Expensive Workout

I arrived at the gym tonight, only to realize I had forgot my pants.

Awesome.

Good thing my gym is in a mall. I made a mad dash to Lululemon and procured myself a pair of Run Empower Crops. They’re great, and are super flattering. It did make for a really pricey workout though. Sorry Andrew! ;)

I rocked Body Attack tonight. I was a sweaty disgusting beast at the end, but my ass looked great in those pants… even as a sweaty beast!

My food today was pretty tasty.

B- 2 fat free Source yogurts, 1/4 cup granola, 1 banana

L- Leftover tomato/turkey macaroni, orange

D- Pizzzzzzzzzzzzzzza and brussels.

I realize its pretty hard to tell what exactly this is.

I made the crust from ESBM and split it in half to make 2 mini pizzas – one for me and one for hubby. It turned out pretty big because I rolled it super thin.

My toppings included: Alfredo sauce, red/green peppers, zucchini, broccoli, mushrooms, diced chicken breast and one itty bitty ounce of old cheddar.

On the side (aka shoved on the side of the plate) shredded brussels.

Tons of veggies makes me a  happpppppppppy girl! 

Question: Are you a fan of Lost or 24? What do you think of this season of both shows?

I’m a huge 24 fan, but this season I’m finding it pretty dry.

As for Lost… I’ve watched it from the very beginning. But honestly, I don’t think I get it. I don’t know if I’m detail oriented enough to catch every little detail. I bet even after the show’s finale I’ll still be saying WTF?! lol.

Once I forgot a workout shirt, and had to run and buy one in the building because I did NOT want to miss a step class! :)

And that pizza/brussels sprouts combo looks delish!

BIG TIME into Lost. Only on 2nd season of 24 but I really like it. And I'm totally with you on the confusion... I've already decided that I will need to watch the whole 6th season again once it's done. Oh it's on!! Sorry hockey!

Wow, buying new pants...that's SERIOUS dedication!

TJ said...

Ah, but the pants must feel good! I've been eyeing those for running.

Those are way cute....I need some cropped pants, too...now that spring is around the corner. Not sure I can swing $86 tho...yowsa!! But....WAY cute!

I do not watch either Lost or 24. Sorry. :( My only TV indulgences right now are American Idol (yeah...I know....LOL)....Desperate Housewives, Brothers and Sisters, and the Jon Stewart and Colbert shows. Oh...and What Not To Wear when there is a new one. Not too exciting.

I watch both shows. Lost, yes can be confusing. Do you watch the weekly recap show that's on before the new episode? They have little "pop-ups" at the bottom, that give some insights into the show. It can be helpful to learn a little extra. Since the end is in sight, I'm definitely sticking it out, but I admit, I still love the mystery! I just go with it. And I still love 24, although for sure some seasons have been better than others. There's talk of a 24 movie after this season; it might be better because they wouldn't have to put in all the filler to make up the full day. I still loves me some Jack!

Liane said...

Oh Lulu, how I love thee. I seriously have an addiction, and I think I should "accidentally" forget my workout pants this week, just so I can justify a new pair ;)

As for Lost and 24, I don't watch either, which is a shocker because I do love TV!

Gina said...

I love how lulu gear makes me look and feel during my workouts. I swear I have better workouts when I'm not fussing around with my clothes...and those just seem to fit so well!

I forgot socks once and just went without...it was terrible!

Angie All The Way said...

I've been a Lost watcher since the very beginning and I have NO idea what's going on now. I missed the premiere and I knew I'd have to watch ALL episodes to even have a CHANCE at knowing what was going on, so I'm now behind the entire season and have to download it. I think the story line is over the top when even original watchers can't keep up!

Next time I make pizza, I'm going to try that crust. I forgot there was on in that book.

I lost my lulu pants somewhere and it's driving me NUTS!

Laura said...

Those are sweet...I purposely stayed away from Lulu as I know what I am like but after buying a few things off the LOOT (sale) section online...I am hooked.
I haven't watched Lost or 24...

Paula said...

I've never missed an episode of Lost, and I have no clue what is going on, ever! I can't wait for it to be over, so they'll explain everything to us.

Wait, they ARE going to explain everything to us, aren't they???

Tania said...

i love that you bought new lulu's for your workout! I think i will 'accidentally' forget my gym wear one day - thanks for the idea ;)

p.s. i always think of your shredded brussel sprouts whenever ir see the home hardware commercial for those kitchen shears!

Amy, does Lululemons have size 18-20? I get irritated that the workout clothes in plus size are hard to find, what they don't think that bigger girls exercise? Also all the pants on their website are low waste...don't they have regular pants?
If you know where I can get nice workout clothes in plus size please help me.

Amy said...

Manon - Lululemon has some weird sizing. I usually wear an 8 or 10 there.

I believe their 12 is an XL.

As for the low waist... they say low waist, but really aren't. I hike them up to my belly button with no issues! :)

As for plus size workout gear, I'd check out Old Navy. They have some great workout gear!

kim said...

I love 24!!! I agree, this season isn't as interesting as some of the past seasons, but I love to watch Jack! I also love Chloe's faces! She is a hoot!

Sonia said...

I have never watched either of those shows :( I'm sure that in a year or so I'll wonder what I missed out on and try to watch the entire series in a weekend.
I always end up forgetting to bring a hair tie with me! Sometimes someone has one, but mostly I have to use a rubberband from the front desk and end up pulling a small handful of hair out at the end of my workout. OOPS.
There is someone at my gym in Lubbock, TX that looks exactly like you. I can't find a way to take a stealth pic so you'll have to take my word for it. My boyfriend thought I was crazy when I told him.

Manon from Ontario said...

Thanks for the info Amy, I love Old Navy but never thought of looking there for some workout clothes?
