 10lb.Kettlebell. I was going to use my usual 6lb. medicine ball but Gio convinced me to use the heavier kettle bell for a challenge.
Turbo Fire Day 48 – Fire45 is more like a dance party to me than a workout. This has the Best music and is so much fun!! I’m always singing “Boom I Got Your Boyfriend” for the rest of the day :-) I really wish I could get the soundtrack to these workouts to have on my iPhone. I’d probably bust out doing the moves when I hear it.
2 min plank – 30 second on hands, 30 second each side, 30 seconds on hands. I really didn’t feel like doing it but I made myself. Doing these PlankADays has really helped my core and if I skip more than one day, I’ll keep on skipping. Gotta stay on top of it.
Meals:
M1 – Mini Luna bar. Needed to put something in my stomach since I slept in.
M2 – 2 Buckwheat Banana Pancakes with Maple Syrup and 4 Apple Chicken Sausages.
Smile :-)
When I'm craving syrup for my pancakes I turn to TJ's Organic Maple Syrup.
M3 – Left over Trader Joe’s Turkey Chili with Beans on top of Brown Rice with spinach added in.
Warmed up the Brown rice and Chili, added spinach and mixed. The heat softened the spinach up.
M4 – Peanut and Dark Chocolate Kind Bar.
M5 – Quinoa with Turkey and Spinach Red Sauce
60 o.z of water and 1 Zico.
