ha. so for all the newbies out there hey now! come out from the closet! i love it when you do ;) weird julie. weird.
anyways every friday i’ve gotten into this thang where i call it “conclusions friday” it’s also known as a copout post so i don’t have to get all paragraphy. ya feel me..
i think this is my 4th or 5th conclusions friday. shall i continue on with the tradish?
1.combining two cheeses also known as laughing cow & cottage cheese is awesome. melting them is genius.
roll out wrap, 1/4c cottage cheese, LC, mustard, 1/4 cado, 1 slice of turkey, broccoli slaw. grilled on a pan and melted to utter perfection
2. i love new york. hearing jay z’s “new york state of mind” on the radio every 4 seconds makes me not want to love it
3. sometimes when bars are on sale for a buck a piece it’s because they suck there’s a reason.
pure protein strawberry shortcake: this bar was on sale for $1 at the foodstore so i picked it up. major mistake. it’s not strawberry shortcake. it’s more like strawberry jam smooshed into weird white crackly frosting. the nutrition stats weren’t so bad but about 2 hours after eating it i was hungry! it’s not good for bar breaking and should not be classified under the “cake” category. i’m mad i bought two. i would definitely not buy this bar again. well unless it was free..
4. i have an addition to buying things on netrition.com
…anyone want to start a support group…
5. carbs are amazing. especially when they’re consumed with cinnamon either before bed or before the gym.
6. i will never stop talking about my love for popcorn. and i will not apologize for it.
7. i feel dirty using the good girl/bag girl hip abductor machines at the gym especially in between sets when you’re just sitting there if you know what i mean..

8. it is not smart to wear shorts outside in below zero degree weather. nuff said about that.
9. post workout smoothies are delicious but guzzling them in under 30 seconds will cause horrid tummy aches.
1/2c unsweetened vanilla almond breeze, 1c water, 1scoop eas vanilla whey, 1/2 banana, 1/4c canned pumpkin, stevia, vanilla extract, cinnamon, 1/2tsp guar gum, under 1tbsp leftover pb2
10. i need guar gum tutoring.
11. the blogging community should start a shake ‘stache campaign
12. clearly i have no shame with the pictures i post of myself on the internet this week. obviously this website is not used for dating purposes.
13. hot showers are essential after drinking ice cold shakes on ice cold days.
14. restocking the veggie crisper is one of the best feelings in the world. paying less then 11 bucks for all of these fiberous treats is the ultimate steal best feeling in the world.
15. you are extremely jealous of my production collection as of right now and i have ran out of conclusions.
what are your friday conclusions?

Ick the only Pure Protein bar I ever had tasted like cardboard. Never again. And I will eat just about anything...
You may have answered this before but do you make your own popcorn? Like with the kernals and a paper bag or is it store bought?
HOW did you get all of that for 11? You really did steal it!!
Wow I conclude I need to do some fruit and veg shopping!
Um #8...agreed! I conclude that as it is now about 8 pm, I need to get some dinner.
I <3 conclusions Friday because it always make me giggle. Ugh- that strawberry shortcake protein bar sounds icky. I am TOTALLY jealous of all your produce and cannot wait to go food shopping tomorrow- hooray! My Friday conclusion- getting all of your to dos for the weekend MOSTLY done on Friday rocks and Frank is awesome ;)
OMG I hate the Pure Protein Strawberry Shortcake bar too. It is TERRIBLE. I had heard about it and wanted to try it really badly, I finally found one in the store. Took one bite and threw the rest of it away. So disappointing.
i conclude you are adorbs!
My first conclusion is that I LOVE conclusion Friday, you crack me up. I love the stach.
Another conclusion is that I stare at a computer screen way too much during the day. Also, after remembering my conclusion last week (having something to do with the fact that I want a drink on Friday) I have concluded that Fridays must mean I have to have a drink. Always. Yep, and here I go! Happy Hour here I come :)
Bummer about the bar--I find that artificial strawberry-flavored things kinda suck. Case in point? Strawberry Spirutein.
hahah I love the good girl/bad girl hip abductors - so true!! Hmm conclusion I have come up with this week:
1. Eat during the day so I'm not ravishing in the afternoon/at night. Duhhh I knew this already, I just needed a little reminder ;-)
Have a wonderful Friday girlie!
GIRL I could have told you about those pure protein bars! omg they are horrendous (well at least that flavor) I think the chocolate may not taste as bad, but honesly anything fruit and protein flavored is just NOT for me, I acutally returned a tub of strawberry protein powder taht legit almost made me vom. there is a reason for the buck! haha
I have come to realize that when there is a line in a dressing room at a clothing store, changing in the store in front of a big mirror happens! I also came to the conclusion on how much I love cottage cheese. it is just so fabulous I can eat a tub a day (no joke)
love you!
Fridays are totallyyyy time to get un-paragraphy. I love conclusions Friday! Keep it coming.
And holy produce! I craved a smoothie today too, even though it's -1 MILLION degrees out. Gafhg. (That's my freezing sound). See, you're not the only one who's rambling comments might make no sense ;)
never stop conclusion friday-ing, ya heard?! me loves it!!
p.s. your eyes are effin gorgeous.. look at those baby blues!
I can't beleive it's conclusions Friday already!
Don'tcha just love cheap veggies???
julie you alwways make me smile!! haha, that bar sounds pretty nasssty..sorry bout that, love! mmm smoothieees :)
xoxo

I used to work for the company that manufactures Pure Protein Bars. We would get to try all the new (and old) flavors. I have to admit, NONE of them tasted very good. Plus, they all contain maltitol which when ingested causes gas in most people. It was terrible. I remember having the worst gas pains in my life!!!
NICE: restocking the veggie crisper is one of the best feelings in the world. paying less then 11 bucks for all of these fiberous treats is the ultimate steal best feeling in the world.
YES that is the BEST feeling when you re load. I reloaded today but it was $19. For a fam of 3. And that should get me til precisely Sunday afternoon :)
xoxo
are those things on the top bananas??? hmmm, they are most def on their LAST legs. hopefully they are oatmeal bound...
ok anyways, i learned that the "feels like" degree measurement on weather.com is more accurate than the actual temp...and i learned that you need xanthan gum (which you already knew)
I'm new to your blog. ;) *newbie dance*
Even though it's Saturday now, my friday conclusion is that I need to eat more veggies and salad asap. (I'm coming off a vacation with super rich crazy food.)
dnwjkscnfjdkfds. MELTED CC+LC?! sometimes i wonder why you dont call me with these epiphanies and then i have to wait to read about them. did you have this earlier in the week and i somehow missed it? i mean, it is conclusion friday after all.
god. that strawberry bar is so gross. i picked it up like a year ago because it was a buck. so nasty.
LMAO at your ab/adductor comment. so true!
LOVE YOUR STACHE! i posted it tonight!
mwah!
good girl bad girl machine.. LOL!! It's so true though! Especially because I'm short so it's quite awkward.
And maybe I'm just crazy but Pure Protein bars are my favorite protein bars!! lol
I love these posts. You definitely need to continue them.
Where do you shop that you got all those veggies for $11. I need to go to your supermarket.
Cinnamon+carbs = heaven in my mouth. Any time.
I'm not a bar fan. Unless they are larabars. In which case I am the biggest fan.
major score on that produce! Awesome girl. oohh I love me my carbs. Whats your favorite stuff on netrition? Just curious. Ive been pokin around on that site. I like trying new things out=) Sounds like a great workout too. Way to go! I hope you have an awesome weekend!
Julie, I just refound your blog!! I kind of stopped reading bloggies for a while, so I'm sorry :( But I'm in NYC now!
WHERE THE HECK DID YOU GET THOSE GROCERIES FOR 11????
i love you!
and your stache;)
yummy smoooothie!! dont down them silly!! braaiiin freeeze!
my friday conclusion was.. DONT DRIVE IN THE SNOW.
hmmm i <3 your CC wraps!
Love the ab/adductor comment! I will never do those the same again!
Guar gum tip: LESS IS MORE!
