Graze Snack Box - Coupon Code

I got my first Graze Snack Box in the mail today!
I had a coupon code to get my first box free, but they are only about $7! It is a subscription box but they have several different choices for how often you receive your box. Once you sign up you get to kind of pick and choose what comes in your box! THERE ARE SO MANY OPTIONS! Vegan, gluten free, everything! There is definitely something for everyone :)

I did sample everything from this box except for the cocoa cookie dippers (not a chocolate cookie fan) and the were all so so good! The Olive & Rosemary Bruchetta breadsticks and pretzels have a pretty strong tomato taste and remind me of roasted tomato triscuits, so tasty. Key Lime Pie flavored things are not usually my first pick but it was so good! The lime flavor is strong enough to taste it but not over powering. I had never tried pistachios before this box but I definitely liked these ones!

Each box does come with the nutrition facts for each snack!

This was a product that I was just going to use the free sample for and then end but I decided after trying it that I'm going to continue it for once a month! So worth the try! 

I have a coupon code if youre interested in getting the first & fifth boxes for free! Comment below if you would like the code :)

Kayla Itsines BBG Week One - Complete

This week was definitely a tough one! I forgot how sore the leg workout leaves me! But I made it through!
On Monday, I did the leg workout and also went for a 2.5 mile slow jog with my mom.
Wednesday, I did the arm workout
Saturday night I went for a 40 minute walk

I didn't have time to do the full body workout this week or as much LISS as I should've but I'm pretty busy with the school year finishing up! I also didn't stick to my macros this week :( it's Sunday night though and I'm about to get my meals ready for this week and hope to do much better! :)

Also I realized that posting  daily wont really be realistic so I figured I will post at the end of each week!

Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Guide - Day 1

After seeing so many pictures on Instagram and PumpUp of people using the Bikini Body Guide, I decided to give it a shot. Being a full time college student and working part time, I got about 4 weeks in and was never finishing a work out and definitely not trying as hard as I should have been. During this time I have also been trying to change my diet to flexible dieting (IIFYM). I decided this morning that I did so bad at both of them the passed 2 weeks that I needed to start over. So thats what Im doing. Everyday (well I'll try my hardest) to post on here my workout that I did and what I ate in the day. I have 2 weeks until a beach getaway with my boyfriend and a little over a month until my sister's wedding (which I am a bridesmaid in), so I really need to get my butt back in shape! I'm so excited to start this journey and will be trying my absolute hardest to stay on track. I will also be post progress pictures along the way so here is day one!

Foam Glow 5k Run!

Tonight my friend and I ran in the Foam Glow 5k in Chicago! It was so fun! If you are familiar with the color run or any run like that, this one is vary similar except instead of the powder paint it is all foam, obviously. The race also is a night because the foam is glow in the dark! Before the race there is a sound stage with DJs and the same after the race, the after party is a lot more fun. If you're interested in running check out their website: http://www.foamglow.com. They still have some dates left for this year! If you would rather run the powder paint version (or both, I did the powder version last month) here is a link to their other website: http://www.blacklightrun.com. Both of these runs are great for beginners and welcome walkers! There are also quite a few kids, so bring them along too!

Sunday Run-Day

Had a long but fun weekend! But took some time off the gym after my 2 1/2 hours of training at a new gym on Friday. So today I took it easy with a 4.25 mile run and a 1.75 mile bike ride!
Even a short workout is better than nothing!
