Vita Mix+PB2+Shakeology=Amazing

I love my chocolate Shakeology, that is no secret, but I wanted to branch out and try a new recipe and boy is this one is good stuff!!! I started with this of course, my trusty Vita Mix 5200 **would you like free shipping on a new or refurbished Vita Mix machine? use this code when placing your order online or at the Vita Mix store 06-009319 ** I added 8 oz of H2O and my single serving packet of goodness, Strawberry Shakeology 1.5 tbs of PB2 threw in about 4-6 oz of vanilla almond milk and some ice. Blended in my super machine and viola…best Peanut butter and jelly Shakeology! It not only tasted amazing, I am getting over 70 super foods into my system that I would never be able to get with just a regular clean diet. It is my Daily Dose of Dense Nutrition and I love it. I have better energy, my sweet tooth is satisfied, I feel great and it reduces my cravings. Really, I cannot say enough good about this part of my day, I am craving it just typing this! You sho...

Boy, basketball & I use the word pissed a lot.

It is a love hate relationship with the boy and basketball…we all love it, he hates it. Well, he says he hates it but secretly he is starting to like it, I can tell. He has to right? He comes from a genealogy of basketball well beyond his parents. When I was young, life, literally the beginning of my life, revolved around a basketball game. One shining Moment was played at our wedding! He has been wearing basketball shorts since he was born, so he has to be a basketball player, right?                   He worked really hard last summer at camps and clinics and improved on many of skills, like everything with him his focus wasn't there yet but I really saw him trying. He needed to get skills just to be able to prepare to try out for a team.  He tried out for a team this fall and got cut. I was pissed! Not pissed he didn't make the team (in hindsight him not making it was the best thing for him, he would have learned no...

Full Moon

Boy yesterday was one crazy day. Do you ever have those days where everything is just out of whack? Crazy? Nothing feels to be falling into place? That is how yesterday was for me. While I try to eat clean as much as I can, yesterday day was day 1 of my 5 day Clean Eating Challenge. I really needed this and always feel amazing during and right after and so far this time has been no different. My problem yesterday though was I did not nearly drink enough water and boy did I pay for that by dinner time. I had a HUGE headach and when I got home everything was out of sorts. I had my regular things to get done but it was all just out of place and order. My plan was to get plenty of rest which means go to bed by 8:30 and at 10:30 I was still up trying to finish up. What I did do that was amazing was got back on the mat for a hot powerful flow class that was just what I needed. :)  ( I hadn't been to yoga in 2 weeks due to my FL trip and crazy schedule last week)  For that one ho...

sports, kids and a breakdown!

My weekends for the past few months have been in gyms, not the whole weekend (although some weekends it has been the whole weekend) but at least one day of the weekend. So today when I asked the 2 older kids if they wanted to go to basketball skills today and they both responded 'no' I have to say, I wasn't too broken up about it. Yesterday Grace's U11 team won their tournament for the third week in a row. These girls are just a great group of girls. They have worked their butts off for the past 3 years and they have such a great team bond. They are different ages, and have different friends but they are a team and it is awesome! and really how cute is that little manager on the bottom right! I have to admit, I had a little breakdown a few weeks ago and just snapped from the whole living in a gym thing. It was a rough weekend, we had volleyball all day, 2 basketball games after the all day volleyball and I had been inside a gym for 15 straight hours. My other kid...

Spring today Winter tomorrow

Today was what happens each year, about this time. We get our hopes up, some people bust out the flip flops, lots of fresh pedicures, open up the windows and doors and then we are smacked back down about 12 hours later. That is what is happening outside right now. We had a 'sight' of spring the past 2 day, temps above 50 and some peeks of the sun. Over the next 8 hours that will change, the rain has started, then turn to ice, followed by 8-12 inches are expected. The good news? 1. It won't be 8-12 inches, they always say it is way worse than it really is. 2. This should be about the last time this happens. While I won't say it will be, as mother nature usually turns on us again late March early April, it this point I start to know the end is near. BUT in 76 short days it is Memorial Day and you know what that means…the KICK OFF for summer. This also means bathing suits are moving in quickly. Prepare for that this year, commit to a fitness program for the next 90 day...
