Good morning and Happy Friday <3
Cup of dunkin donut strawberry shortcake coffee in my heart mug to start the day
Breakfast was enjoyed quesadilla style with protein filling.
Protein Frosting Filled Quesadillas
Whole wheat pita bread cut into 4 triangles, toasted, and then fill with protein frosting. Top with a drizzle of melted peanut butter or almond butter.
I like this style of breakfast, and I ate it in about 5 minutes! Protein frosting oozing out, yum
I needed to eat early, since I have yoga at 8:30 and need to be digested for it. Hot yoga on a full belly a no no! I like to eat 2 hours before yoga, a protein filled meal, and it works for me.
Speaking of YOGA, I really have found myself loving it even more than I ever have the past couple months.
Why?
Yup that is why
Besides feeling damn good, it has made my body stronger and my core stronger, which I am liking!
Yoga really is an amazing practice, and it works your whole body and is also great for the mind and soul.
I practice a power vinyasa flow that is in a heated room and I love it. I go about 2-3 times a week and look forward to it every time, each time I get on my mat, its a challenge and I love it. I love the results it has given me too. If you never tried yoga and are thinking about it, you should! I challenge you to!
Im off to yoga, so I have to run! I hope everyone is ready for the weekend!

Have you ever practiced yoga?
If not, would you do yoga?
A quote on yoga….
I mean the whole thing about meditation and yoga is about connecting to the higher part of yourself, and then seeing that every living thing is connected in some way.

i actually don’t like regular yoga (or maybe i just haven’t found a class/instructor that i love) but i do love bikram yoga! and you’re right.. it IS always a challenge… 90 minutes of sweating, dripping, stretching, muscles building!!
Yes, a challenge everytime! I died today, was so hot and sore, lol!
I recently started adding in more yoga–my body feels amazing after every session.
Same here! Im glad you are enjoying yoga too!
I do like hot yoga – but regular yoga is awkward for me. I need to feel like I got a good sweat out of it! I’ve yet to find somewhere in Hoboken that is reasonably priced..
Yeah, I know what yo mean, I love hot yoga even more because of the sweat! I hope you find a place!
Is hot yoga the same as Bikram? I want to try it but I don’t think I could be in a class for 90 minutes! I’d love to hear if they are different in any way. Thanks!
Marla, the heated vinyasa power class I take is in a 95 degree room and for 60 minutes, its great! You should look into that, Bikram is longer and a higher temperature setting!
Thanks, Katie!!!! I’m going to look for that.
Love that mug! I looooove Bikram yoga. It is seriously amazing and I always felt damn good afterwards
Thanks girl! Oh yes, Bikram is great too!
I LOOOOOVE that mug!! I think I need it. Where did you get it????
I got it at target! They had another one too, little different but with hearts too!
I wish I liked yoga as much as you, I really really do!! It kinda makes me sad bc I see how much other people enjoy it and I just.don’t.get.it. I have been to 3 classes, at 2 diff gyms, and still nothing.
HELP
Oh my! Well it just might not be your thing then, for some peeps its just not ; ) Have you tried the hot yoga? You might like that, its more intense!
I love yoga! I’m just getting back into it after a long break, I missed it so much!
I bet it feels extra amazing too! Happy Weekend!
I absolutely love practicing yoga and love the way it makes me feel and look. I get bored with workouts easily though, so recently I have been exploring Zumba and pilates.
It really is great, and so is pilates! I love that as well! Happy Weekend Stephanie!
That coffee sounds amazing. I love the mug too.
I love yoga and used to practice all the time but now I only do once every week or two. I need to get back into it because it makes my muscles so happy.
It makes my muscles happy too, and makes me stay sane when needed, haha!
Look at those abs!
You go girl! I’ve tried yoga & I really like it!!! I love how tough it is throughout and then how relaxing it is in the end. I have yet to try HOT yoga though, but I’m super eager to try it someday!
Thanks girl! Yes, hot yoga is my favorite! You should try it someday after the baby comes ; )
Happy Friday! xoxo <3
Hawt core little lady
I think I could take some of those abs right now!
I doooo love yoga, but haven’t taken the time to incorporate it as I feel like i should just be doing weights to get chizzled like I want! LOL! I’m such a dude I swear
I love it for my mind and body though and used to go 4 times a week and had AMAZING results….why on earth haven’t I been doing it?! LOL
xxoo
Yoga is amazing! You should start it again for sure!
Happy Weekend! <3
Oh my gosh! I love that mug! It is super cute! Where did you get it from? Target?
I’m jealous of your abs!!
YES! You called it, target!
Love ya girl! Happy Weekend!!
I’m not a huge yoga fan, or a fan at all, but I used to be! I prefer more sweaty workouts, so maybe I should try hot yoga one of these days!
You would love the hot yoga, especially vinyasa flow hot yoga!
Sign me up for your abs! I love hot yoga too but I like to get an all-rounded yoga experience so I always go to different ones, from hatha to vinyasa to anusara-inspired, to yin to hot…anything and everything! In winter though, hot is my best friend
. I tend to take a break from it in summer.
DANG GIRL! YO LOOKIN’ GOOOOOOD!
I do yoga once in a blue moon, but I like pilates!
I have yet to try hot yoga – but I would LOVE to! Guess I should find a studio near me.
Hope you have a wonderful Friday!
I love how you wrote its good for your body and soul…so true!! your abs are amazing- hard work pays off! Very inspiring
have a great weekend!
Nice abs girl! I love yoga. I do hot yoga once a week as a nice change from all my weights and cardio. It’s really good for the mind <3
love yoga and we are excited to really get back into this year. with all the stress in our life we need to turn to yoga more! and it is a big goal for us in 2012 is to do more yoga then ever before
because we also feel damn good after doing it!
Love that mug (the first picture!)
