Blogmas Day 11

*Friends, how many of us have them?*
Happy Blogmas! On day eleven I attempted to start my week off right. I started my Monday morning by going to the gym and trying to get back into my healthy lifestyle. While at the gym I did an hour of cardio. I did my lunges, squats and sprints on the treadmill. I did about an hour of cardio and stretched before and after. After the gym I went to get showered and cleaned to go meet my friend Toria at Arden's Garden. If you don't know what Arden's Garden is, it's a Atlanta-based family-owned juice company founded in 1995. It has 13 stores in Atlanta and sells bottled juices in 5 states: Georgia, Florida, Tennessee and both North and South Carolina. They sell smoothies, juices and even detoxes. They also sell vegan food and salads. This was my first time even going.
I had the pineapple, mango, raseberry, blueberry smoothie. My first impression was a little rocky. If you know my, you know I'm into slushies, milkshakes, icee's, frosties, and daiquiris. So it was a little different for me. I've never liked smoothies because they have a strange taste to me but I was trying to change that. It's going to take baby steps to get me there completely. Watch my initial reaction in the video below. Sorry for looking so rough after a workout and shower I was very natural and comfy.
After Ardens Garden I was starving. Even though I really wanted to go to Taco Bell and get some rolled chicken tacos, I went with the healthier option and went to Chipotle. I got a bowl with chicken, rice, lettuce and sour cream. I know I know it's so plain but that's how I like my Chipotle. I was in a good mood so I got Toria a bowl too. After Chipotle I headed to her house to relax.
As I was drinking my smoothie and on my way to her house, I had to make a quick stop because it just wasn't cutting it. Wanna guess what I got? A Blue-rasberry Freeze from Taco Bell. I felt bad for cheating my healthy lifestyle on the first day but hey work with me. I will continue to get better each day. By the new year I'll hopefully be completely vegan or moving towards it.
The rest of my day was pretty chill. I sat at Toria house and watched movies and laughed all night. We both have our own jobs and businesses so we don't get to hang everyday like we once used to. But when we do it's always a good time. If you're in the Atlanta Area and need your lashes done contact her asap for your lash extensions.
