Leg Workout and Paleo Almond Butter Banana Muffins
I hope you all enjoyed your weekend I know we did! Saturday I did legs and while it might not seem like a lot – it kills! Then we went for a hike on Camelback mountain (we always do Echo Canyon which is the ‘harder’ side) the weather was soooo nice – I am thrilled it is finally below 100! AND spent sometime outside with the bugs Yesterday during football I wanted to try to make some paleo protein muffins and I have to say I think these were a success. BUT BE WARNED: I do not like sweeteners so if you usually cook with some form of sweetener (or vanilla extract) I would add it because you might find this to be not sweet enough for...
Read Morepresents from everywhere! (LiveFit 72/73/74)
Unfortunately I won’t be back for a WIAW for a few more weeks – probably the last week of March – mostly because my eats are boring and also because I keep forgetting to takes pics of it – oops! So in the last week I have been receiving all kinds of goodies from a variety of places and I keep wanting to share and then I keep getting busy – so here we go! First I got my goodies from Firedaughter - she is amazing and her clothes are super cute and comfty. I am OBSESSED. THEN I got one of my prizes from Get Fit Naturally – my Gym Girl gloves they aren’t too girly – which is great for me and they are super comfy. I really...
Read Moreclean sweet and sour pork (LiveFit 58)
So last week I bought pork (besides bacon) for the first time and make the slow cooker bar-b-que pork recipe I posted. I also made this sweet and sour pork recipe from Clean Eating. I have to say because I am not a fan of soy sauce, this was not my favorite, but it was a big hit with the Fatkid. He had it over brown rice for dinner. It was super easy and quick to make and he liked it cold for lunch the next day too. Ingredients: 1 lb top pork loin cut into squares 1 sweet onion sliced in rounds 1 tbsp evoo Sauce: 2 tbsp Braggs’s Amino Acids 2 small oranges juiced and zested The original recipe also had: 1 green apple diced 1 lb sweet potato diced But I...
Read Moregood morning :)
Good morning everyone!! I got some great news last night so today is definitely a great one. Lets start with goals: I am thankful…that taking better care of myself reflected in my school progress second semester. (I realize this might sound a little selfish but hear me out). That I was taught healthy eating at a young age so that I wasn’t trying to start from scratch when I really decided to commit to it. For my legs – they allow me to do so much and I feel that often people without physical challenges take their ability to move/walk/dance/run for granted. Just remember that next time you don’t want to go running/do yoga/weight lift/swim/walk...

Keeping up with my goals for the week: I am thankful for: my grandma and grandpa who never took anything for granted and even without her my grandpa is still go grateful for everything he has in his life. the opportunities I have been able to have, like going back to law school. my parents – for teaching me too many lessons to list I also got up early and did both the Amazing Abs and the Burpees are Forever workouts from BodyRockTV. I am loving their short intervals to start my day out. I have mentioned a while ago that Skinny-Fatkids will be moving soon to its own webpage with a few changes. I am super excited about it but if I am not posting as...
Read Moretreadmill incline intervals
Last night after lifting back and shoulders I decided to do some cardio and randomly had alot of extra energy. I have been trying to do the treadmill lately because I never used to run/jog, etc. and I feel like it is good to try something new for a while. Because of my knee I almost never run outside and I also cannot run for long period of time. This interval routine is perfect because it works my legs and gets my heart rate up but still feels really do-able for me. I actually enjoyed it – weird. Set Treadmill to Speed Intervals – Jog speed 3.6 mph and Run speed 6.3 mph.Start at an incline of 2.0-4:00 – jog incline of 2 (it’s really a brisk...
