Funday Monday! You know what was awesome about yesterday?!? That even with everything going on - it was a really, really good and fun day! I honestly had a great weekend and a good Monday. I am such a lucky and blessed girl to have such awesome friends and a stellar family!! I'd be lost with out them!! God is good to me to let me have such awesomeness around me :)
Anyways, I started my day with sleeping in since we didn't have school. Then I drove out to Springfield, PA to meet my friend Gina for lunch. She had a beautiful baby girl three months ago (and I forgot to take a picture). I haven't seen her since summer time so it was nice to catch up and meet Gracie! I love babies!
After lunch, I meet my friend Ro for a movie date! We went to see Identify Thief. It was pretty good -- not exactly what I was thinking after the trailer I saw. This one is different and is more what you should expect!
BEASTMODE! |
Yesterday was a HARD WOD. Didn't feel like it should have been, but it was. We started with a clean complex - full, hang, high + a jerk - 3@75% 1RPM, 3@80%1RPM,and 3@85% -- it was HARD haha. Then we moved into Hang Snatch work - 2 snatches EMOTM for 10mins at 60#s. Our Metcon was AMRAP in 15 - 10 KB swings, 10 box jumps & 10 ring dips ( I did box dips). After that I had gymnastics class. We worked on handstand stuff. My shoulder was bugging me so I left a little early. I really need to get that looked at. I went home and made a green smoothie -- two handfuls spinach, banana, frozen berries and almond milk! Also whipped up most of my food for the week....
Chicken - baked on 350 in the oven with butter and also put garlic powder, chili powder, paprika and onion powder!
Mashed cauliflower -- steamed a head of cauliflower till it was super soft. Then put it in my food processor and pulsed it down. Once it looked and had the consistency of mashed potatoes, I added some butter and garlic! They were fabulous today. I want to figure out how to make them thicker/fluffier. Chicken - baked on 350 in the oven with butter and also put garlic powder, chili powder, paprika and onion powder!
Also made a crust less quiche - 2 zucchini, 2 carrots and 12 eggs all mixed up then baked at 375 for about 30 or so minutes till sides are brown. Next time I want to add sausage or some type of meat! YUM!
I didn't get to WOD today. It's raining here so traffic is miserable. I can only do the 6 pm class so that the girls don't have to be in their box all day. I didn't make it over there till 6:30. Whomp Whomp! Going to go for a run hopefully soon. After my sauteed veggies and chicken dinner. And snuggles with my girls :)
PS First two days of #30DayPaleoChallenge are in the books and I've rocked them! Though I want chocolate....bad haha
How was your Monday? Did you SweatPink today?

DeleteThat shirt is awesome!
ReplyDeleteI wanna check out Identity Thief - I heard it wasn't as good as expected from some friends! hm!
It really wasn't as good as I expected. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't amazing either. And I LOVE my shirt :)
DeleteI have a viewsport beast mode shirt too! I LOVE it. and that smoothie sounds yummy, I'm too lazy to clean my blender, so I rarely use it :)
ReplyDeletehaha ok well next time we meet up -- we're rocking them together! I had another smoothie this morning, but I'm lucky my blender is dish washer safe :)
DeleteLove those shirts! You should visit sox box.com and check out their matching socks! :)
ReplyDeleteGirl - I just found out about them (I think through you) and just ordered some. I'm SO excited :)
DeleteThe cauliflower sounds good...my mom made it years ago and we didnt like it but the way you made it sounds delish!!! And the quiche sounds good...hubs doesnt eat it so it would be just for me:)
ReplyDeleteYour smoothie sounds like our morning smoothies!!!!
You should try it again now -- I really do enjoy it! I had the quiche for dinner tonight too with salsa on top -- SO good! I'm proud of your smoothies in the mornings! Are you guys enjoying them and staying full till lunch/snack time?
DeleteSounds like you had a fun day Monday. Your Paleo challenge food looks awesome. I'm a somewhat newbie runner. Hope you got to run. Loving your blog and following.
ReplyDeleteYay! Welcome and thanks for coming by! How long have you been running? It will change your life! :)
DeleteLove viewsport! I've tried the mashed cauliflower before and didn't make it right or something because it was too runny. I'm thinking about doing a whole 30 challenge... I think I can I think I can!
ReplyDeleteDo it do it! I love my whole 30, I just don't want to be so strict this go around haha :)
