It’s Roon Time, Baby

January 4, 2011 |

Hi friends 🙂 How are you? Hope you’re having a wonderful day so far <3

I started mine off with a product call and a BodyPump class with a friend. BodyPump is pretty much rocking my world, cheesy music and singing instructors aside 🙂 I push myself way harder during BP than when I do weights on my own.

Post-workout snack:

pancakes

Perfect protein pancakes!

They were a little on the burned side, but I covered it up with almond butter and a splash of prickly pear syrup from the farmer’s market 😉

syrup

This afternoon was filled with errands and to-dos, then I decided stinky Bella needed a date with the bathtub.

My madre bought these for Bell  – Paul Mitchell’s new line for pets.

shampoo

Bella loved it!

She smells like sweet oatmeal now 🙂

  16. rita on January 4, 2011 at 10:31 pm

    i will consistently workout and eat well throughout the year (instead of just for months on and off like the last few years) so that i feel great for my march costa rica vacation, for my friend’s weddings in august and september, and the entire time in between!

    thank you for being awesome!:)



  17. Calisara on January 4, 2011 at 10:31 pm

  21. Holly on January 4, 2011 at 10:33 pm

    I will not stress the little stuff (that always seems like BIG stuff, until you really stop to think about it) and also remember to take time to appreciate all the things that truly matter…EVERY single day 🙂

    ‘roons!!
    I am so excited to try my first bodypump class tomorrow, i just had my first spin class today, it was awesome.

    one goal is to graduate and officially be a holistic nutritionist by summer 2012, I’ve still got a lot to learn, but i’ve learned so much thus far.



  34. Abbie on January 4, 2011 at 10:38 pm

    I want to take time to read more! One book a month, starting today!!



  35. Dynamics on January 4, 2011 at 10:39 pm

    I WILL make it to the top of my mountain without stopping!!! I am injured now,but will take three weeks to complete my goal once the doc says its okay. This mountain puts me in the best shape and the climb is beautiful at this time of the year with everything greening up.



  36. Ali @ Ali on the Run on January 4, 2011 at 10:40 pm

    Mmmmmm I want some macaroons! Yum! My goal is to run a sub-2 hour 1/2 marathon this year. I hope to achieve the goal anytime within 2011, since I haven’t figured out my race schedule for the year yet. Stay tuned!



  37. Jill on January 4, 2011 at 10:40 pm

    I will donate blood by the end of January!



  38. Katie on January 4, 2011 at 10:41 pm

    body pump always pushes me hard! i think it’s because i am a little bit competitive at heart. 🙂

    a goal of mine is to have money saved up for a trip to visit oregon state uni in may. hopefully i get in and get enough financial aid to go. (i am transferring next year, and oregon would be a dream come true!) i hope to save up all of the money by the end of march.



  39. Debbie on January 4, 2011 at 10:41 pm

    To get published – specifically, my thesis in a scientific journal, by the end of 2011.



  40. Jordan on January 4, 2011 at 10:42 pm

    I’m going to beat my previous half marathon time at the Austin Half Marathon on February 19th!



  41. Dani on January 4, 2011 at 10:43 pm

    I will become a full vegetarian by summer!



  42. Michelle on January 4, 2011 at 10:43 pm

    I want to lose 20 pounds by May. I believe that I can accomplish that, then I can start on the other 50, so that I can be healthy!



  43. liz on January 4, 2011 at 10:44 pm

    I will completely cleanse my wardrobe and will give away every article of clothing that I have not worn in one year by JANUARY 31, 2011!!

    Can’t wait to read tomorrow’s post. I hope everything’s okay!
    My goal is to speak FLUENT Spanish! I’m studying abroad in Spain so I think I can accomplish it.
    <3



  45. Brandi on January 4, 2011 at 10:44 pm

    Eat clean and stop caving into my sugar cravings. Hopefully I can do this gradually throughout the year so there’s no real goal date.



  46. Jessica @ Dairy Free Betty on January 4, 2011 at 10:44 pm

    406 entries! woo hoo girl… your roons are loved!!

    My resolution = to graduate from school with a 3.5 or higher GPA… It’s at 3.6 right now, but this upcoming semester is a doosey, plus I am getting married in Mexico the week before my midterms! EEK!



  47. Maddie on January 4, 2011 at 10:45 pm

    I want to find a new hobby by July 2011! Food and fitness started as hobbies for me, but have become my lifestyle. I need something new in my life! I bought a paint set today as a first attempt. We’ll see how it goes… I’ve never had artistic training, more just a creative flair so I don’t really know what I’m doing! If I end up hating it, I’m just going to keep exploring new things till I find something that clicks.

    Thanks, Gina!! Happy New Year to you!



  48. Leah on January 4, 2011 at 10:46 pm

    I want to train for and ride a century on my bike before the summer is over.



  49. Allison on January 4, 2011 at 10:46 pm

    Passing the bar exam and buying my first condo. GUF! Thanks Gina!



  50. Stephanie on January 4, 2011 at 10:48 pm

    My goal is to have a new MacBook within the next 3 months. Mine just got stolen from my locked classroom on my 2nd day of teaching and I miss it so much already 🙁
