Happy to say I will be attending the 2nd annual Healthy Living Summit in August. I’ve never been to Chicago, so if anyone knows of places to eat and visit, please let me know.
I came home just in time to purchase my ticket Wednesday night after Zumba class and a 2 mile run.
Loving my new Yoga top, purchased for a measly $1.99 @ Old Navy. Woohoo gotta love that store; the tank kept me nice and cool during Zumba.

Freaking out…
I’ve been slacking in the running department lately…shame on me. I’m running this 5k with Kyra from A Foodie Gets Fit on Saturday for ”Run for Retrievers”; can’t wait to meet her in person. I’m focusing on fun rather than time, but I know I may change my mind at the last minute before the race begins.
Snack Attack.
Last night called for a late night smoothie since my body is craving fruits. Some weeks I go heavy on veggies but slack on fruit; not on purpose.

My smoothie contained:
- 1 cup strawberries
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 packet Amazing Grass Green Food
Happy Friday.
Good habits are forming with sticking to a schedule for work and life in general. I’m going strong with all my work outs and running. I pulled out my trusty crock pot to make dinner in advance last night. This way I have time for a work out, Old Navy stop and laundry. I’ve also decided to cook and bake more b/c I have been slacking in those categories.
Breakfast was another Amazing Grass smoothie on the go…

Fruit Leather to help curb my growling tummy before lunch.

- 30 push-ups
- 10 very hard planks held for 30 seconds
A yummy salad courtesy of Chris from last night, he brought it home from Buffalo Wild Wings. Yay, he went again…loves the wings and football.

I added the veggie patty for extra filling.
