Goodness gracious, I think I’m still smiling ear to ear after the amazing long weekend I had! In case you were a busy bee just like me and need to do some catching up, here’s a peek at all the fun I was up to…
Can This Be My Life Every Day?
Despite a later-than-I-like bedtime last night, I still managed to get myself up at the butt crack of dawn to head to the gym. Seeing as though I only squeezed in one workout this weekend (30 minutes of HIIT), I knew I was in need of a good sweat session. Today looked a little somethin’ like this:
- 15 mins HIIT (20 seconds @ 9.5mph / 40 seconds @ 4.5mph)
- BodyPump
- 10 mins StairMaster (<— ughhhhh, how can I hate but love something so much??)
After working up a good stench sweat, I decided to share the wealth with everyone at the grocery store. Thankfully, it was pretty empty, so only a few victims had to deal with the stinkiness.
But seriously, CHECK OUT my budget savvy shopping today…
$39.19 in savings! I may not be an Extreme Couponer, but hey, maybe I could be?
I left the grocery store on a complete high, and rewarded myself the best way I could think of…
Yes, it’s a large iced coffee. No, I don’t need a large iced coffee…but I’ll still drink it anyways. I tried ordering a medium, I promise, but they were out of cups. Totally not my fault…
Of course, because it’s already sweltering hot, I wrapped my cup up in my snazzy Dunkin’ Donuts koozie. They’re seriously the best in this weather! It looks like they only have them in a large size on the DD website, but I’m sure if you scope out the internet, you’ll be able to find one.

After unpacking my groceries, I put together a quick breakfast because, umm, I was about ready to gnaw off my left arm.
A nice, cold, cereal combo bowl made with Kashi Go Lean Crunch, Fiber One 80 Calorie Honey Squares (which came from Fitbloggin’), vanilla almond milk, banana slices, and chia seeds.
I’m still not totally sure how I feel about the Fiber One cereal; I almost feel like it leaves a little bit of a weird aftertaste. Has anyone else tried it yet??
Time to start tackling today….make it a great one!
