First Fashion Giveaway

by 1,942 Comments

Something occurred in the gym today that’s never occurred before.

I fell asleep.

The weirdest thing is that I awoke this morning feeling completely rested. Ryan and I were up late talking about a lot of potential changes in our lives, and this morning when the alarm went off, I felt like I woke up deep in thought and ready to tackle the world! 

After 25 minutes of cardio on the treadmill (I did this workout), I decided to forgo my initial plans of completing a total of 50 minutes of cardio in favor of taking a yoga class.

The class was relaxing. It wasn’t too hard and I didn’t really sweat. I simply stretched my body and relaxed my mind, which felt great.

At the end of the class when we were laying in savasana, my mind wandered and I actually dozed off! Since I wasn’t feeling tired at all this morning, I can only guess that I fell asleep because my mind was finally at peace after it had been running non-stop last night. I think I was only asleep for a minute or two, but I awoke totally shocked that I actually managed to fall asleep. I never thought that would happen!

Breakfast

After yoga, a quick walk with Sadie and a fast shower, I was ready for breakfast!

On the menu this morning: Strawberry ice cream!

Okay, not really, but it was smooth, cold, thick and creamy. Plus, it was a heck of a lot healthier than ice cream, making it a perfectly wonderful way to start my day.

I made my strawberry “ice cream” by first blending one cup of frozen strawberries with a tiny splash of almond milk in the Vitamix. (I’m tellin’ ya, this blender is a champ!) I then added one 6-ounce container of plain Greek yogurt and a tablespoon of honey to the mix and blended away.

I was really impressed with this concoction! I topped my “ice cream” with strawberry and apple cereal puffs and chia seeds and dug in!

I gobbled this up like it was goin’ out of style!

Speaking of style…

Stella & Dot Giveaway

And now for an exciting moment on PBF… My first ever fashion-related giveaway!

A couple of weeks ago, Lori, a Stella & Dot stylist, reached out to me about offering a giveaway to PBF readers to win an amazing Stella & Dot necklace.

Stella & Dot makes absolutely gorgeous statement jewelry as well as elegant, classic pieces. When she first sent me her website, I was sick in a hotel room and spent a good hour looking through everything creating a wish-list in my head.

I was fortunate enough to receive the beautiful turquoise necklace I wore on Friday from Lori.

    I would wear #3. The jewelry is beautiful and I just have to say that your blog has inspired me to finally get in shape! I’ve always been thin so working out was never really on the game plan…I HATED cardio and I always figured that since I was thin without working out, who needed it?! Now I travel for my job and after hours in a car, I crave my hotel’s treadmill. I feel better about myself than I have in years. Even though the physical shape of my body hasn’t changed, I know the wellness of it has. And yep, you got me addicted to smoothies for breakfast, too! Too bad hotel rooms don’t come with blenders 🙁

    I love # 3, and #1. It’s a tough decision. However, don’t you think that is is crazy that it is only 9:50 in Texas and you’ve already got 779 comments? Way to go pbfingers!

    I need a vitamix! My blender barely does anything and have to stir it like 4 times before it blends completely|!
    I love the 3rd one!
