Time is seriously FLYING. Is it just me? I could have sworn I just finished school for winter break.
Christmas went so fast I can barely remember it (exaggeration). And now I’m packing up my life to move back to Orlando.
Why hello there disaster of a closet.
I loathe packing. My idea of packing = throw all my stuff into the least amount of boxes and bags I can find. Not neatly, might I add. Now that would just be crazy.
I’m still not too close, but I’m getting there. S l o w l y as possible………… Procrastination is my middle name.
Breakfast/Lunch
Too much sugar talk this morning, I didn’t get to cover breakfast.
Before the gym, I had one of my little protein bars that I whipped up and shared with you all yesterday.
I did 30 minutes on the elliptical, and the same Circuit Workout as the other day. Except I switch out the supermen for some donkey kicks and side leg raises because my low back was sore.
Any day that begins with OIAJ is a good day.
- 1/2 C. Rolled Oats
- 1 C. Water
- 2 tsp. Chia Seeds
- 1/2 Banana
- Splash of almond milk after it was cooked.
Lunch was a simple salad that I was craving.
- 1/2 C. Black Beans
- Veggies leftover from last nights dinner (green beans and squash)
- Mango
- Pineapple
- Almonds
- Cottage Cheese
All of the flavors worked well together.
I had a cup of plain Chobani on the side with pomegranate seeds.
Friday Favorites
I forgot to do it last week, so lets bring it back!
Fitness
Okay, this is a stretch. I couldn’t find a picture of the real thing, so let me explain.
Pretend she’s not doing a tricep stretch and just the legs. Then lean forward and reach your arms out and your head to your knee.
It’s a really great hip opener, which I think is beneficial to everyone because most people have tight hips.
Food
Clementine’s. I am obsessed. They are perfect for a snack, dessert, or to go alongside your meal. They’re so refreshing, healthy, and delicious.
Fashion
Oh yes I did. I couldn’t help it, I saw a coupon online for a free panty if you bought something.
Did I get the FREE panty? NO. I get to the store and they’re out. Boo. But they did have a 7 for $26.
And a clearance section that was screaming at me to look through. I tried to fight it, but we all know who won here.
Of course I got yoga crops and shorts. I live in them.
Music
Breathe – Skrillex
This is actually a remix that I just found and I really like. The original is good too, just a little more plain.
She doesn’t mind – Sean Paul
He was popular when I was in like middle school which is pretty funny. But this is a good workout jam.

You’ll be seeing a lot less of this beautiful face once I move =/
What are you loving this week?
Do you look for sales when you shop or just buy what you like?
Would you rather pack or unpack?

Clementines are the best!! I love that they are so portable. It makes healthy snacking so much easier. I just bought my first pair of victoria’s secret yoga pants the other day. I’m so excited to wear them. They look so comfy!!

Neither can I! So yummy
I am loving the j michaels quote. It’s so true! I think it’s easier to say that others are more deserving and then it just gives people an excuse to not take care of themselves. I do have to remind myself from time to time that I am worth the effort to take the extra time to workout, get ready for a “regular day” or make myself an extra special dinner if I’m alone. It’s something that I’m always striving to balance.
