WIAW: Healthier apple chimi cheesecake & epic wall sit

*This is my favorite button so far!

I'm on my $35 food budget starting this week. A big buy was this protein powder. It was on super sale and I couldn't pass it up!

That puts a hamper on the faux apple chimi cheesecake I wanted to re-make today. I'll give you the recipe anyways.

Healthier apple chimi cheesecake

Ingredients

• 1/2-2/3 apple 
• Cinnamon
• 1/3 c. Greek yogurt
• Sugar-free cheesecake pudding mix
• Small tortilla (I used a Sonoma low carb tortilla)
• 1/2 scoop protein powder
• Water

Instructions

1. Chop apple to bite-sized pieces. Place in bowl and sprinkle with cinnamon. Microwave for 2 minutes.

2. While waiting, mix Greek yogurt and pudding mix.

3. Place apple and Greek yogurt mix into tortilla. Fold in thirds (see above).

4. Spray a pan with non-stick spray. Wait for it to sizzle then place the tortilla with filling onto the pan. Then flip. 

Because of my late night at work yesterday, I couldn't wind down and sleep till late. I got 5 1/2 hours of sleep but was determined to go to "athletic training" class.

I got nice and sweaty.

Lots of cardio moves. Wish we incorporated more weights.

Then watched "Bones" at work. *I never/rarely wear makeup. Sorry if that's spooky.

After work tonight, I saw posts about wall sits. Lindsay is hosting a great photo a day challenge.

I'm terrible at photo a day challenges, but I love this one because it has me doing things. Like wall sits. Lindsay did a bit of 3 minutes with a 20 lb weight in her lap.

I went with my two 8 lb weights. Total: 16 pounds.

And ta-da! Not a bad time. My legs even look muscular instead of flabby. Though, truth be told, they are jello on the inside.

Tomorrow we're leaving Operation Beautiful notes.

Win of the week [so far]: yesterday, I said no to pizza and ate an less appetizing garbanzo bean salad, which I had again today.

The pizza, while good, makes me feel crappy. I feel lethargic. I'm not gluten-intolerant, but I am sensitive to foods that are hard to digest.

Try a wall sit. How long can you do yours? I think I can best this time!
Have you had Applebee's apple chimi cheesecake? In the past, I have. They are delicious, but I can remake them on my own without all the sugar and fat.
