What a weekend! I still can’t believe that the Healthy Living Summit is really over. I absolutely loved living in healthy living-vacation land for a few days. And I loved being able to devote that much time and energy to health, wellness, and friends in such a fun and positive environment.
*Sigh* Back to reality.
Breakfast
Not surprisingly, I slept through my alarm this morning. I missed my morning workout, but my body definitely needed the rest. I was exhausted! I have a workout planned for later tonight– probably some lower body strength training, which I’ve blown off for over a week now! I’m really trying to make exercise a priority in my life, like Bob Greene suggested, so it’s on the top of my list for tonight.
I was in a little bit of a rush this morning, so I toasted a cinnamon raisin bagel and topped it with Barney Butter and banana slices. Fast and simple.
After listening to Jenna rave about Amazing Grass this past weekend, I knew that I should give it another try. For breakfast, I also mixed up an Amazing Grass-chocolate-coffee drink to take on my commute.
In the mix:
- 1 packet Amazing Grass Kidz Super Food
- 8 oz. vanilla soy milk
- 8 oz. iced coffee
I “need” coffee in the morning to get me going, so my grass + chocolate + caffeine drink was the prefect morning combination for me. It definitely worked! 
Lunch
Today’s lunch was all over the place because we have no food in our apartment. In a rush this morning, I came up with this lunch:
Edamame:
(A few edamame are missing from this photo because I dug-in before I snapped a pic.)
Art’s Original Blend Pro Bar:
I loved all of the nuts in this flavor!
And pineapple-flavored Chobani:
The combo of (random-ish) foods satisfied me quite well. It stinks that there wasn’t fresh fruit and veggies included in today’s lunch, but I plan to fix that with a produce-packed dinner.
Yelp’s Red Carpet Gallery Gala
Bostonians: Is anyone attending Yelp’s Red Carpet Gallery Gala tomorrow night? Let me know if you are! It’d be fun to meet up!

How do you make fitness a priority in your life?

Mmm, looks great. Oh, by the way — all that HLS, Zesty blog-chat inspired me to finally start my own blog! Check it out if you get a chance. Look forward to hearing the winner tonight!
I *try* to get up in early but if I don’t then I pack a portable lunch to eat and then walk around my school’s neighborhood during my lunch hour. It’s not the same as a run in the AM but at least my body is moving and I get the energy burst from it!
How’s cute little Murphy doing? I bet he missed his Mama!
Whoa, pineapple Chobani?! Yuuuum! Where did you find that flavor?
Your Amazing Grass coffee combo sounds delish. I have yet to try any of their products, and I might have to start with this concoction.
Pineapple Chobani!! I have to find this stuff!
For me, I work in fitness by literally putting it on my calendar every day. I have the benefit of having a place to work out at work so I usually use my lunch hour for that every day during the week. Then I tentatively “schedule” activities to do on the weekends like go for a walk, clean, etc. on my calendar too (I use Google calendar).
It really helps me!
