As if being filmed in my orange sweatpants on Monday wasn’t bad enough, today Ryan and I were interviewed about the unbelievably cold weather in Orlando on our morning walk with Sadie.
Check out my ensemble.
I was wearing a sports bra, tank top, hoodie, fleece jacket and a regular winter coat… with two hoods and a beanie. I looked like an oompa loopa!
Even Sadie had double layers on this morning.
I’m sure that when the reporter saw me in my 80 layers and Ryan shivering with his hood up, she thought “Jackpot!” We definitely were the spitting image of freezing weather, I’ll say that much!
It was great to have Ryan’s company on our 2.5 mile walk because talking to him distracted me from the cold… until the wind started blowing. Brr!
We went on our walk after getting nice and sweaty at the gym.
I completed a 45-minute workout on the treadmill that looked a lot like my Lazy Girl Workout from Saturday. I changed up the end a bit to make it a little more challenging and incorporated five extra minutes of running. In the end my workout looked like this:
I trucked along to my new favorite Run, Run, Run Playlist. All of the upbeat songs lit a fire under my feat!
I then waited for Ryan to finish up and did 10 minutes on the elliptical before switching to the bike where I peddled to absolutely no resistance while reading blogs.
Ryan actually laughed when he saw me chillin’ on the bike, reading blogs and clearly wasting time. Fortunately that only lasted for about two minutes until he was ready to leave.
Breakfast
After our cold walk with Sadie and our run in with the news, we came home ready for a hot meal!
I made my new breakfast lover sandwich.
This is my favorite breakfast of the year! Yes, we’re only into the second week of the year, but this hot breakfast bagelwich is taking the lead.
The combination of the cinnamon raisin bagel with the muenster cheese and egg creates a party in your mouth.
If you make this, I promise you won’t be sorry. And if you are, let me know and I send you a picture of Sadie licking the camera to cheer you up. 😀
Time to work! Can you believe it’s already Thursday!?
Kristy @ KristyRuns says

Gabriela @ Une Vie Saine says

Salah (My Healthiest LIfestyle) says
YIKES!!!! haha you are so famous girl!
Stephanie says
Why WOULDN’T they want to feature a bundled beauty?! (Sadie….although you’re beautiful too!!) 🙂
Lisa says
Just found your blog yesterday on Fitnessita’s blog roll – I’m obsseded! You have so much good info on here – I already put a list of “preventing late night snacking to-dos” on my fridge.
Oh and that breakfast sandwich looks amazing.
Lisa says
obsessed** oops
Lauren says
awwwwwww that’s what I wanted for breakfast.. I wasn’t happy with my breakfast this morning.
Kristen @ That Hoosier Girl says
I laughed out loud when I saw that not only did you have layers…but SADIE had layers! Too cute!
Kathie says
hahaha! Yeah, I can see why the news reporter picked you … but really, it’s all about KEEPING WARM OUTSIDE in COLD TEMPS! I’d have looked just as layered up as you.
Jenn @ LiveWellFitNow says
I always look ridiculous when I bundle up! Staying warm is not a place to display fashion. Not if you actually really really want to be warm! 🙂
Brittany (A Healthy Slice of Life) says
haha, love that the news people love you!
I can’t believe it’s even cold in Florida! Did you know every state has snow on the ground right now except FL? Maybe you’re trying to play catch up 🙂
Hope says
That is awesome that you got on the news again! I can’t believe it’s even that cold in Florida. When I went to Disney World two years ago in December, it was freezing like this. Love that bagel sandwich. I’m going to have to try making it.
Stephanie @ The Cookie Battle says
I love egg and cheese sandwiches, quick, easy, nutritious, and delicious!
Ha, you must be wearing a sign that says “Interview me!”
Katie says
Girl the news just loves you! Why wouldn’t they ? : )
Love your coat! Cant believe its that cold there, I know it warms up though in the day right? Have a great day girl!
Chicago Cuisine Critique says
On the news twice in one week! You are famous (or something). 🙂 That breakfast sandwich looks delicious. Exactly what i’m craving this morning.
Becki says
Loving the look of that sandwich, especially on such a cold morning!
Marg says
How funny, bundled up on the news! Have you seen the clips?
peanutbutterfingers says
no – haha, i should check their website… though i may not want to see them! i probably have cold boogers or something.
Carrie says
ahahha thats so funny you got interviewed again! that’s certainly more than i’ve gotten in my..lifetime!
Caree @ Fit-Mama says
Wow, I have never been approached from a reporter before!!! you def have a calling! 🙂
Erin @ The Grass Skirt says
I think the news cameras are following you! 🙂
Allison@ Happy Tales says
Love all the layers! A tip to battle the cold on your walks… change your sports bra! It’ll make you super cold once your body temp cools down and the sports bra is still sweaty. But then again, if you do that, you might as well shower and change everything. So I guess it just depends on what you feel like doing!
soul + food says
you’re just a camera favorite!
Dani says
Julie you look so silly but in a good way. It looks like we stuck a person who never has seen snow in her life and put her in Antartica lol and this was the result!
My secrets for dressing warm is spandex under jeans and a long jacket over everything!
Look express is having a sale on their outwear (consider it an investment)

carlee says
haha! Its okay…you look beautiful no matter what! Too funny though! I always see people on my walks when I look my absolute worst.
I am totally going to try that cinnamon rasian and cheese and egg combo! Its sounds like a yummy sweet and savory trick in my mouth!
Amber K says
I swear the stationary bike at my gym is always where one person is wasting time while waiting for another. 😉
Maryann says
That breakfast looks delicious!
Natalie @ Will Jog For Food says
I Love the idea of a breakfast lover sanwich! Breakfast sandwiches are one of my fav things to eat. My fav is McGriddles, i’m bad 😉
vanessa says
We are having the same type of weather here in Tx. I find that long underwear makes a BIG difference in how much of the cold I feel. The top is never the problem because I always bundle up but the cold wind hitting my legs made the warmth go away.
Wearing just the bottoms keep me soo warm I actually enjoy my walks in the cold. Really works, you should try it.
Sarah says
Can’t believe noone said they ate your breakfast and they were sorry just to get a cute pic of Sadie licking the camera! I think I’m going to try this breakfast tomorrow though because it looks like it’d definitely hit the spot! So I’ll get back to ya 😉 Thanks for the idea!
Kaitlin With Honey says
You look so cold! I can’t say I miss the freezing temps…
Amy says
I made this sandwich for dinner today because I’ve been thinking about it since the first time I saw it on your blog- Amazing! I’m obsessed haha.
Leslie says
Hahaa so funny, Jul! Love your ensemble!
