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 😉

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 🙂

    I will read as many books as possible this year. Less TV, more reading!



  2. Shonna on January 4, 2011 at 10:50 pm

    I will be able to tarot readings without referring to a book by April 30th, 2011.



  3. April @ Crazy Fabulous Life on January 4, 2011 at 10:50 pm

    I will run 3 miles in 24 minutes or less by August!



  4. Stephanie on January 4, 2011 at 10:52 pm

    My goal is to read more! No more just sitting in front of the TV after work/the gym and before bed!



  5. Melissa G on January 4, 2011 at 10:52 pm

    To complete my first half marathon- signed up for it, It’s April 10th!! Yeah for roons 🙂



  6. Jennie on January 4, 2011 at 10:53 pm

  7. Kimberly on January 4, 2011 at 10:54 pm

    To run a half marathon after a year and a half off! Feb 6th is my day!



  8. jeri on January 4, 2011 at 10:55 pm

    I will set a PR in one of (hopefully all of!) my race distances!!



  9. Kasey @ The Balanced Bicyclist on January 4, 2011 at 10:55 pm

    One of my goals: I want to spend more quality time with my husband. To achieve that, we are no longer using our computers after 10 pm. It’s been helping us feel more connected and sleep a lot better 🙂



  10. The Healthy Hostess on January 4, 2011 at 10:56 pm

    Run a marathon! Thanks!
    🙂



  11. Sheri on January 4, 2011 at 10:57 pm

    Completing my first 1/2 marathon. I’m really not a fan of running but do love a good challenge! Started officially training 10 days ago so here goes nothing!
    March 27th. Rock n roll dallas!!!!



  12. Julia on January 4, 2011 at 10:58 pm

    I’m a long time runner who had major knee surgery this past July (google Fulkerson osteotomy if you want to be horrified). My doctor told me he thinks I’ll be running again by March; right now I can just jog for thirty seconds or so at a time. So– my goal is to be able to run a 10k by October to celebrate healthy knees!



  13. Julie on January 4, 2011 at 10:58 pm

    I wish so bad my gym had body pump classes! I will run my first half marathon by March 21, 2001! I’m signed up for one on March 20th 🙂



  14. Allie M on January 4, 2011 at 10:59 pm

    To run a 5K by April. I have a really hard time motivating myself to run further than a mile at a time. I’m determined to push myself to run further!



  15. Felicia (A taste of Health with Balance) on January 4, 2011 at 10:59 pm

    i WILL do a 3rd triathlon in august!



  16. Ashley on January 4, 2011 at 10:59 pm

    I WILL run another half marathon and beat my PR!



  17. Liz on January 4, 2011 at 11:00 pm

    To take risks!! I want to accomplish something by the end of every month that is so out of my personality that it’s going to challenge me to be the best I can. This month (and don’t laugh) it’s to start dating more and have a good time, because I tend to be too focused on working out and my career that I don’t loosen up that much. And I actually have one tomorrow night with a pilot! 🙂



  18. Laura on January 4, 2011 at 11:00 pm

    I will learn to meditate 20 min per day by July 2011



  19. Carolyn on January 4, 2011 at 11:01 pm

    Improve my next 1/2 marathon time by 15 min. I have until June!



  20. Catherine on January 4, 2011 at 11:01 pm

    Complete my second half marathon (The Phoenix Rock n’ Roll half) on January 13th!!



  21. Andrea on January 4, 2011 at 11:02 pm

    I will run my first 5k this year! Hmmm those macaroons look YUM! Good 5k fuel, too, I bet. 😉



  22. Alycia [Fit n Fresh] on January 4, 2011 at 11:02 pm

    I will get certified for SOMETHING by July 2011 🙂



  23. Erin on January 4, 2011 at 11:02 pm

    To be happy. 2010 was ROUGH…so in 2011 i am just wanting some calm, happiness, family, hiking and less tears. I’m SO excited for this new year! It’s going to be a GREAT one!



  24. rebecca lustig on January 4, 2011 at 11:05 pm

    i have until may 16 to explore a world of new foods… on may 16 i embark on a trip to europe (paris and rome included)



  25. kirsten on January 4, 2011 at 11:07 pm

    I will complete two bible study courses towards my certificate by May 2011. I have 7 credits already and have 5 more to go for a certificate. I will also go to Hawaii this year with my husband. Our plans fell through to go there for our honeymoon. This year, God willing, we will celebrate our 17th anniversary in Maui. Cheers, Kirsten PS. I love your blog and have been following you silently for several months. Thanks for your dedication.



  26. vicky on January 4, 2011 at 11:08 pm

    I will travel out of the country twice by December 2011 🙂



  27. Ashley on January 4, 2011 at 11:08 pm

    To have my broken foot healed within the next six weeks so I can go back to work! Not an extravagant life changing goal, but when you’re stuck in the house and can’t work, it means a lot!



  28. Namaste Gurl on January 4, 2011 at 11:08 pm

    My goal for this upcoming year is to complete 10 miles by april of this year– hope it happens! 🙂



  29. Chelsea on January 4, 2011 at 11:08 pm

    I would loveee to try your famous ‘roons!

    One of my goals for this year is to stay on top of my school work, and keep up with it as the semester goes on. I have a habit of leaving things to the last minute and then stressing hard a few days before a midterm/final exam. So my goal is to not let that happen this semester!!



  30. Annie (Delicious Wellness) on January 4, 2011 at 11:10 pm

    I will run my first marathon this spring!



  31. Gina on January 4, 2011 at 11:11 pm

    I will run my very first race- a 5k! No if, ands, or buts 🙂



  32. Steph on January 4, 2011 at 11:11 pm

    I will pay off my car loan by June 2011!



  33. gina on January 4, 2011 at 11:12 pm

    I will complete yoga teacher training by the end of May 2011 (super nervous/excited!!!)



  34. Jessica on January 4, 2011 at 11:12 pm

    My goal is to practice yoga 3 times a week in 2011! The mental & physical benefits continue to amaze me:)



  35. Jaime on January 4, 2011 at 11:12 pm

    My goal is to start taking yoga classes. There is a yoga studio in my apartment building, so you think it would be easy to just go down and take a class, but I’m intimidated for some reason!! Anyway, I would like to start taking classes this month!



  36. Lauren on January 4, 2011 at 11:15 pm

    My goal is to exercise vigorously for 30 minutes at least 5 days each week for the whole year (and hopefully for the rest of my life!) 🙂



  37. Yin on January 4, 2011 at 11:18 pm

    I will run a 5K within the year 🙂



  38. Fueling for Fitness on January 4, 2011 at 11:18 pm

    My goal is to be able to do three arm balancing poses in yoga by April, and a full headstand by the end of the year!



  39. Alison (Fueling for Fitness) on January 4, 2011 at 11:19 pm

    My goal is to be able to do three arm balancing poses in yoga by April, and a full headstand by the end of the year!



  40. angelalovesfood on January 4, 2011 at 11:20 pm

    I would love to win those famous treats! My goal this year is to be more loving, compassionate, giving, and open my heart. This better last forever. I realized two days ago how I built up this wall of judgement towards people and especially the homeless, all of us are the same despite our circumstances! so I went out and bought bars of granolas and looking into good deal on socks etc if I can find a bulk. Work in progress.



  41. Eliza on January 4, 2011 at 11:21 pm

    I will try rock climbing (AND make my first vegas trip) by my birthday in February!



  42. Julie (A Case of the Runs) on January 4, 2011 at 11:22 pm

    I will finish my dissertation by December *gasp*!



  43. Alison (Fueling for Fitness) on January 4, 2011 at 11:22 pm

    So sorry for the double post. 🙁



  44. Samantha on January 4, 2011 at 11:24 pm

    My goal is to do well at my first *real* job when I’m done with residency this summer!



  45. Jesi on January 4, 2011 at 11:24 pm

    I had my son on Halloween and I’d like to start setting good examples for him by eating healthier and working out more.



  46. Paige on January 4, 2011 at 11:25 pm

    I’m going to push myself harder during my workouts during the next two months. I want to be feeling my best when I finally get to visit my boy at the USAFA in February. Colorado springs is too far from Austin, TX!



  47. Dionne on January 4, 2011 at 11:25 pm

    My goal is to be consistent with TurboFire and finally drop these last 20 lbs by August.

    Happy New Year!!



  48. Elizabeth R. on January 4, 2011 at 11:26 pm

    I am going to increase my fruit and vegetables by including two more servings per day.



  49. Angela on January 4, 2011 at 11:29 pm

    I will train for and complete my second marathon May 2011.



  50. Emily on January 4, 2011 at 11:29 pm

    My goal is to get closer with God by spending time with Him some every day. I’ll be confident in our relationship by Christmas 2011!
