I’m going to a cookie exchange party today and I know it’s going to be tough but I’m going to let myself enjoy a few things. That is why I am getting my butt to the gym so early in the morning on a Saturday. :)

Used an avocado in my smoothie for the first time today. I was hesitant but wow that is delicious. Mixed up with a banana and some strawberries and a splash of milk, I will definitely be buying more of these in the future.
It’s super awful outside with the snow and sleet and rain and I’m warm and cozy but I should get my ass to the gym. Get some cardio in. I’ve eaten so well all week and stuck with my calorie goals but I haven’t been to the gym since getting back to school…
Time to brave the great Canadian north and trek to campus…
Must try this.Blender-Free Strawberry Banana Sorbet
- 1 medium Banana
- 4 medium Strawberries
While still in peel, lightly roll banana on counter top to soften it up. Cut one end of banana off and carefully squeeze contents into a plastic sandwich bag. Cut up 4 strawberries, removing leaves, and place in bag. Close bag and squish contents until contents are mixed to your liking. Cut corner off of bag and squeeze into a freezer-safe container (I like to use a rinsed out small Chobani yogurt cup). Cover with saran wrap and a rubber band. Put in freezer and wait for contents to firm. Enjoy.

So proud of myself for NOT giving into the temptation of fries and bread at dinner tonight. Swiss Chalet has a healthy option menu with skinless chicken breast.
AND my housemates and I made the healthiest choices today when we went grocery shopping. Our fridge is packed with veggies and fruits. We’re going to try our hand at some vegetarian meals. I love how we’re being supportive of each other’s health goals - weight loss, sticking to a vegetarian diet, minimizing carbs. Regardless of what we’re all trying to do we’re making it work! Go us. Healthy college students. The best.
I’m so positive today!
