Back In a Routine

Hi out there and Happy Monday!  So far my Monday has been FANTASTIC!  I woke up at 4:45am and got dressed to go to the gym and get in a good workout.  Usually it’s hard to wake up that early but this morning I was really looking forward to getting an early morning workout in, have a healthy smoothie for breakfast, and BLOGGING!  Hungry Hobby has become such an important part of my day, I truly miss it when I can’t put up posts, it’s like something was missing. Luckily, I’ve got my routine back and I’m super excited about it!

Breakfast

Today is the first day of D.TOX, I know my body needs its given all the horrible things I did to it while I studied for NASM.  I hadn’t heard the best things about Life Time’s Vegan Max so I wasn’t super excited for this mornings shake… until I tasted it!  Holy chocolate deliciousness… I can definitely do this every morning for the next 14 days no problem! (Upon inspection I realized I should have got the Vanilla Veganmax because the chocolate does have added sugar which is technically not detox friendly, however that’s what we bought so I’m going to use it.  I don’t think a couple extra grams per sugar are going to kill me as long as I avoid it all other places possible)

Looks gross, taste amazing.  Also, I promise to stop taking pictures with my iphone for the blog.  Blurry is not my thing I swear!
