Recipe throwdown

Today was another win of a workout!

A killer bike-run brick. 50 min of hard biking, followed by 10 min of hard running. I went fast & felt strong. Unfortunately my eating isn't matching up, but I'm working on it.

I had a request for some recipe postings.

The Mexican Shepherd's Pie is from the Gracious pantry.

YUM!

Oh, and those amazing Non healthy Malibu Pina Colada Cupcakes?

They come from I'll Eat You.

I can definitely tell that my eating hasn't been as good lately, since I haven't had time to do my hypnosis on a daily basis. I really think it makes a difference, and need to get back at it. I am pleased with my past 2 days workouts though, and I'm looking forward to tomorrow's run!

Getting ready for a re-vamp

Did I show you my new toy?

The Ninja Blender.

Holy cow.

This blender is so incredibly powerful. Its just what I needed after my smoking blender fiasco. I got a great deal on it at Costco, and I am in LOVE!

I've also found a great blog thanks to S, The Gracious Pantry.

She makes clean eating easy with simple, clean recipes.

Tonight I made Mexican Shepherds Pie.

Amazing.

RnR DC is right around the corner. When I get home, I'm revamping my nutrition thanks to the re-spark program at Bia Fitness. I'm brainstorming how to maintain the guidelines (no sugar, no booze for 2 months. no combining food groups for a month). I'm studying up, but more on all that later!

Back to packing!
