Plant Protein
Since I do not eat any animal based products and I need my protein to replenish my workouts, I decided to purchase Jarrow Formulas Plant Protein. It's not the tastiest but I add it to my fruit smoothies so it covers up the taste completely. There are also other plant protein products that are flavored, however:

Moving on.
As much as it pains me to leave the beautiful weather and palm trees, I have decided to move to Michigan prior to my move to Chicago. I will be heading up north on March 31st until May 1st then moving on to Chi town. This will allow me to spend some time with my new baby niece and I'll be able to be there for my beautiful cousin, Shannon while she has her baby boy. :) Going away party dates coming soon.
