Weekend Wrap Up

Hey everyone! Sorry I didn't post yesterday, this weekend turned into absolute craziness! I woke up at the crack of dawn yesterday and got in an hour of cardio before work. I ended up working late because clients showed up 5 minutes after I was supposed to leave (instead of a half hour before like they said) and then locked my keys in my car after running errands. Yeah it was that kind of day! I ended up babysitting Delilah last night (sorry no pics, she went to bed like 15 minutes after I showed up) so I was out and about all day.

I spent most of the day cleaning, doing laundry and cooking (spaghetti squash hell yeah!). I haven't photographed all of my meals but here is a little bit of what I've eaten.

GF Multigrain Puffins with *cough Chocolate cough* unsweetened Almond Breeze. Don't judge me for using chocolate milk in my cereal, it was awesome! ;)

Hummus plate.

There was also avocado toast and salad and whatnot. Same old.

After I got home from the key locked in the car situation my mood was brightened after finding my package of goodies I ordered from Pangea! Check out the treats!

Gluten free german chocolate cake cookies (it comes in a 2 pack!).

Alternative Baking Company brand gluten free pumpkin spice cookie!

All cookies were cut in half and put in the freezer for an occasional treat. I like to have small treats on hand for dessert on a special occasion and I saw these and decided to get them!

This was the actual reason I placed the order. This is vegan "egg yolk" that I saw on Bianca's awesome blog, Vegan Crunk. This stuff is supposed to be good for things like French Toast and tofu scrambles. I can't wait to try a tofu scramble with it! The cookies were actually added on to the order to justify the $7 shipping charge. 

Today I also did my nails, check them out!

I was inspired by Sophie who always has the coolest nails! I saw her use this glittery polish and was obsessed with it :)

So the last major thing that happened this weekend was that I re-evaluated my fitness goals. I had to cut my Monday double sessions to singles because it was getting too expensive to use 3 sessions a week. I've also realized that as much as I hate to think this way, it will be really hard for me to really compete in a legit fight situation if my shoulder continues to weaken. I am still going to use my sessions as fight training, and I'll continue to train hard and be the best I can be, but I think that realistically my body has different plans than my heart in this case.

However, I find that I perform better when I set specific goals so I wanted to set more goals. I've been really interested in biking lately (even though I haven't started yet, ha!) and I really want to get back into running, so I've decided that I want to train for a 5k in the form of either the Warrior Dash or Run For Your Lives (the Warrior Dash was also inspired by Sophie!). I think the obstacles and mud and zombies will help keep my mind off of the whole running thing ;) I also am debating whether or not to maybe start training for a Duathlon (well a duathlon spint to start with) in the future. I'm going to talk to a trainer at the gym who is really into cycling and ask him how to go about training for that leg of it. We'll see though, these are just thoughts :) I also need to get back in the game with weight training. My session from Thursday really made me realize I need to get back into that. It's all about balance!

So, all in all it has been an eventful weekend. After dinner I'm going to go with my sister in law to get my massage :) I'm very excited, it's my first one!

I hope you all had a great weekend and enjoy the rest of your Sunday!
