Truth be told, after 9 hour work days + a workout + fixing dinner I typically have no desire to even open up a computer, but I do miss writing. I also feel that when I started this blog I wanted it to be more of a fashion related blog, and as I've grown into myself more I realize that I'm just not as interested in that as I thought I was. My passion is exercise and healthy eating, and I think it's time that I share more of that with the world! It's truly my favorite thing to do & talk about, and I would love to connect with more people in the healthy lifestyle community. So, with that being said, I'm going to try and start documenting more of my meals and more of my workouts. To get the ball rolling, I thought I would do a little survey I've seen on some other blogs!
1. What did you eat for breakfast?
Crockpot banana cinnamon steel cut oats with a dollop of peanut butter!
2. How much water do you drink per day?
I would say roughly 100oz/day..I usually drink more when I'm at work than when I'm not though.
3. What is your current favorite workout?
I have 2 ;) Torq Cycle & Owl Fitness Bootcamp--check them out if you are in ATL!
4. How many calories do you eat per day?
I don't really keep track anymore, but I used to eat ~1300 when I tracked it.
5. What are your favorite healthy snacks?
Sweet peppers w/ guacamole or hummus, apples w/ peanut butter & cinnamon, trail mix (I love the Sprouts California mix from the bulk bins)
6. What do you usually eat for lunch?
It varies a lot..I typically will take whatever is left over from dinner the night before, but this week I prepped a kale salad & I'm really enjoying it. Sooooo delicious. I'll include some pictures in a meal round up post soon :)
7. What is your favorite body part to strength train?
At the moment, arms

Not much..I would say the only place I really go is Chick fil A

14. How many hours of sleep do you get per night?
I average about 6.5-7, but am happiest when I have 7.5
15. Do you have a "cheat" day?
I don't really consider a day a cheat day or a meal a cheat meal. I practice the 80/20 rule :)
16. Do you drink alcohol?
That's a silly question
17. Do you have a workout buddy?
I don't always go with someone, but I have a few people (including Ben) that I go with from time to time.
18. What is the best thing that has changed about your life since committing to a healthy lifestyle?
I'm so much happier with myself and honestly feel much better than I did when I was younger. I committed to a healthy lifestyle my junior year of college, so I've been doing it for a while now, but I feel so much more confident and happy with myself. I've also made some awesome friends through it all, I truly look forward to working out each day, & I learned how to cook some killer meals!
19. What was the last healthy thing you did?
I made Ben and I a healthy dinner of zuchinni noodles, ground deer meat, and stewed tomatoes & okra
