Once I got up I worked up some motivation and got to it.
I started with about 15 minutes of strength training. I did 3 sets of this:
- 12 Bicep curls
- 12 Overhead presses
- 12 Chest presses
- 12 Tricep kickbacks
- 12 Bent rows
After that I scarfed a Clif Blueberry Z Bar
then got my bike out of the garage, put on my jazzy new helmet and went for a 13 mile bike ride on the American River Trail. I rode for a total on 1 hr and 5 minutes (including stopping at stop lights).
When I got home I stretched a little, and then put Enya in the cd player and just flowed through some yoga poses – mostly just basic moves, some warriors, pigeon, and a lot of downward dogs. It was by far the most relaxing 20 minutes of my day. Enya is amazing for yoga.
After a shower, I made myself some brunch – a Thin breakfast sandwich with 1 fried egg and .5 oz colby jack cheese with the last serving of my healthy coleslaw.
A little later I ate my free sample of Kashi Honey Sunshine.
I wasn’t super impressed with this cereal, I’m hoping it’s better in a greek yogurt mess or with some soymilk than it was plain…
After getting some really good news, I headed out to run errands at Target, Trader Joe’s, and Whole Foods. Ahh my three favorites.
Target was just for personal care products.
I picked up some SPF 30 while I was there because I have been feeling super guilty about running without it on, and I have a rafting trip next week that I can use it for!
Trader Joe’s was fun - I got to eat a sample of a PB&J…YUM
$14.96 for it all
But Whole Foods, of course, was the best! Tons of my favorite things were on sale including Oikos, Peaches, Amy’s Burritos and Wraps, and Green & Black Chocolate Bars!
Quite the haul for $55.80! I saved $6.50 using coupons! I ended up spending a little more than I intended to, because I bought all those Amy’s Burritos (they were on sale for $2.00/each down from $2.79 – how could I not!). But I know they will be eaten, so I’m ok with it.
When I got home I snacked on the last of my Food Should Taste Good Lime Chips (these were from the original free ones, I still have 2 individual bags left!) with some TJ’s chipotle salsa.
Dinner was a salad with romaine, carrots, peppers, mushrooms, feta cheese, 365 Ginger Soy Vinaigrette, and croutons, along with half a thin with some 365 Strawberry spread. Such a good dinner!
Dessert was FunDip - sometimes I just want some refined sugar…better to indulge once in awhile than eat it every day right!
Hope you all had a wonderful Sunday. I’m excited for tomorrow – may be getting brunch with a friend! Have fun celebrating Labor Day!
I don’t know if you noticed, but I updated my header today with some more recent pics! Let me know what you think of it!
When I travel, I have a sleep mix on my iPod full of songs that are relaxing and Enya is definitely on there!
What a great deal on the Amy’s burritos!! When I was a kid, I’d buy those Fun Dips purely to eat the sugar stick – the other sugary part was never eaten, haha!
I love the new header! That sammie looks super tasty!
Have fun on your rafting trip! I would LOVE to do something like that!
Mmm I’m loving all of those Amy’s burritos!! I love sales at Whole Foods.. it makes you feel so much better about buying stuff there! And Fun Dip!! I used to love that when I was a kid.. I haven’t had it in a while though! And I’m the opposite of K… I used to use the stick to eat the powder but would never eat the actual stick itself!
Hey! Thanks for stopping by my blog, I hope you keep coming back. I can’t wait to read up on yours too
Nothing wrong with the Fun Dip. That stuff is soooo good. And if it makes you feel any better, I probably eat refined sugar at least once a day. Oops!
Have a wonderful Monday dear!
