Hey friends! You all know I love surveys, and I recently saw this one on a couple of my favoriteblogs. You all know me… I was itching to do it. Since I shared my fitness routine with you all not too long ago, it is amazing how my answers to these questions have changed in the past couple of months!
This or That?
1. Run/workout in the heat and humidity or freezing temps and snow?
Give me heat any day over cold. I can’t take the cold!!
2. Have washboard abs or flat abs?
I like to look toned, but not washboard. Leave that to the men ladies. So, I guess I’ll go with flat abs?
3. Dr. Oz or The Doctors?
Neither?? Lol… If I had to choose it would be Dr. Oz because he does have some good nutritional advice and he offers naturopathic options.
4. Cardio or strength?
I used to be a cardio junkie! Now I really enjoy strength. I’m learning that muscle is so important to women!
5. Cravings: Protein or carbs?
I would say carbs. Mostly because they are a vehicle for me to eat my nut butter with! Lol!
6. Jillian Michaels or Bob Harper?
I love both, but I would have to pick Bob. I love his yoga dvd and his Bob’s workout DVD (which I miss!!). Plus my girl Kirstin gets to workout with him!
7. Frozen Yogurt or Ice Cream?
Well since I can’t have the real of either… I will say Coconut Milk Ice Cream!! There is nothing better IMHO.
8. To train: Upper body or Lower body?
I like lower body because it is cardio and weights at the same time, but I love the look I get by working upper body!
9. Protein powder or food with protein?
I love my Sunwarrior, but I try to get my protein from real food sources like beans, salmon, eggs, and nuts!
10. Lunges or squats?
Call me crazy but lunges!! Love the burn!
11. Sweet or salty?
Unsalted nut butter?? lol.. I guess sweet? I don’t crave much of either.
12. Workout attire: cute or comfy?
Comfy… but I workout at home! No one cares what I look like there!
13. Body Pump or Heavy lifting?
I so want to take a Body Pump class!!
14. Yoga or Pilates?
Pilates! I feel the burn the next day even!
15. Nike or Adidas?
Nike!
16. Running on the treadmill or outdoors?
Outdoors! I get bored on a treadmill!
(This is from over a year ago!!)
17. Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s?
Both. Whole Foods carries lots of things Trader Joe’s doesn’t. Trader Joe’s is easier on my wallet though!
18. Summer or Winter Olympics?
Summer Olympics! I love gymnastics, swimming, and diving!
19. Exercises classes or Exercise videos?
I don’t have a gym membership, so I love videos. I love that I can do them at home… for free! I do love classes though.
20. Steamed veggies or roasted veggies?
Steamed is easier and faster, but I much prefer roasted!
Okay now, your turn!
Answer some of the questions from above!! aaaannnnd go!

I really want to try that coconut milk ice cream. It just looks amazing!
Oh girl!! It is!
Love this! So true about carbs being a vehicle for nut butter
I need to try that ice cream!
I think everything is a vehicle for nut butter for me.. lol! The ice cream is amazing!
Whole Foods – I had higher expectations for Trader Joe’s and I never quite got over it.
I love this survey, I’ll be stealing it!!
There are only a few things I get at Trader Joe’s, but those few things are great!
I love surveys!
Heat always over cold.
Roasting over steamed (I roast batches at a time and eat over several days).
Carbs (I laughed at that comment though – precisely), in fruit if nothing else!
Have a great day.
We have so much in common girl!
I need to try out Bob’s yoga video! Did you order it online or find it in a store?
I got it on his site for $5!! it is good. Plus is has a 15min ab workout that is awesome!
Amen to Sunwarrior vanilla
oh yes!! Have you tried the warrior blend?
YES! I sort of like the original vanilla better but it’s good.
Oh these things are so fun! I definitely would rather take an exercise class than watch a video…I just get more motivated being around other people and an in person instructor! Hope you’ve had a great day girl!
I love classes too, but I’m cheap. lol! Hope you are having a great weekend!!
Love these! Haha, I’m a fan of using my carbs as a vehicle for my nut butter.
My answers are basically completely matching with yours!
Love roasted veggies to steamed. And same with exercise videos! I think we may be the only people that think that way;)
I love coconut milk ice cream that best too!
I swear we are twins… you were just born later than me!
Love the coconut milk ice cream. So delicous ((haha get it?? okayy I know i’m corny))
Cardio > Strength Training
Trader Joes > Whole Foods
Protein = Carbs.. too tough to decide
Lol.. that sounds like a joke I would make!!
I love these surveys. I still have the A-Z one saved from when you and a few other bloggers did it. I need to be better about actually doing them. You’d think it would be easy, but then I feel like I have to find pictures for everything…[Such a hard life, I know.
]
Lol.. I used to feel that way, but I soon got over it! I love the A-Z survey.. I can’t wait to read yours… HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Yoga over Pilates
Loved the post btw!
Thanks Bea! I wish I liked yoga more… I have no balance!
Oh my gosh, you look SO different with your hair straightened! I almost didn’t recognize you!
“Protein or Carbs? I would say carbs. Mostly because they are a vehicle for me to eat my nut butter with!” <- TOTALLY with you on that one!
Love lunges, love Bodypump, HATE running in the cold! I'm such a fair weather runner!
No body does!! It is crazy how different I look. My hubby’s secretary thought a strange woman went into his office. Hahaha!! I could cause quite a stir…
Isn’t everything a vehicle for nut butter??
