Good morning and happy Monday, friends! Do you feel well rested considering the extra hour of sleep we got this morning? I sure do. I am going to try to get up early on days I don’t necessarily have to so I can make this a habit for when my body fully adjusts to this time change. I’ve been struggling at getting up in the morning!
This weekend was a great one – a perfect mix of socializing with friends and relaxation. On Friday, I had a terrible headache and just felt blah so I spent the evening resting and watching Netflix.
On Saturday, I went to an 8am yoga class at Yoga One. I just love love love this studio so much.
For the rest of the day, I watched my friend’s mini frenchie, Gigi, so we took a couple of extra walks to enjoy the beautiful day. That night, my friend Meig hosted an epic Friendsgiving with the most amazing food + drinks and great company.
Sunday consisted of a MADabolic workout with the roommate, a grocery store run, a deep cleaning of the apartment, and Zootopia. Zootopia was such a cute movie- I’d recommend it to anyone. Overall, it was a wonderful, peaceful weekend.
Now, on to the eats and the workouts! I recently have been in a cooking slump, but I am slowly coming out of it. My goal for this week is to try 2 new recipes, which will happen tonight and Thursday. Meal planning felt so good to do this weekend!

Monday– Circuit Training class at Metro, teaching Boot Camp and Abs classes
Tuesday– Teach Cardio Strength + Boot Camp, taking class at HSM Core
Wednesday– Teaching Pilates Sculpt class, taking hot yoga
Thursday– Teaching Cardio Pump

This workout plan is pretty feasible for me. I think having yoga in the middle of my (busy) week will be perfect for my body and mind.
Your turn!
Do you ever go through meal planning “slumps”?
What’s something you’ve planned to make this week?
Any workouts scheduled in the next couple of days?
Do you and your friends do a Friendsgiving?

November 7, 2016 at 12:18 PMYesss I’m currently in a meal planning slump right now! I’ve been gone/traveling so much that our fridge looks terribly sad and empty so we’ve been slacking on cooking. Hoping that I can get out of it like asap though:) Have a great Monday!
