I've had the same old breakfast for the last three days so instead, I took a picture of my meals for the day: shrimp 'taco,' Sunwarrior protein, tuna salad spinach, and strawberry-banana Chobani.
While I packed my meals, I also made my breakfast for tomorrow: Power Pumpkin Roll!
It looks amazing and the stats are fantastic. There are ~35 grams of protein in a little more than 366 calories (according to Powercakes).
After a morning of procrastinating, I headed to the gym. I never go to the gyms here at 11 or 12 and realized there are tons of noon-time gym goers. The weight room was packed so I found it difficult to do the circuits for Day 57. I was super nervous but kept telling myself that this isn't my hardest workout - I've survived harder.
I got over being nervous really quickly - dudes don't do a whole lot of high knees in between their sets. I was sweaty, but not overly tired afterwards. I subbed other exercises for jump roping because I didn't have one available.
I got a nice surprise in the mail: my refund check and Love Grown coupons. I split the refund check with my mama and saved my coupons because they aren't carried here or L.A. or San Diego?!
After work, I stopped by TJ Maxx and saw Love Grown! I grabbed 4 more bags. I had to hoard. I dug into the only one I hadn't tried, apple walnut delight. Raisin almond is still my favorite though!
I had to stop on by America's Cup Yogurt for a teeny bit of yogurt since it was RIGHT THERE.
And went into Movie Q next door. I rented "Beauty & the Briefcase" even though I already got "The Descendants" from the Redbox. Good thing I'm off tomorrow.
I just finished watching "Beauty & the Briefcase" and enjoyed it. Oh, ABC Family, you guys do good. Except the silly ending where they profess their love for one another.
And I will profess my love for Matt Dallas.
Questions for you:
Is pumpkin a vegetable?
What has been your hardest workout?
Do you ever get a teeny bit of dessert like this?
What do you hoard?
That pumpkin roll looks amazing. What is it made of?
ReplyDeleteThe roll is 5 egg whites, flax, 1/4 c oats, & 1/2 c pumpkin. The filling is Greek yogurt & chia seeds. I got the recipe here: http://powercakes.blogspot.com/2012/01/powerpumpkin-roll.html
DeleteBy the way, I'm eating it for breakfast right now and it's sooo good.
That LiveFit Workout looks intense, but that is what it is all about right!? I think I need to get on the LiveFit train! Do you follow the nutrition plan?
ReplyDeleteI already eat healthy. I did switch to eating breakfast (egg whites and lots of them) before working out and a protein shake immediately after. I concentrated more on protein and ate less carbs at night. I also ate less fruit and more veggies. I took a lot from the plan.
DeleteIt wasn't too bad. Today begins sprints. I've never been much of a runner, but I got into it in Phase 2 of the program.
i just love how nice and cakey the pumpkin protein roll looks! i definitely need to make this asap!
ReplyDeleteI made it last night so I could take a picture of it and honestly, it's amazingly good!
DeleteEverything looks so yummy!!!
ReplyDeleteStopping by from WIAW!!
The pumpkin roll looks so good, I am totally checking that out in just a moment! I have a confession....I have yet to try love grown granola! I can't believe it!! I keep saying I am going to buy some, but I always end up just making my own.
ReplyDeleteI've never made my own granola, or at least I've never succeeded. Do you have a good recipe or tricks of the trade. Love Grown is awesome by the way.
DeleteThe pumpkin roll sounds awesome! Can't wait to try the recipe!
ReplyDeleteOMG. I love ABC Family and all their cheesy movies! LOL. =D
ReplyDeleteTHe pumpkin roll looks delicious!
I saw that you watched "21 Jump Street." Everyone went to see it before I could and loved it. :( Any other ABC Family movie suggestions?
DeleteThat pumpkin roll looks (and sounds) great! I constitute pumpkin as a fruit since it has seeds and is slightly sweet^^
ReplyDeleteIt's like squash right, and isn't that a vegetable?
DeleteP.S. Wikipedia says it's a fruit!
