Monday Insanity

Hi friends! Happy Monday!

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend! We spent Father’s Day with our in-laws (since it was my brother-in-law’s FIRST Father’s Day!) and had a lovely brunch with them. Later, we saw The A-Team (which I loved!), then we ate ANOTHER meal out! Luckily, we saved room for dessert at home:

There’s ALWAYS room for banana soft serve! (with peanut butter again, because it rocks!)

However, I was feeling incredibly stuffed when I woke up this morning! My body was NOT happy with me for eating out so much this weekend. I decided to listen to my body, and ended up having my first meal well after noon– I think my digestive system needed a break! When I finally felt the desire for something, fresh juice sounded amazing:

All organic: Head of romaine, 1/2 bunch kale, 1/2 Fuji apple, 1/2 lemon, 1/2 a beet. I know I’m in a juice-rut, but I don’t care. I love this combo so much!!

After work, I had a date with Shaun T:

I did a few Insanity workouts last week after my business trip, but this is my first “official” week on the Insanity program– I wanted to start on a Monday, so the extra workouts I did last week just count as my warm-up.   Today was the “Fit Test,” which sounds like nothing, but it’s truly a workout in itself! I can’t believe how hard it is! I did feel pretty BUFF, though, because I beat Chris in a few of the tests:

But, Chris did beat me on the push-up drill– I’m a WEAKLING when it comes to upper body strength! I’ll get you next time Chris… ha ha.

I’m kinda dreading tomorrow’s workout, but I’m excited at the same time! I’ve taken my “Before” pictures– so we’ll see what kind of results I get!!

After my workout, I dragged my sweaty, shaky body to the kitchen and decided a green monster would be the fastest way to re-fuel. I had some organic strawberries that were on their last leg, so into my smoothie they went! (after chopping of the icky spots, of course!)

I also added half a bag of mixed greens, one frozen banana, 1/2 tsp. Spirulina, 1 tsp. Maca, juice of 1/2 lemon, cinnamon and a couple drops of stevia. It didn’t look pretty:

But it tasted fabulous! :D  Lemon juice and cinnamon really help cover up the green taste!

Now that I’m all re-fueled, I’m going to walk to Whole Foods to get dinner supplies! I’m kind of in a hurry, but I have to walk because I’m car-less! My car is in the shop, so hopefully it will be good as new soon. Or at least it will start. That would be nice…

See you later with a dinner recap!
