Lovely Day for a Tea Giveaway
Hellooooooo 😀 How are ya?? I’m so glad ya’ll are liking the Winter Shape Up workouts! Keep up the amazing work and update me with how you’re doing! I’ve already heard some awesome feedback from this week’s workout. Check it out, yo 😉
Today has been a chocolatey day.
It all started with this beast:
An ooey, gooey chocolate bfast cookie.
-1/2 cup multigrain oats
-1 smashed banana
-almond milk
-raw cacao powder
-1 T almond butter
-1/2 scoop vanilla Sun Warrior
-drizzle of the agave cacao syrup Katie sent me
I am a hardcore chocolate lover, and this was almost a little too much sweet for breakfast.
You never would have guessed from my mid-morning snack:
Bahah. More chocolate 😉
Guess lots of veggies are in my lunch future.
I also had a shot of “C”:
(Tip: when you use less water, it tastes WAY better)
And LOTS of tea.
(Thank you again to Celestial Seasonings for the sample!)
Whatever this weird ick is, I’m still fighting it 🙂
I spent the morning cleaning the casa then took these little monkeys to the vet.
Viesa had to get her bordatella, and Bella cowered in the corner the whole time even though she didn’t need to get anything today. They both got ice cream afterwards, though 😉
I’m about to take them for a walk, then meeting Jeni at the gym.
I told you guys that this week I’d let you know about the craziness that’s going on in my life (it’s all good stuff) so I thought I’d start with a little hint.
I’ll be wearing these again:
😉
Have a wonderful day and I’ll see you soon!
xoxo,
Gina

I’m such a fan of EmergenC! I swear that combined with a green juice or smoothie can be the perfect cold/flu/anything remedy.
Are you going to be chef at a restaurant???? Exciting!
Are you going back to culinary school? Hmmm cant wait to hear what it is. Im all ears when it comes to the word macaroons!!!
P.S. I want some tea 🙂
105degees part 2? Is it weird that I check your blog b4 my email & perezhilton? love it!
haha i feel so honored 😉
Fitnessista, what brand of chef’s clogs do you wear??? Yours look way comfier than me which are Klogs brand.
shoes for crews.. yes, they’re pretty comfy!
Ooooh I think that G$ is going to be back in the kitch soon!! How exciting – can’t wait to hear more details 🙂
I just saw your edit about the comments. Please don’t enter me in the giveaway – I don’t drink tea so I don’t want to take away someone else’s chances of winning. Thanks!!
Definitely being a chef at some restaurant.
Mmm I love tea. So comforting. And I LOVE the box with the dragon on it. So pretty.
this is one exciting giveaway! i love celestial seasonings, but my grad student budget doesn’t always allow for it. I’ve definitely been feeling bloated and in general unhappy with my digestion so I would LOVE to try the Tummy Mint!
I very much like tea and that bear is so cute!
You can NEVER have too much chocolate for breakfast ;).
love love love tea! esp during these winter months
haha i have no idea what those shoes go to, guess i’ll have to find out.
also, as a sidenote/question, my gym is closed because of the east coast snow. is there anything i can use besides weights and a stability ball to do the WSU in my apartment? i have textbooks and cans for the free weights, but i’m not totally sure i can replicate the ball, haha.
oh and um scratch that whittle my middle part, i got you and another amazing blog mixed up! 🙂
i love tea!! i wish i could have sugar cookie sleigh ride all year longgg!!
Is there a restaurant/carering company in your future?? Love love love Celestial Seasongings… I have a special place in my heart for their “mint magic” flavor. 🙂
Ooo cliffhanger!! Haha can’t wait to find out what’s going on! I did your Winter Shape-up workout today, it was great! Thanks so much!
i love tea! better for me than coffee for late night studying!
also i did the shoulder and chest workout for the intro to weights and when i did push-ups on the stability ball, my lower back really started to hurt. Is there something I’m doing wrong? Thanks Gina!
I’ve been sick for 3 weeks now! Sniffling, coughing, feeling like crap. Tea makes me feel better no matter what, so I’d be super excited to get any of it!!
Hm, those shoes remind of cooking classes 😀
hey Gina! I know this is totally random and unrelated but I would really appreciate any help you can give me! I saw you just did a 10 miler and that is awesome! 🙂 I am just getting back to running after recovering from an injury and I was wondering what pace you ran at for that 10 miler? do you recommend a certain time for runners starting back up again for the first few weeks? I used to run 8:00-8:30 min miles and now Im not sure what to run at…I know it should be slower, but what? like 9 min/mile?? Thanks so much!
hey ashley,
my pace for each mile is on that post: http://fitnessista.com/?p=5412
i’d say if you’re getting back into it, to start at lower mileage (4 or 5) and add some on each week to your long run
winter shape up #4 kicked my but this am. especially the second superset. renegade rows are especially difficult for me for some reason.
i cant wait to hear about your news, i have no idea what it is!
Chocolate and cookies, yum yum yum! And your doggies are just adorable!
