MiMM- Much needed relaxation

15 Apr

Happy Monday!  I hope all had a great weekend!  Mine was pretty relaxing and much needed!

Onto a MIMM thanks to Katie!

Image

Marvelous is..all you can eat sushi! I ate 6, yes 6 rolls. Can I get a oink oink (lmao i really did just say that too)

 Marvelous is..getting my bake on with my favorite chicks! It was a really crappy day Friday so we made some of these cookies.  Then the 3 of us split the batch. YUM!

Marvelous is..my long lost love kombucha! Always feel so refreshing after I drink them, as long as none of the little stringyness touches my mouth.

Image

Marvelous is..too many peanut butter and jelly sandwiches this weekend.  Never gets old.

Image

Marvelous is..this movie, I swear I am Gigi.

Image

Marvelous is..pancakes!  I made them for the past 3 days.  Can’t get enough.  I been trying to switch up the kinds I make each day for the challenge!

Image

Is it just me that will use the smallest spoonful of batter just to not waste it and make a tiny pancake? PS ignore my hot nails.

Marvelous is..dunkins iced tea!  I was not in the mood for coffee when I went on sunday (I know right) so I decided to broaden my horizon and get the iced tea.  I think the workers almost had a heart attack too.

Marvelous is.. running without having a constant runny nose.  Sorry is that’s TMI but you colder weather runners, do you know what I am talking about?! I won’t even have a stuffy nose but you bet it will be running on any runs, my poor sleeves.  With it being nice out I now enjoy runs runny nose free. HOLLA

What makes me happy: monthly dinner with the salon girls.  I made it a thing to go to the bar/restaurant next door and about 5 of us go after a busy Saturday.  It’s good to just let loose with them and talk since we barely can catch up during work.  We sometimes stay after and just drink all night but I am punishing myself until school ends not to drink because of my crappy grade I got lol.  Especially after my YOLO night, I need a break.

Whats marvelous about your Monday?

Do you like PB (or any nut butter) & J?  What kind of jelly?  Strawberry is my fav ❤

Do you like to have planned girls nights every few weeks?  If so what do you guys usually do?

WIAW In the Sun

10 Apr

Hello Everyone, I can’t get enough of this gorgeous weather.  After this I am going to go for a quick run outside then go to the gym for chest/abs..Yesterday was legs and I didn’t finish them because I got so hot there doing them and was getting nausea.  I already get a stomach ache doing legs but sweating like a pig on top of it killed me.  Does anyone else get a stomach ache during legs?!

Onto Wednesday, so glad this week is flying!  Thanks for Jenn for hosting!

Image

Breakfast

I woke up at 5 and could already tell it was going to be one of those mornings that I don’t get satisfied by anything I eat.  So instead of switching it up today like I have been with Meghan’s challenge, I went with my usual 2 eggs, sweet potato and kale sauteed in coconut oil with nutritional yeast.

Image

I also had my DD, butter pecan. ❤

Lunch

I had to pack something easy to eat because I wasn’t stopping home in between my class because I had to go to the library.  I was not bringing tuna in the library. I get looks for my smoothies now being smelly too?! Not happening.

Image

Celery&Carrots with hummus, green smoothie consisiting of strawberries, an orange, coconut milk, banana, protein powder, and spinach, and an apple.  I never ate the apple so once I came back from the gym I did with a scoop of protein powder with some almond milk and peanut butter, so goooood. (yes I used a measuring cup as my bowl)

Image

Dinner

Finally something new for the challenge.  I made a tempeh burger that was so good with some ketchup, corn and broccoli on the side.  Perfect meal for a gorgeous day!

Image

Snack

Popcorn kick is back in full force. Then I had a cup of peanuts.

What makes me happy: enough said. Image

 

Do you sometimes find it hard to switch up your meals?  What is your hardest one to switch?

Are you a baseball fan?

Overwhelming Week.

8 Apr

Hey everyone, I miss you guys!  This is the first time turning on the computer since my last post over a week ago.  So bad.  I been reading all your posts from my phone though but some posts I can’t comment on from my phone so I am sorry about that I am still up to date with all of you though!  After my vacation getting back to school was so hectic.  I have 10 classes left and so much to do.  I had midterms the day we got back because me teachers a, well for lack of a better word.. meany.  I bombed them both and it’s been nonstop since then.  I mean for me to not turn on my computer this long, you know I am busy! 

I join this every now and then and always love it so I am gonna keep up with it.  Here’s my MIMM thanks to Katie!

Image

Even though I have been stressed to the max I still had plenty of good times of me making a complete ass out of myself.  For example, this cute guy in my class I never really talked to (he hasn’t falling for the hair flip yet) came and sat with me as I was eating my smoothies the other day.  Almost died.  But then we are waiting in the hall for our classroom to open (apparently he likes to get to class an hour early too) and I am being all as I think I was “cute” as I was leaning againest the wall.  I go to walk away and the picture frame I was leaning on gets caught in my hair.  Then it continues to fall off the wall and this 16×14 frame is now hanging from my hair.  I am hysterical laughing and the poor guy looks mortified as he is trying to get it out of my hair.  I sure no how to break the ice. I wonder if he will tutor me?

Marvelous is Meghan‘s awesome challenge for April.  You try something new whether it’s a recipe, food, workout, etc. each day for the month.  Though I been a sucky blogger lately I have been actually trying something new each day.  Most of them are recipes which is really great because I needed to switch it up badly!

Marvelous is dunkin donuts butter pecan coffee!  Whatttt.  I got so excited that I got both the mint chocolate chip and butter pecan because you know just incase they didn’t have the flavors there the next day.  Mint choco chip was ehhh not to good.  Butter pecan was the bomb though.  I wonder if that counts as trying something new?! 😉

Image

Marvelous is it finally getting nice out.  Meaning no more pants! 

ImageI honestly hate pants and can live in dresses year round.

Marvelous is those bruises I am rocking on my knees.  My bottle of YOLO this weekend got the best of me.  You win dragon berry rum, you win.

 

Image

Marvelous is being half way done with livefit!

Image

2 weeks before and after.  If only I followed the diet plan completely and didn’t love liquor so much!  Haha, but I am loving the results and will write up about it and about the diet this week since I got some questions about it!

Marvelous is finally watching some movies that I been wanting to see!  I finally watched Argo and Life of Pi.  Argo was good, the other one however wasn’t my cup of tea.

Not so marvelous is going to type up 1 of the 2 papers due and study for my test tomorrow.  I will be back though !

What makes me happy: I know I said it already but 10 classes left.  Then it’s my last hoorah summer!  I am meeting with my 2 bestfriends this week just to make a things to do this summer.  Any good ideas?!

Have you seen any new movies lately?

Have you tried the new DD flavors?

I can’t be alone, who else has fell from too much alcohol?  Make me feel better! lol
