Tri { color } and SIAB delish

by Healthy Diva on May 25, 2011

Afternoon! Did you enter my SunWarrior Protein Giveaway Yet? If not , enter , if you would like!

Seriously, SunWarrior and me are tight, BFF’s forever!

 

Sugar free Red Bull is also a good friend to me when I am in need, and today I needed a boost! Coffee didn’t even wake me up enough, so I had to call on the red bull  ;-)

 

It helped me, and I got a great workout in at the gym !

 

Thank you red bull! Thank you to me , for looking like a mess, lol!

I did 15 minutes warm up cardio on the elliptical and then followed it with some strength training moves

- Lat Pulldowns – 50 lbs 3 sets of 15

-  Tricep Pushdowns- 30 lbs 3 sets of 10

-  one arm cable extension 20 lbs 3 sets of 12

- overhead dumbbell extensions – 12 lb 3 sets of 12

Just a quick , sweet , and effective workout! Love those kind! I don’t rest in between either! Super Sets!

 

I came home to fuel my muscles with a  delish SIAB! Was amazing!

 

Seriously the GUMS are everything to make a smoothie so thick and amazing!

This is a Strawberry Banana Peanut Butter Smoothie!

  • 1 cup of almond milk
  • lots of ice!
  • frozen strawberries and banana pieces
  • stevia
  • 1 tbsp flaxseeds
  • 1 scoop of SunWarrior Vanilla Protein Powder
  • 1 tbsp of  Organic peanut buter
  • 1/4 tsp of xanathan and guar gums!

 

I loved this combo !

 

U know what else there is to love?! Have you ever done a Tri Color?

 

You take 3 nail polish colors, of similar color group , or whatever you like, I did pinks!

I chose Essie Secret Story, French Affair, and Mod Squad!

 

Paint your nails pretty with the 3 different colors, I love the way it looks! I am going to do this more often, its a fun way to make your nails pop!

Have you ever used 3 colors at once?

Have a beautiful day loves!

Katie xoxo

I’ve heard guar gum is good for you (made from natural ingredients) but xanthum gum is not because it’s made from petrochemicals. Know anything about that? I know that it’s “everything in moderation”… but I’m just curious on your thoughts!

I was just thinking about what color to paint my nails! I guess I don’t have to choose w/ a tricolor. Cute idea!

I’ve never done that with my nails, but what a cute idea! And I love Essie’s shades of pinks – so pretty!

love the tri color! I’ve never done that, but I like to paint a french mani in two shades of one color – light pink + darker pink, light “brown” + darker brown… that’s fun too! :)

SO much I love about this post! First off, you’re too adorable with the after workout flyaway hairs! I get those all the time, and they just crack me up. And the nails! I remember doing that when I was younger, but it’s been YEARS. Definitely gonna have to try that the next time I do my nails.
