NOVEMBER!

Well November is here.. My LEAST favorite month, well maybe except for today - I will take my extra hour of sleep! ... this picture can pretty much explain why ..
 
 
 
 
We go from colorful.. to dark and dreary..Bleh! Well that means lets set some goals..and crack this month out.. and the rest of the year. What are some of your goals?
 
Some of mine are:
  • Get SOME interviews
  • Enjoy the up coming holidays
  • Continue to lift heavier in the gym - BUILD BUILD
  • Yoga a few times a week
  • Have fun in the kitchen
 
 
So the last week I tried a lot of different recipes in the kitchen.. really spices things up - some of the different things I tried
 
Apple Cinnamon Chicken .. Recipe from one of my teammates Jessie, and it was so so good.. and so simple, just take chicken, spread with apple sauce and cinnamon bake it then add coconut oil!!
 
 
 
 
Pumpkin Muffins .. perfect little treat as well - and very simple!
Just take 1 cup pumpkin, 1 cup oat flour, 2 scoops protein powder, 4 egg whites, 1 teaspoon baking soda, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg - then baked 350 for 20 minutes!!
 
 
 
 Egg White, Oat, Banana Roll Up - Made up the name but it worked!  and it was delicious - perfect for fueling for the gym! you could use any fruit that you wanted..
Its just 1 cup egg whites, 1/4 cup oats, and a few slices of banana cooked and I rolled it up into a "breakfast burrito"
 

Chocolate Mug Cake - I was craving chocolate a few nights in a row and needed a healthy way to supplement it so I didn't cave into the halloween candy in the house! So I made a mug cake.. and it totally did the trick! 1 scoop protein powder - i used my chocolate, 1/4 cup almond milk, 1 egg white, 1 teaspoon baking soda. Mix and put in the microwave for a minute! totally works for the chocolate craving.

 


Those are just a few of the different things I had throughout the week, not sure what is planned for this week, but I am sure I will come up with something!

I am ready to start this full week in November - I have my new workouts from coach, can't wait to begin them tomorrow. I took a rest day Saturday which is SO important for your body, and I definitely needed it.. today I did my full body slaughter workout and tomorrow I am starting my new month workouts! Fresh start to the week!

Happy Sunday Everyone.. Lets go Pats!! :)
