A little over a week ago, I had my first ACAI smoothie bowl. It was nothing short of amazing! But at $10 a pop, I knew it wasn't something I was going to be adding to my routine often. I began researching some of the ingredients and found most in my grocery store and bought a few last weekend. I did not, however, buy the smoothie packets that you would use as the base. Well, Monday, I saw a fellow coach make a smoothie bowl with Shakeology and I thought, "why didn't I think of that?!!" So even though it was cold, I was craving one again and NOW, all the ingredients were available to me. I literally threw it together in about two minutes and that included time to cut the banana.  You can use this as an inspiration and go wild with infinite amount of options so you don't get bored with it. And while I couldn't blend the smoothie itself this time, I will be trying it blended too and I'll let you know which is better.  Shakeo Smoothie Bowl: -

So I know you've heard the saying, "never miss a Monday!" It,  for many who workout, is to motivate them and get their week started off right.  Most of the time Sunday is my rest day, but this past weekend, I got in two very challenging workouts. Saturday, while the boys went to watch the Monster Jam show in our local area, I went off with the girls to get spray tanned (they were free, who can say no to that!!).  Then we went to do a little shopping.  It was some really great "me" time where I could socialize with my friends too.  In the evening, my mother-in-law invited me to a free Zumba-thon (um...again, free-- who can say "no" to that!!).  I had been to a few Zumba classes with her around my neighborhood, but nothing could prepare me for this lol!!  It was 75 minutes of full out, song after song, energy filled dancing.  There were three instructors and they rotated every song with no breaks and my toes were numb by the end of the third song.
