Workin for the Weekend

Most of you in the Blog World like to celebrate Cookie Friday.  So I thought I’d change things up just a little bit and observe Cake Friday.  Okk, well Clif Bar cake anyway.

Here’s the before photo of my taco salad.

Shake, shake, shake…  And after!  Spinach, cucumbers, corn, sprouts, ground turkey, cheddar cheese, Ranch dressing, and salsa!

I went to the gym not long after eating so I knew running was out of the question.  I used the Cybex for 20 minutes of good cardio and then did some knee ups using that “chair w/ no seat” machine at the gym so I was holding myself up with my forearms and really working my belly muscles.  I sat in the sauna for 12 minutes and then my gym time was done.

I needed more sweet treats to make it through my Friday.  I broke into the goodie bag I grabbed from Mint Julep last night.

This Dove chocolate included a holiday tip from Martha Stewart!

I really enjoyed the Peppermint Hershey Kisses and ate 3…though 2 escaped being photographed.

Late afternoon and I was about to peel my Clementine until I found some chocolate goodness in the kitchen.

When I got home from work, I helped Miles get into the Christmas spirit.

I’m trying to wait to eat dinner and I needed a snack.  More chocolate!  At least this VitaMuffin was only 100 calories, and trust me, it was MUCH more delicious than the brownie!

So are you still dying to know why I had a photo shoot this morning???

I am being featured in an interview on the blog Food Fitness Fashion and I needed to submit a photo.  I had a lot of fun answering Ali’s questions…thanks again for asking me to participate!
