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 🙂

  2. Elizabeth on January 4, 2011 at 9:48 pm

  8. Heather on January 4, 2011 at 9:50 pm

    My goal this year is to be more organized, and I don’t really have an end tonight but rather to pick up a new “organized” habit every week (i.e. make a to-do list, clean for 20 minutes every day, keep the kitchen cabinets clean and neat, etc) and hopefully stick with it!



  9. Kasia on January 4, 2011 at 9:50 pm

    I vow to stay committed to my goal of moving abroad! It’s scary but I know it’ll be worth it and I can do it!

  21. Jen on January 4, 2011 at 9:55 pm

    March 2010, I decided to “run” a 10k over a bridge with college friends. The Monday afterwards, I started couch to 5k and have been going since. My goal is go take that 10k from 1 hour and 29 minutes, 41 seconds to sub 1 hour. This will be done on April 2nd. 🙂



  22. Lisa on January 4, 2011 at 9:55 pm

    I will stop looking in the mirror to ask myself, do I look fat in this?” Instead, I will look in the mirror and say, “wow, I look just as fab as I feel”.



  23. Nicole on January 4, 2011 at 9:56 pm

    I will run the Calgary half marathon in May in less than 2 hours 🙂

  27. Monica on January 4, 2011 at 9:57 pm

    Oh my gosh I’ve been wanting to win roons forever!! I’m really going to try to focus on mindful eating (read: no more stress eating!!) this year… I’d like to have it somewhat under control by June!



  28. Kathryn on January 4, 2011 at 9:57 pm

    My goal is to get back into some pants that don’t fit (probably 5-10lbs) by April! I’m trying out intuitive eating so hopefully that will be enough time!



  29. abergin on January 4, 2011 at 9:57 pm

    Love the giveaway! I hope to have ran a half marathon by summer! 🙂



  32. wendy on January 4, 2011 at 9:58 pm

    My ultimate goal is to get healthier in 2011. I have many “sub-goals” that I am working into my daily/weekly routine to achieve that goal, such as getting 7 hours of sleep each night and meditating daily.



  33. LEM on January 4, 2011 at 9:58 pm

    I´ll have a gallery expo. of my photography work by August 2011!



  34. Erica on January 4, 2011 at 9:58 pm

    My goal for 2011 is to bring positive healthy habits into my life. With my boyfriend away at law school it can get kind of tough to feel motivated and always cheery. But i know from experience that taking care of my body makes me feel better inside and out. Whether it is making healthy meals, taking new and exciting group fitness classes or just journaling my everyday eats….I want to make great health a habit!

    Good luck with everything FITNESSISTA related in 2011!



  35. Nina on January 4, 2011 at 9:59 pm

    Focusing on being present everyday and taking nothing for granted.



  36. Lauren on January 4, 2011 at 9:59 pm

    I hope to have landed my dream job full time by april! – right now im just a sub!
    love the paul mitchell dog products! ill have to try!



  37. marina on January 4, 2011 at 10:01 pm

    I WILL be 30 lbs lighter and happier and more confident by our Mediterranean vacation in October 2011!



  38. Isaure on January 4, 2011 at 10:01 pm

    I will smile at strangers and compliment people more- it always makes my day when people I don’t know say nice things since you know it’s from the heart 🙂



  39. Kristin on January 4, 2011 at 10:01 pm

    My goal is to run a 1/2 marathon by November 1, 2011. I am hoping to register for a September race in my hometown! I would LOOOOVE some ‘roons to kick off the new year!!! 🙂



  40. Erin on January 4, 2011 at 10:01 pm

    My goal is to run a half-marathon in June 2011!



  41. Tracey @ Oliver Rain on January 4, 2011 at 10:01 pm

    My goal is to get rid of my pooch and actually see the abs I’ve been working so hard on by summer.



  42. Laura @ Meet Virginia on January 4, 2011 at 10:01 pm

    I WILL reach my healthy goal weight by March 2011!



  43. mi-an dela cruz on January 4, 2011 at 10:01 pm

    Master headstand by April 2011!!



  44. Crystal (Bye Bye Fat Pants) on January 4, 2011 at 10:02 pm

    I will be 40lbs down by July 30, 2011!



  45. Katie on January 4, 2011 at 10:04 pm

    This is a somewhat vague goal but I will learn to listen and respect my body and feelings more in 2011. I spent too much of 2010 focusing on specific numbers and results. This resulted in me pushing myself to the limit physically, mentally and emotionally. This year I am making my happiness a priority in my life!



  46. sara on January 4, 2011 at 10:05 pm

    My goal is to tone up and lose about ten pounds by March when my man comes home after his deployment and we go to St. Lucia!



  47. Bridget on January 4, 2011 at 10:05 pm

    My goal is to do a triathalon. I am planning on doing the IronGirl in Syraucuse, NY this spring. I have run marathons, so the running isn’t an issue, however I am an AWFUL swimmer. I am ready to change that though and make this the year I become good (or at least decent) at swimming!



  48. Daphne on January 4, 2011 at 10:05 pm

    My goal is to run a marathon by March 2011! 😀



  49. Marie R. on January 4, 2011 at 10:05 pm

    I will save 10% of my income for a new house all year. I don’t plan to move until next summer but I want to start now so that I can combine it with the equity in my current house. Then, get something a little more expensive but keep my payment the same.



  50. Sarah S on January 4, 2011 at 10:05 pm

    my goal is to become more comfortable in my own skin this year. this entails working on enjoying being by myself more often, being fulfilled by the small things in life, and focusing on quality time with friends and family. i haven’t figured out quite how i’ll measure this yet, but my fiance (soon to be husband in march) is a marine officer and will be deployed in august, so i’m confident i’ll figure it out 🙂 this and other healthy living blogs that i’ve discovered since early november are really helping me so far!
