Bob's Red Mill Protein Powder Review

As a SweatPink Ambassador, I have the awesome opportunity to review new products.  This month I had the opportunity to review Bob’s Red Mill Protein Powder.  This stuff is super yummy and full of all kinds of goodness.  It comes in four varieties: Vanilla, Chocolate, Chai, and Protein and Fiber.  I was able to try all the flavors!  I think my favorite is vanilla, but I really liked all of them.  Each flavor is packed with chia, probiotics, omega-3’s, amino acids, and much more.  They are gluten free, vegan, and are made with only clean ingredients.  
The first shake I made I used the chocolate protein powder and added water, fruit and ice.  It was really yummy.  I used strawberries, pineapple, blueberries, and raspberries.

In my second shake, I used the Protein and Fiber protein powder along with my EAS Chocolate Whey protein powder, water, ice, and fruit.  I used strawberries, pineapple, blueberries, and raspberries, again.  This one was yummy as well.

In my third shake, I used the Chai protein powder, my EAS Chocolate Whey protein powder, PB Fit (powdered peanut butter), water, ice, and fruit.  I used peaches, strawberries, and blueberries.  This one was super delicious.

In my 4th shake, I used the chocolate protein powder, my EAS Chocolate Whey protein powder, water, ice, and fruit.  I used peaches, strawberries, and blueberries.  Not as many peaches this time and more strawberries and blueberries.  The double chocolate flavor made this shake really decadent.

My next shake I used the vanilla protein powder, my EAS Chocolate Whey protein powder, pineapple, and blueberries.  Totally delicious and one of my favorite combinations so far.

My next shake I used the vanilla protein powder, my EAS chocolate whey protein powder, pineapple, and watermelon.  Absolutely delicious and HUGE!!!  The extra water from the watermelon makes it that much bigger that it took up my entire blender pitcher.  I had forgotten how much I love having watermelon in my shakes!  It is so yummy!!

The next shake I made was with the vanilla protein powder, my EAS chocolate whey protein powder, strawberries, PB Fit, and watermelon.  It was amazing!!  And, again, Huge!!! I had to drink this one in batches because it was so big!  I had it for lunch and finished the rest as an afternoon snack.

The next shake I made was after I ran 3 miles on the treadmill and wanted something to tide me over until dinner time since I ran about 3:00.  So I used the leftover coffee that was in my coffee pot, mixed in the Chai protein powder and some ice, and Voila, a delicious afternoon treat, plus the protein and nutritional boost my muscles needed after running.  This was seriously delicious!  It tasted like an expensive iced coffee from Starbucks, but healthy and I made it in my own kitchen with my sweat towel around my neck still!  HaHa!

I think what I love the most about this protein powder is that it is made from all natural ingredients.  It’s delicious too, so that helps.  
I still have some left over, so I’ll still be making shakes with this.  I may even try it in my oatmeal one of these days!

Until next time, run hard, eat well, be happy!!

When Life Throws You Lemons--My Comeback

I know I haven't’ been the best blogger as of late.  Honestly, I haven’t felt like sharing much of what I’ve been going through the past year.  Maybe I felt ashamed for struggling so much and wanted to continue to give off the persona that everything was perfect.  I’m not perfect. Far from it. But that’s what makes me real and human. I think that’s what people want to see and read about.  Not everyone is a fitness model or perfect wife and mother. So here it is! My comeback to blogging. It’s going to be real and raw and everything I’ve kept inside.   Last year when we returned from our Disney vacation (June 2017), I started back into training for my 3rd Madison Marathon.  I wanted a PR so badly for this race. I wanted so badly to be under 5 hours. My training sucked! With EJ starting peewee football and my class load at work (I’ll get into that later), every time I thought about this race, I dreaded it.  Honestly, I was falling more and mo...

A trip to a local running store with a friend & A Training Update

Well, I finally did it!  It only took me over 4 years to do it but I finally was properly fitted for running shoes!!  (And it’s only taken me a month and a half to blog about it!!  Darn Garage project and heading back to school! LOL (see previous post for more of my excuses!)) On Tuesday, July 26, my awesome friend Michelle and I traveled to Fleet Feet Sports in Middleton.  Michelle and I work together at one of the middle schools I teach at.  She is honestly the best co-worker in the world!  We totally get each other which is awesome and makes going to work that much more enjoyable!  We taught summer school together but I haven’t seen her since summer school ended.  It was great catching up on things on the ride from Milton where she picked me up to Middleton.  I honestly haven’t laughed that much in probably 3 weeks!  It’s always great to hang out with my buddy!   Anyway, we arrived at the store and looked around for a bit ...

A Change in Mindset and Goals

Since reading The Magnolia Story and my experience with my wedding rings, I have changed my mindset about so many things.  One in particular being my obsession with running and working out.  I know that my running and working out is time-consuming and a lot of our free time revolves around my running schedule because I have set these lofty goals to run races and a certain number of miles in a year.  This has also caused me to be ridiculously burned out from running.  I have lost my love of it a little bit.  So to gain that back, the first thing I am doing is to NOT set a mileage goal for next year.  I still want to train and race, but I am going to follow my plans more and not overdo it as much just to chase a number.  I am going to run more for feel and for the freedom it gives me.  I am going to run with friends more.  I am going to make running fun and enjoyable again.  I’m going to concentrate on getting stronger with more stre...
