Five Things Friday

It’s Friday already?  Well grab your coffee and let’s chat about what’s on my mind this week.

Kaia Fit

The big news this week was that I started going to a new group fitness program.  I bough a Groupon a few months ago for Kaia Fit and signed up for the five week session that started this week.  It’s hard to explain it as it’s a fusion of boot camp, crossfit and HIIT.

After two sessions (at 5 am) I can tell you I’m loving it.  I was very sore yesterday but not so bad I couldn’t move.  The hour goes by very fast!

Chobani Simply 100

One of my favorite snacks lately is a container of Chobani Simply 100 Greek yogurt with fruit.  There are three reasons I love it (besides the fact that it tastes great):

1. It has only 100 calories

2. All natural ingredients (no GMOs)

3. It’s a Weight Watchers power food!

Flu Shot

That’s me getting a flu shot last year.  This year I was out of the office the day we had them offered at work so I headed over to the walk-in flu clinic my medical provider was offering and got one.

It was quick and easy although my arm is a little sore at the injection area.  That’s a small price to pay for protection against the flu.

CrockPot Oatmeal

It’s finally starting to feel like Fall around here so I broke out the crockpot yesterday and made overnight oatmeal.  I just cut up two apples (with skin on), add 2 cups of rolled oats, 4 cups of water and a tablespoon of cinnamon and cook it on low overnight.

I  get five servings and it’s delicious!

Preventive Health Screenings

I had two medical appointments this week involving screenings.  Last Friday was the annual mammogram which I thought was very fitting seeing that it is Breast Cancer Awareness month.

Then Monday was a colonoscopy.  The prep sucked but the procedure was a breeze since I don’t remember a thing.  Plus I had a great four hour nap in the afternoon.

Both tests showed no problems!

These are my highlights from the past week.  What’s new with you?
