I can tell it’s Friday! I’m having a hard time getting motivated over here.
For some reason, my body would not get out of bed this morning. I’m blaming it on the nasty weather over here. ;)
I have some exciting news… for me at least!
I got accepted as a FitFluential Ambassador! How stinking awesome is that?!?!
Talking about #fitfluential, I’ve decided to change up my workout routine yet again. My chest and triceps are still sore from my Wednesday workout!
You know how I told you all my toenails were falling off?? Well, I have been wearing my running shoes too tight. They said it is a mistake that lots of dancers make. We are used to our shoes needing to be tight.
I needed to go up an entire size!! Whoops.
Yesterday, I Instgramed my Pumpkin Protein Ice Cream snack. I had several requests for the recipe.
This is certainly a #fitfluential snack!
Pumpkin Protein Ice Cream
- 1 large frozen banana
- 1/4-1/2 cup pumpkin (your preference)
- 1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder
- Cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice to taste
Add all into mini food processor or blender. Blend until thick and like an ice cream texture.
Top with pumpkin pie spice and toasted almonds!
Enjoy!!
How are you going to be FitFluential today?
What are your plans for the weekend?

Congrats on your #fitfluential-ness.
I have thought about joining up, but really am not sure of the pros and cons of it all!
I can say your pumpkin ice cream is ALL pro!
Now see, I didn’t even know it was something you joined.
I read a post of a woman that was “kicked out”? for lack of a better phrase, but it was the comments in that post that I actually took larger issue with.
Thanks love! You would be an awesome fitfluential ambassador! We will have to chat about it sometime!
I love you as a fitfluential person (I have to admit, I have only recently understood kind of what it is). I think you have balanced, realistic, and gentle approach to healthy living that can inspire a lot of people to care for their body.
Dog shows this weekend.
You are too sweet!
Thank you!
Hope the dog show went well!!!! I was thinking of you!
I didn’t know you could get kicked out! wow…
I could be greatly misstating the situation, but somehow this blogger who I can’t even remember right now was told that she wasn’t really participating (I think with the reviews or something?).
The dog show didn’t go so well, but he is young and I have to be happy about just the overall experience.
YAYAY You deserve it more than ever, so happy for you
Thanks sweet girl!
Congrats girl! You definitely deserve it!!! And yummm to that pumpkin protein ice cream! Need to make that asap!
Thanks friend! Let me know if you try the ice cream!
This looks amazing!!! I can’t wait to try it! You know I love all things pumpkin!
Let me know if you try it!! I think we are all going to turn orange! haha!
Congratulations!!! You totally deserve it. I love the community – you are a perfect fit.
Thanks girl! That means so much coming from you!
Congrats! Sounds like an awesome opportunity. That pumpkin banana ice cream sounds fantastic. I need to try that this weekend!
Thanks Madison! I’m so glad you commented so I could find your blog!! I love finding other people with food allergies!
Great news! So happy for you.
Thanks girl… we need to catch up!
Congratulations! Being an ambassador is so much fun! You’ll be great at it! I actually think my running shoes might be a little too small too, and possibly the cause of my shin splints? I’m mad that I didn’t say anything when I was at the shoe store getting fitted, because I probably could’ve gone up a 1/2 size!
Thanks Emily!! I bet it could cause shin splints.. or if you don’t have enough cushion. I would go back to the running store and ask!
Congrats on being a Fitfluential Ambassador!
Love the looks of that Pumpkin Protein Ice Cream! It better warm up here a bit before I try it out though… I’ve been freezing nonstop the past few days!
Thanks!! I know… it turned cold here Friday and it is going to stay that way. I’ll have to save my ice cream til summer now…
Congrats on becoming an ambassador! I can’t believe you have to go up a whole shoe size! My plans for the weekend are running a 5k race tonight and then running 12 miles tomorrow morning!
You are killing it running girl! So awesome!
