Yesterday Ryan and I were discussing how each day of the week feels. Here’s my rating (5 stars is the best):
- Monday: **
- Tuesday: *
- Wednesday: ***
- Thursday: ****
- Friday: *****
- Saturday: *****
- Sunday: ****
Yes, I actually ranked Tuesdays worse than Mondays… I always feel fresh on Mondays and then Tuesday is when the “blah” feeling kicks in. Thankfully it’s all up from there! 🙂
What is your favorite day of the week?
I am inclined to say Saturday, but honestly I’ve always loved Fridays. Even though I have to go to work, everyone is generally in a good mood and I love the excitement and anticipation of a fun weekend ahead.
Workout
Today’s cardio workout was a goodie!
I followed a 25 minute treadmill workout I clipped out of Oxygen Magazine a few months ago.
I made a couple of modifications, like only bringing the incline down to one, not zero, and warming up/cooling down at a 4.0 pace rather than a 3.5 pace.
After the 25 minute treadmill fun, I walked for another 10 minutes on an incline before finishing up with 15 minutes on the elliptical.
Breakfast
Chocolate attack!
Today my breakfast was a bowl of chocolate goodness:
- Chocolate cream Flax-Z-Snax hot cereal
- All the Whey chocolate peanut butter cup protein powder
- Cocoa powder
As Dale from Doug would say, “Yum, yum, eat ’em up!” Yes, I did just reference a classic Nickelodeon show. Doug was the best!
Anne @ the doctor takes a wife says
I love Doug 🙂 Thursday’s my favorite day!! I get super excited for the weekend.
Jessica @ How Sweet says
I love Thursdays! That anticipation of Friday is just so exciting.
Anna says
lol– gotta love Doug Funny! My husband gets annoyed with me because I sing a song from The Beets sometimes 🙂 What kind of vegetarian would I be if I didn’t sing “Killer Tofu” every once in a while?
Maura says
Wow- I haven’t thought about Doug in so long. What a great show! Patty Mayonaise was definitely my favorite! Although, Skeeter was a hoot. Anyway, my favorite day of the week is definitely Sunday! It is always so relaxing 🙂
Katie@ Two Lives, One Lifestyle says
I completely agree with the days of the week- Tuesday is the WORST! And Doug is great.
Kelly says
Oh I loved Doug!! I also was a huge Rugrats fan! 🙂
Alison says
I love how you & Ryan did your weekly ratings! So cute & creative! I used to pick Saturdays as my favorite day of the week, but now I think I prefer the weekdays because I stick to a routine and have more to do. My least favorite day of the week is Monday…iiiick!
Love your reference to “Doug”! Nickelodeon was great back in the day. My favorite show was Rugrats!!

Doug was definitely the best. I was actually thinking about that “drumming on a trash can” song the other day…

“playin’ on my banjo… singin’ in the moonlight!”
Nicole (dishin') says
I think I’m with you on Fridays….Friday’s feel good!
Speaking of Doug, I went to high school with a kid who looked just like him and everyone alwasy commented on it. It’s funny to see now since Doug appears to be nearly bald and this kid was not. LOL
Jessica @ Fit Chick Wannabe says
First of all, I LOVE DOUG. lol The voicemail message on my cell phone is my sister and I singing the theme song.
My favorite day of the week is def Saturday. I can sleep as long as I want in the morning and I can stay up as late as I want at night. Although I never sleep late in the morning anyway – I’m an early riser. But I could, if I wanted to! And Saturday is the only day I am not thinking about work at all, which is wonderful 🙂
peanutbutterfingers says
You are officially awesome!
Samantha Angela @ Bikini Birthday says
Haha, I LOVE DOUG FUNNIE
Mary says
Where do you get your pb whey protein?
peanutbutterfingers says
I order it online at Nutraplanet.com. My favorite brand is All the Whey. YUM.
Kyla says
Definitely love friday and saturdays. Everyone seems so much more relaxed as they know tomorrow is a day off. Monday (even maybe tuesday) not my fav:(
Great work out and just peeked at your lunch…looks yummy.
any plans for the weekend?
peanutbutterfingers says
Wedding dress shopping & a chili cook off! I can’t wait! :o) Fridays & Saturdays are the best, I agree!
Lauren says
Ha! I think the only wasted day of the week is Wednesday. Seriously…what IS that? It’s like the week can’t figure out if it’s over or starting….
