CheeriOverload

Happy Monday!

I think it’s safe to say that I’m one Peanut Butter Cheerio from becoming one myself. As predicted, I bee-lined it straight to the grocery store after what seemed like the longest school day ever to get the suckers… mannnn are they good. But SO ADDICTIVE and crazy filling. No joke… hours later and I can still feel them in my stomach…

I was literally in a Cheerio-coma after and found myself curled up in a ball napping through my usual workout time because of it. Luckily I scrounged up a little motivation and went to the gym at around 7…I was actually surprised I even moved off the couch. Knowing I would not be able to run because of my little PBC (trying out some new lingo?) overdose, I decided today would be a good cross training day and hit the bike and elliptical. I left feeling so much better. Pretty decent workout considering the circumstances? I’d say so. At least that sickly full feeling is starting to die down thanks to my little workout and plenty of water.

But aside from the little overdose issue, I really liked them. They’re delish in milk (soy of course, gotta love the lactose intolerance) or just by the handful…and handful…and handful. I think my next victim will either be the dulce de leche ones or banana nut… yummm.

I also picked up some Chobani Champoins (along with a few random regular Chobanis of course) and I’m so so so excited to try them! I got the chocolate chunk flavor and am planning on having it for a post-run snack tomorrow? We’ll see. I’ll keep you all posed on those! :)

So that’s two of 6 things off the “things I’m dying to try list” and so far, so good!

Any new goodies that you love lately?

XOXO,

PS. I found some great recipe ideas in the gym mags today that I can’t wait to try! (and by try I mean pretend that I’m following the recipe but actually end up doing my own thing which may or may not turn out edible?) Keep an eye out! :)

Sunday’s 6 things I’ve been dying to try!

Holaaaa! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! Mine was so relaxing… just what I needed!

I’m ALWAYS seeing things that I absolutely need to try on my favorite blogs, in the stores, on tv, etc. Because I love my lists (yes, I’m that girl…) I thought I’d bring them all together… here we goooo!

Peanut Butter Cheerios. My mouth waters at the thought of them… every time I see them I want them more and more. Chances are I’ll have them by the end of the week tomorrow.

Eos hand lotion. I’m obsessed with Eos chapstick (or should I say chap-egg?) and have a really good feeling I’d be just as in love with this. I just can’t find it anywhere!

Protein pancakes. I could drool over Bess’s protein pancakes from the Tone It Up program! They look SO delicious and are so nutritious, I need to try these pronto! :)

Sunflower Seed Butter. I’ve been making an effort to mix up my nut butters lately. So far so good! I’ve heard great things about sunflower seed butter so I think this is next on my experimentation list!

Chobani Champions. Not only do I think that these are the cutest things to hit the dairy section but they look SO good! (Yes, I know that they’re intended for little kids and I’m 100% okay with that). With flavors like chocolate chunk, honey-nana, and orange vanilla…how could I possibly resist?

 

Spinning. I feel like I’d die during a class but would have the best time leading up to my death. I think the intensity of the classes draws me to them and I’ve heard from so many people that they were hooked after just one session! It for sure has to make my list of things to do.

What are some things that you have been dying to try? Any overlaps? :)

Hope everyone has a great week!

XOXO,

Caroline
