Ryan and I hit the ground running this morning!
My workout totally flew by because all I was thinking was, “Get in, get out, get to HOTLANTA!” Atlanta here we cooome!
Our time at the gym began with 20 minutes of cardio. I completed this 20-minute treadmill workout:
Minutes | Incline | Speed |
0 – 4 | 8.0 | 4.0 |
4 – 5 | 2.0 | 4.0 |
5 – 15 | 2.0 | Alternate 8.0 for one minute, 4.0 for one minute |
15 – 20 | 2.5 | Alternate 8.0 for one minute, 4.0 for one minute |
Once I was nice and warm, I headed into the weight room to complete a total body weights routine very similar to this one.
And then it was time to get crack-a-lackin’.
Since I detest packing, I packed half of my clothes last night and threw together my remaining outfits, toiletries and accessories this morning. Let’s hope I remembered everything… like my underwear.
Breakfast
Breakfast this morning included his and hers smoothies – to go! We served them up in solo cups (ah, college memories…) and I’m inhaling mine as I type and plan to take it on the road with me in un momento.
In the mix:
- 1 c. milk
- 1 1/2 frozen banana
- 1 c. strawberry banana Greek yogurt
- 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
Loved this smoothie! It was very ice-creamy.
Hit the Road, Jack
Now that our bags are fully packed…
And we have adequate entertainment in tow…
(All Ryan’s choices. Don’t make fun of my love for Babe.)
… I think we’re ready!
I’m out, girl scout! Stay tuned for an afternoon guest post from one of my all-time favorite bloggers. See ya later… from Georgia!
P.S. The Fashion page was updated!

I was in LOVE with them as a couple. I thought they were so cute!
Dani says
So, if I can’t run at a 8.0 speed, do you think doing 6.0 or 6.5 would be effective as well? Thanks 🙂
Enjoy your trip!!

Ooh, have fun in Atlanta! I actually used to live in Alabama back when I was in elementary school (I live in Colorado now), and going to Atlanta was the coolest/funnest/hippest thing to do! Have fun, say hi to the whale sharks for me! ;-D

Haha omg I thought I was the only one that still watched and loves Newlyweds!! That’s pretty impressive Ryan enjoys it too, but hubby wouldn’t so much 😉
Btw, I wanted to let you know that inspiration from you, Courtney at Sweet Tooth Sweet Life and many other bloggers, inspired me to start a blog! I’ve been reading blogs for about 3 years now and I don’t know why it’s taken me so long….I love it so far and I’m really enjoying this new hobby of mine, thanks Julie! 🙂

Alisa @ Running with Knives says
I’m obsessed with Babe! Ever since it first came out, I’ve loved it. And now that I have a dog that’s part Border Collie, I love it even more.
I even have my coworkers say “That’ll do pig. That’ll do.” in normal conversations.
Erin says
I recently was cleaning out my room and found my season of Newlyweds!! I watched it and it made me sad because how cute they use to be!! Don’t you wish they were still together?? They provide so much entertainment!
Julie says
I heart Babe too!! “A tragic day, hehehehehhe”
Kate says
I think I am going to have to bring out my Newlyweds DVD tomorrow, haven’t watched for ages, gosh I wish they were still together! Ooh and I just froze my first banana to make your smoothie in the morning, can’t wait to try it 🙂
Carly @ Cooking With Carly says
I am so happy to see that I’m not the only one still hanging on to the Nick & Jessica era. I still secretly pray they will reunite!
Allie says
I thought I was the only one who still had a soft spot for newlyweds! Can you believe Nick’s redoing it w/his new wife-to-be?
