Fit Friday!!

Another Fit Friday is upon us, and there is no shortage of healthy, beautiful things to talk about today!

First thing's first: My spinning DVD's came on Wednesday, and I started out with this one:


Don't let this chick's kind smile deceive you. If I had any doubts about a spinning DVD being as intense as an actual class, they are ALL thrown out the window! My legs and butt were aching so bad the next day, I had to skip Thursday's workout to let me recover. I. Couldn't. Move. The workout is approximately an hour long, and my heart rate monitor tells me I burned over 700 calories. HOLY CRAP! I'm thinkin' the bike was a damn good investment.

PRODUCT REVIEW: Not many younger people I know use Avon products. I think it's because the products are aimed more at our parents' generation, but after trying out their mineral makeup (and loving it...it's all I use), I've decided to give Avon another try, and I'm impressed. Despite the fact there are online coupon codes where you almost NEVER have to pay shipping, the crappy economy (I'm guessing) has caused the company to slash prices, and everything is SO CHEAP.

My latest purchase included this:

It's called Avon Magix Face Perfector, and I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be used as an alternative to foundation, but I use it as kind of a "primer" underneath my powder...and I LOOOVE it. It keeps my face from getting shiny, and helps keep my makeup stay put. It's cheap, too! Only $10 on avon.com. ALSO...it's SPF 20 so it keeps ya from getting red out on the sun.


My Kashi obsession continues to grow. These things are YUMMY!

Same deal as the review from last week on the pumpkin pie bars. 120 calories, kind of small (THAT's WHAT SHE SAID!!!!), but chewy and satisfying.

So, I'm going to try out a poll question here...and PLEASE if you read this blog answer the poll! I'm kinda wondering how many people read regularly, besides Lauren, Steph, and my mom:)

How often do you exercise?

I do love the Kashi bars. My favorite is the honey almond flax. Morgan says it is tasteless, but what does she know? She eats sweet stuff on a regular basis. It tastes pretty fine when you aren't eating much sugar!!!!!!
