It feels so good to be back on a workout schedule. I started the latest Mamavation 2 Week Challenge and have to say I am sore. Not crazy bad sore, but sore nonetheless. We are doing more kickboxing type moves for the lower half and I am feeling it!! But that is where I need the most work is my lower half! Thanks to genetics and having 2 kids my hips have expanded.. haha
I did something to my knee on Thursday and not sure what I did, but my knee was killing me for two days so I have some workouts to catch up on. I am hoping I get through the next week of the 2 week challenge and see some results.
I have also begun a new weightloss protein shake routine. I will have more details on it later, but I do like the taste and the fact that it keeps me focused on my eating.
Our question this week is from The Chia Co:
What are your latest healthy food discoveries?
Lately, I have been looking more into protein shakes. I am not a big breakfast person, well let me rephrase that. I love breakfast foods, but rarely want to cook in the morning and I am not that creative with eggs. I try to eat cereal, but am not a big fan and it is hard to find ones that taste good and aren’t loaded with sugar. I really like just making shakes because I get the nutrients I need with fruit, protein and almond milk and it fills me up until lunch time.

Protein shakes huh? Not a big fan though i have tried them. Let me know which ones u use maybe ill try that. 🙂 have a great week. I hear u on the sorness of the body my body is feeling it too. on top of the 2weekchallenge i am doing the mamavation hazing. im loving it but feeling it too.
The challenge has been tough, and I am just plain lucky that I came out of it with just a bump on the head. I feel fantastic though, and can't wait to have week 2 behind me. I too am working on a shake, it saved by butt this week giving me the fuel to get through. Good luck working through week 2 with your knee, and don't feel badly if you need to modify.
This kickboxing moves have been a lot of fun for me. My DD thinks it's funny to try and copy me, she also adds sound effects which make them seem less grueling lol! <br /><br />I use to drink a lot of protein shakes, I've gotten away from them since the ones I really liked had fake colors Red# whatever in them and those give me migraines. If you find any good ones without all that kind of
I am not big on shakes and I am not the greatest cook. Breakfast has a lot of options and not all of them include cooking. How about a toast, almond butter and 1/2 banana?
