1. When I came back from vacation, I had a few packages waiting for me. One was the fun-filled Bulu Box that I posted about yesterday. The other was a mystery package.
Turns out, it was from General Electric. They contacted me via twitter a few weeks ago and asked if they could send me a gift because they were impressed with my commitment to health. How amazingly kind is that?
They sent me two yoga mats – one for myself and one for a friend. I can’t wait to try these out in my next hot yoga class with my friend Tracy!
2. If you follow me on instagram, you know that I recently found a 16 oz. tub of Chobani’s 2% vanilla chocolate chunk! I was pretty excited (possibly abnormally so).
It is seriously delicious – think slivers of real chocolate blanketed in creamy vanilla yogurt (the name says it all). Quite possibly my favorite flavor yet!
I also made a tasty (and really simple) milkshake featuring this yogurt! It needs a few tweaks and then I’ll post it next week. Get ready for some healthy decadence—the best kind!
3. My most recent snack obsession features another grocery store find (gotta love Target)!
Wholly Guacamole 100 cal snack packs!
I am a HUGE fan of avocados (and guacamole especially). But it’s so hard to keep a big batch of guac fresh and ready to eat! Sure, there are several tricks to keep your guacamole nice and green—but it’s always better when it’s freshly made.
These 100 cal snack packs are always fresh because you eat the whole pack in one sitting! The spicy flavor has just the right amount of kick.
My favorite way to enjoy it? With hard boiled eggs and CrunchMaster crackers!
4. I’m having a tough time getting back into a workout routine this week! Eating clean? No problem. But I keep putting off my workouts and then I end up forgetting about them altogether.
It’s weird because when I have more time on my hands, it’s harder for me to get a workout in. This seems so counterintuitive, but here’s why – when I have a lot of free time in one day, I keep saying oh, I’ll workout later. Let me do this other task first. Then the day flies by and I never get my work out in.
When I have a set schedule, I know that I have to workout at a certain time of the day. So I get it done. Basically, I thrive on a schedule. So I am pretty excited to get back into a busy schedule once school starts up again.
