Day 19:

 

Packed the kids up this morning and headed out to the gym only to have to turn around because a winter storm was brewing

So...took them both in the basement with me and rode the spin bike for 30 minutes while reading a book about 12 steps to eating raw food.

 

Love the book so far and it got me thinking about blending greens again vs juicing them. Made up a big batch of green smoothie and have been enjoying that throughout the day. It's nice to not have any wasted pulp this way

Day 21:

 

Did my first spin class in years this morning with my husband. It's a totally different experience when someone else is controlling your cardio output - had such a great sweat.

 

Unfortunately have caught a little cold though and going to grab some zzz's today!

Day 24:

 

Hit the gym at 6am this morning before the kids woke up - really love the feeling of getting my workout/shower done before they crazy day begins. Had a ton more energy to get through all the dreaded house tasks because of it!

 

Eats:

Made a delish Chana Masala for dinner tonight - I could eat Indian food every day!

Day 26:

 

Did the most luxurious yoga class this morning all while the studio provided free child minding!! It has been so long and my body was craving the deep stretching. I love this local mom/baby studio I've just found and I'm so excited to keep trying some of their other classes.

Day 31:

 

Wow - last day of Jan!!

 

Took the babe with me to Mom & baby yoga this morning. I'll miss these classes when they're done cause it's been such a nice bonding experience.

 

I need to get up a bit earlier on these days to do morning cardio so that I'm getting a little more of a workout in!
