WIAW: Big Birthdays

Guys, I am a bad blogger. I COMPLETELY forgot my little bloggy’s TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY! Last year I celebrated it up with a huge giveaway and nice recap post of my first year…and this year? NOTHING! Completely slipped my mind!

I guess with senior year and upcoming exams I’ve just been a little distracted! But that’s no excuse!!! These past two years have been amazing…I honestly can’t believe it’s been that long. I am really proud of how my blog has grown and progressed…and a lot of that I owe to all of you. Thank you for all your support, feedback, comments, and encouragement. It means so much to me!

Here’s to another year of growth and fun!

(I guess this year’s celebration will be done with the announcement of my larabar giveaway winner…scroll down for the reveal!)

Aside from that big milestone birthday…I wanted to mention a birthday party my parents attended over the weekend. It was a family friends NINTIETH birthday!!! Talk about a BIG birthday!!! That certainly is a long and fulfilling life.

Seeing people age so wonderfully like our friend and lead such great lives even into those older ages is so inspiring. I hope to live a long life like that! Happy and healthfully of course.

And now for the third celebration in this post…

WIAW! The party everyone looks forward to!

What I Worked Wednesday:

Since I had the day off today I hit up the gym for some magazine reading and incline working. For anybody who says you can’t get a good workout in from walking is DEAD WRONG! I did those two interval workouts above (both from PBFingers!) and they were INTENSE!!! Level 15 incline is no joke, let me tell you!

And before I forget…the winner of SIX CAPPUCCINO LARABARS is……

    Congrats on two years!

    It looks like you had an awesome day of eats :) I’d love some homemade pizza right now! I used to do incline walking a lot, but then I got more into running, now when I try and incline walk on level 15.0 I feel like I’m going to die!

    Favorite protein bar is the Chocolate Fudge Promax Low-Sugar- it are sweetened with stevia, sooo tasty, and packed with dietary fiber.

    Happy 2 years Kaila :-) ! That’s awesome. Gahh, can we be workout buds? I think it would be so awesome to have a workout buddy at the gym, otherwise I find myself getting bored :p. Plus workout buds are fun. All of your eats look great, you surely get in your veggies- something that I should definitely work on :p.

    A year ago-is when I found your blog! :) Incline walking is a nuts workout-you can really feel the burn. When I run on an incline on the treadmill-it’s very painful. HA!

    I’ve never heard of those Elevate bars! But 16g of protein is great!!!

    Haha incline workouts kick my BUTT. I’m ALWAYS sore the next day!

    Wow what a workout! That incline workout does look steep. Speed/resistance intervals on an elliptical are a great way to keep things interesting but I never thought of doing the same with inclines on a treadmill.

    Yay! Congrats on 2 years! Happy Bloggy Birthday! I’m just about to have mine up and running and am SUPER DUPER excited! My favorite protein bars are the Pure Protein Double Chocolate one (I love the Strawberry Cheesecake version as well)! I think they’re tasty, chewy, and loaded with 20g of PURE PROTEIN!! WooHOOO!!

    ORANGES! I’m going to miss orange season…especially the cara cara

    Cream cheese and almond butter sounds awesoome. I think I’m going to do that with the maple butter I have in the fridge right now :)
