Hi all!
I had such a great productive day today!
Woke up, ate a pumpkin coconut flour POWERCAKE
with roasted veggies and coconut oil.
& coff, duh.
When I heated up the coconut oil in the microwave,
it ended up looking like a heart!
Thought it was cute so I wanted to share!
Speaking of Coconut Oil
(my favorite thing on this planet)
I posted some facts about it today on INSTAGRAM!
& I also shared my coupon code for $5 off your first order @ Iherb.com !
Then I hit the gym with MamaCakes! (my mom)
We did an awesome work out yesterday & today that I want to share!
It’s great to have a mom who is a personal trainer
because we do have the same passion for fitness & health!
We also like to challenge each other in the gym &
have some “friendly competitions”.
So yesterday, we challenged eachother to a
POWER SLAM THROWDOWN!
Now I have to say, I did hit myself in the face in the beginning &
it took me a while to get my mojo back!
But my mom, was a MACHINE!
she honestly didn’t even flinch ONCE! haha I LOVE IT!
THROWDOWN;
& The break down of the actual POWERSLAM
FINAL SCORE:
Kasey – 37
Mamacakes – 41
yup, she beat me. But I’m going to challenge her to
another competition soon to redeem myself!
After the gym, I went spent all of my money grocery shopping!
First I hit up Trader Joes, then a local health food store
to get some more goodies that I have been wanting to try!
On today’s trip I got
some great CLEAN EATS:
I picked up some Mediterranean Chicken breasts for my parents
& some bacon & lean turkey meat for ME!
Raw Pepitas, Sunflower seeds, & lots of VEGGIES!
Eggs, Greek Yogurt, coconut oil for a friend, Avocados, yams,
& some wild smoked Salmon that I can’t wait to try!
Thanks to Jill Hanner –my fellow FitFluential family member
& Instagram follower,
she got me hooked on GOAT CHEESE! YUM!
I got some Garlic & Herb goat cheese & some Mediterranean Feta as well!
Canned Wild Pink Salmon is one of my FAVORITE things to have
in my pantry. I LOVE it on Salads!
Ahi Tuna – Can’t wait to make this!
& these steaks were HUGE for like $6 dollars!!
Then I hit up a local place to grab some other items:
Kevita probiotic drink & Apple Cider Vinegar Drink (it is SO amazing)
& some Coconut Milk Creamer that I’ve been DYING to try!
Can’t wait for coffee in the morning!
Picked up some seaweed sheets –
I’ll be sharing what I do with these!
Got some Tahini butter that I plan on having on
Frozen Greek Yogurt!
Also got some miracle rice –
love this stuff. I buy it every now & then
whenever I make a good sauce!
Which I just did, so I’ll be sharing that too!
AND last but not least;
Falafapita – something new I saw in the freezer section !
I bought them once I saw the only ingredients were
Chickpeas & seasonings!
I plan on “frying” these up with some coconut oil!
I’d say I got some GREAT
CLEAN EATS today! Can’t wait to share the recipes I come up with!
Question:
Have you tried any of these products before?
Do you have a work out buddy that helps challenge you?
