Happy Friday!
Yesterday
Yesterday afternoon, I took the kids to Chuck E Cheese one last time before school starts. Jaden was very happy because he won the bonus on one of the games.
Yeah, it only takes 15 tokens to win the jackpot. Oh well, the kids had tons of fun. And they turned their tickets in for some awesome prizes.
And by awesome, I mean the glasses fell apart before we even reached the parking lot.
After Chuck E. Cheese, we ran into Wal-Mart next door. That’s where I saw this:
Cocoa Puffs, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, and Reese’s Puffs muffins?! Somebody please tell me that you’ve tried these before. I didn’t buy one but I wouldn’t be opposed to eating a Reese’s Puffs muffin.
At a different store later in the evening, I found this funny hoodie.
I didn’t buy it either, but it’s fun to take picture of stuff that you don’t own.
Today’s Breakfast
Ever since I first made the peach oatmeal yogurt parfait, I have been eating them like crazy. It’s so good, and the mixture of the oatmeal, peach, and yogurt gives the perfect flavor and texture combination.
I made one for breakfast this morning with a white flesh peach (so good!) and topped it with blueberries.
Today’s Workout
- BodyPump – 60 minutes
I had a special guest at BodyPump today – Danny!
He has the day off of work because we’re heading to Wisconsin soon, so I talked him into going to BodyPump with me. Actually, he really does like BodyPump. Since you pick your own weight, it’s a good workout for anyone.
My second to last Biggest Loser weigh-in is on Monday. (The final weigh-in is actually at 6:30 am the day of the 5k). I am not very happy about the weigh-in being on Monday since we will be at my grandparent’s all weekend and there will be lots of yummy food, including s’mores.
I tend to not eat as healthy when we’re away from home and with family and friends. And it’s harder to plan meals when I’m not at home. We’ll see how it goes, and I’m going to try extra hard to really watch what I eat. I am bringing some of my own food with me to eat healthy, but whenever I do that, everyone else’s food always ends up looking so much better than mine. Then, I eat theirs.
Questions of the day:
- Do you eat healthy when on vacation or do you enjoy food more? Ever had a s’more made with a Reese’s peanut butter cup? Delicious.
- Do you and your significant other enjoy different workouts? Ever workout together?
- Any plans this weekend?
I definitely eat much worse when I am on vacation. I always say I will try and be good but somehow it never happens.
Those cereal muffins look delicious but I bet they are loaded down with all kind of bad ingredients. Still…..if someone else made them and offered me one, I wouldn’t turn it down!!
That’s why I didn’t buy them, but thought they looked very interesting!
My husband and I don’t work out together, but we both get up in the morning, have a quick bite and some coffee together before doing our own things for working out (I go to a gym and he doesn’t).
Oh Body Pump . . . I miss that class. I used to take it years ago at a prior gym. Loved it!
That hoodie is so awesome!!! I”m going to Maine this wkend.
Have fun in Maine!
I def want that hoodie for my boys! I eat like crap on vacation. I never bring my own food places because I eat that first and then always end up eating the bad stuff too! So, yeah, my plan actually backfires! My husband and I actually met at the gym, but now we belong to different ones. We’ve worked out at the same time in the same place, but never together. We’re weird.
That’s so great that you guys met at the gym – I love it! And my healthy eating backfired this weekend too! Oh well.
That hoodie is so incredibly cute!! I love it!! I’m pretty sure my daughter would wear it. LOL
Holy crap, I will take any of those muffins any day!!! We tend to eat not as healthy on vacation, but vacations are special so I don’t mind
Yeah, I didn’t do very good eating healthy this weekend like I planned, but you’re right – vacations are special!
Haha I don’t think I could work out with a significant other! I need alone time and working out is just that.
Yes! I have to go to the gym to get a break from my kids or I might go crraazzyy.
That sweat shirt would make an excellent Halloween costume! Did the superman one have a cape?
Yes, the superman one had a cape! They were so cute!
