Today after lunch, I had a huge chocolate craving. Not surprising!! The only snack in my desk was a Chocolate Cherry You Bar.
I was a little skeptical about eating it since I was not a huge fan of the Breakfast Bar or the Great Date with Chocolate. I decided to just try a small bite to satisfy my craving. I opened the pack and immediately saw lots of chocolate chip chunks! I was a happy girl.
I took one bite and loved it! I was going to just eat half but I kept pulling it back out of my desk since it was so good! There were huge dates in every bite too! There were also sunflower seeds throughout the whole bar. It had a great taste since the first two ingredients are honey and almond butter. Can’t beat that! I was happy to finally enjoy one of the Youbars!
I said in my last post that I was going to leave at 3:45 for an art tour at the corporate office of my work. My boss came up to me around 2:30 and asked I wanted to go to the employee store. The employee store is only open during the week when I am at work so I never get to go. Basically they sell tons of makeup and beauty products for over half off. I get $160 to spend per quarter so you can imagine how excited I was. My boss let me leave at 3 so I could shop! So great!
I got there and got about 8 different products (lotions, eye shadow, lip gloss…). Yes, it is the best thing about my job! The tour was at 4:30. I am happy I went because the building was beautiful and overlooked the entire city. I got to leave at 5:15 and was home by 6 instead of 7!
Boyfriend and I decided to stay in tonight since I haven’t been feeling too well the past couple of days. I got home and had a package waiting for me!
It was from YouBar!! Now they have trail mix to customize and sent me a few to try out!
- Chocolate Trail
- Best Trail Mix
- Mix Up Your Day
I love that they expanded from just bars and shakes to trail mix! Great idea since I know I am always picking random things out of trail mix that I don’t like. I will try it all this weekend!
Since the boy and I stayed in, we decided to make it a pizza and beer night. I know, probably not the smartest thing for feeling sick! I knew pizza would make me happy so I agreed. And beer always makes me happy 
There was just one condition…I wanted healthy pizza! We bought a Kashi frozen pizza a few days ago. It is supposed to be 3 servings but the boy looked at it and decided it was too small to share! He ended up getting some real New York pizza!
It was incredibly hard for me to eat my Kashi pizza after seeing and smelling his!!! I knew I would regret it later so I stuck with my somewhat healthy pizza!
We stuck it in the oven for 15 minutes and made some beer!
I kept eating the oranges for some vitamin C! The oranges were especially good since I was feeling sick!
We made salads to go with our pizza too! Gotta get those veggies in for the day!
The Kashi pizza turned out delicious! I was okay with eating it over real New York pizza! It was very enjoyable!
I was a little worried when I saw that each serving was 290 calories and there were 3 servings in a pizza. I tend to go overboard with things I love but I tried to eat slow and think about if I was full after every slice.

Missy,
What is up with boys and their metabolisms? It's truly not fair.
I think your Kashi pizza looked delicious and that coconut milk ice-cream may not be as good as cake batter B & J, but I still love it! Too bad it's like $6 a pint!
Anyway, hope you had a good workout at Core Fusion and that you're enjoying some 80 degree weather soon.

I totally feel your pain! My hubby can eat like that too and not have any problem keeping weight off. If I do though, it’s all down hill from there. I have such a hard time not eating an entire Kashi pizza when I make them though, they’re so damn good!

Boys are lucky if they have a super fast metabolism. They don’t really seem to care. Girls are the opposite, so they should have the faster metabolism. Well, that’s life for ya. I’ve always wanted to try youbars. I’m glad you like them, though!

I love how boys can eat so much! Whenever I want something I always get/make it for my husband so I can eat a bite!

Pizza, beer, and ice cream sounds like the perfect weekend night
And I know what you mean about the male metabolism…my boyfriend can some how maintain his 6 pack abs while eating only candy, protein bars, and cookies. So not fair!!
