Vegetarian Update

Now that I've been on this Vegetarian thing for quite a while I've been testing out my luck with numerous Boca and Morning Star products.

If you have no idea what I'm talking about I'll fill you in. Both of these brands produce Vegetarian products that are alternatives to meat items.

Since being on my journey I have tried two of many products Boca chipotle black bean burgers & morning star chicken strips.

My take exactly Yay for the bean burgers and heck no for those chicken strips. The bean burgers were super tasty and filled with lots of flavor; definite plus in my book. The chicken strips ahhh not so much. I'm thinking this particular consistency is just not one I particularly am found of and have to say I pass.

But I am really came to tell you all the wonderful yummies I discovered yesterday. Well I just tell you about one of them.

I found these awesome chikn nuggets and they were pretty darn good. They tasted just like chicken nuggets only thing is they had a sweet taste to them. I was cool with it, hey I can't expect it to be exactly like chicken nuggets.


I never believe these things are actually not meat!! So I have to look at the ingredients like a million times. Haha



Oh and I topped it off with the Annie's Organic Macaroni !! The artistic side of me wanted bunnies..don't judge lol.

Hot Body

So I recently signed up for Bikram Yoga...It was pretty nerve wrecking to actually go ahead and take the class but I knew it was something I had to try out ("Try something you fear" kept running through my head). So I got to it and tried it out. Most yoga spots have a new member fee where you can get some added bonus, so I opted for the new member unlimited for a week. It felt pretty good to be prepared on my first day.

Now the actual session!! I went into the heated room and was like damn WTF did I sign myself up for. HAHA; but I went back in and waited for the instructor to enter. It was a really small class of myself and 4 others, which I loved. The instructor was really nice and he was a big help during my time there. Once we got started the sweat started rolling, I was feeling the burn. It was really good to know that I was able to remain in the room and I did my best. Though, I felt a bit dizzy at times, sort of like I was going to pass out, or just not able to do a position, I rode out like a champ.

When I left I was like to hell with that this is too much, then the little voice in my head began to speak "If you don't come back you would have wasted your money, and you'd be a quitter". I just couldn't do that could I. A day later and a body well aching I will be heading back tomorrow for sure. Have to get my moneys worth right.


Will definitely keep you updated on my Bikram classes until the membership runs out...
