Sweet Italian Turkey Sausage “Spaghetti”
So Many Choices When It Comes To Working Out At Home

dianemichiko
Who else is working out at home these days? I was Who else is working out at home these days? I was a huge gym rat. It was my happy place! Then 13 years ago, I moved to a tiny town. There was not a gym in our town. I’d have to go to the town over, which wasn’t a big deal, but I couldn’t justify the time away from the family and the price of the membership. Later, we moved out of city limits, and soon after, the town finally got a small gym 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 I actually really enjoy working out at home. I save anywhere from 20-40 min of drive time. I can workout in my jammies. I can split my workouts into different blocks of time if needed, that way I can take care of priorities (kids are home for school, working from home, household chores, etc). I even hosted boot camp classes and virtual workouts here because the price to rent any space is 2-3 times more than i make teaching classes 😂 Your home gym area doesn’t have to be glamorous like the pictures we see from tons of influencers. It just has to be functional. 98% of our equipment was free, from Goodwill, or from the Caring Center (like a Salvation Army). My must haves: Dumbbells 5-20lbs Resistance bands A big ole tire (we were actually given multiple sizes of tires, but this ones my favorite) An exercise ball Between all of those, you can mimic almost all the machines/equipment at the gym! What are your at home gym must haves? Drinking @idealfit Peach Leamonade BCAAs and waiting for my Strawberry Kiwi PreWorkout to kick in 🤣 IdealFit has a huge Cyber Monday deal going on!

I can never make pasta look decent 🤷🏻‍♀️ but you get the idea 🙃 I really had to start putting some effort into meal prepping because making lunch during my work from home hours was taking entirely too much time. So I stopped eating til much later in the day or else I’d grab something out and about and it was usually not even remotely healthy. Italian Turkey Meatballs with a homemade sauce on top a bed of regular spaghetti noodles & zoodles I absolutely love noodles and I will never give up my pasta completely 😂 so I used half a serving of noodles and added zucchini noodles to make up for the rest. I ended up with more zucchini that I would have with just noodles, so I’m a happy & full girl 🤤😂 55p 49c 22f Should’ve made smaller meatballs and made 3 servings instead of two, but it all stick works out macro wise for me. #homemademeatballs #turkeyballs #turkeymeatballs #groundturkey #groundturkeyrecipes #zoodles #zuchinninoodles #zuchinnirecipes #zucchinirecipes #zucchininoodles #spaghettiandmeatballs #lunchbox #lunchtime #macros #trackingmacros #macrotracking #easylunch #weightloss #leaningout #iifym #flexibledieting #flexibleeating #flexibleeatingandfitness #flexibleeatinglifestyle #countingmacros #macrocounting #macrofriendly #macrofriendlyrecipes #macrofriendlymeals #workfromhomelife

Accutane What a crazy medicine.... About to star Accutane What a crazy medicine.... About to start month 5. Been on 40mg/day each month so far Who else is taking this and has a “Must Always Be With Me” kind of stash? 💊Tylenol for the achey joints 👄 All sorts of chapsticks because certain masks, outdoor/indoor temps, activities, etc calls for a certain type (and this isn’t including the one at my desk, bedside, bathroom, car, and the one next to my couch). 🧖🏼‍♀️ Moisturizer for the dry spots (mines not flaking, just super dry sporadically & noticeable) 👃🏼Triple Antibiotic Ointment for my extremely dry nostrils 👁 Lubricant eye drops for the lovely dry eyes What I’ve tried in the past: 👉🏼 Cureology - their formula for me included medicine I was already on prescribed to me by the Derm. Saw 0 changes 👉🏼 Proactive - 0 help 👉🏼 Prescription Oral Antibiotics - over the course of 10 years, I was routinely on one of the following: Doxycycline, Amoxicillin, Clindamycin, and others - results the first few months of each were great, but I always stalled & was left with 10-15ish pimples regularly, which was always better than what it would’ve been without 👉🏼 Prescription Topical Antibiotics - clindamycin - noticed 0 changes 👉🏼 Prescription Spironolactone - started at 50mg and world up to 100mg over about a year with minimal improvement 👉🏼 Trentinoin Cream 0.1% - lots of dry, flaking skin, but no change otherwise 👉🏼 every Benzyl Peroxide wash, cream, gel, or wipe And I know there’s a ton of other OTC products 🤷🏻‍♀️ What do you carry around in your stash? If there was one thing you absolutely have to have in order to make it through the day. What would it be?

Who else can get away with dressing down a bit for work? Most of the people in our buildings have always been able to come in jeans and a tee, but some of us have to look a little nicer. But since CoVid, there has been a lot less traffic coming through our offices. Meaning, I don’t have put on my super duper nice dress clothes for work!

You know those days you just feel good? Today was You know those days you just feel good? Today was one of those days. Maybe it’s the super comfy outfit that fit just right. Maybe it’s the Diet Coke. Maybe it’s cause I get to go into the office to see people for a bit. Either way, today’s been a good day 😉 Who has been stuck at home because of CoVid? I started a new job in March and after 6 days, I was deemed non-essential. Luckily, they found work for me to do from home! I’ve been in the office a total of 4 times since then. Now with weekly meetings, I’m so excited to get out of the house regularly, other than to when I take the kids to school or run to get groceries!

Are you reading anything good right now? What’s your go to book genre/type? 9/10 times, I’m reading something from @jamespattersonbooks. My Pops sent me 2 recently and I finished the Alex Cross one, but haven’t started the Epstein one yet. Can’t decide between that one next, or continuing the Women’s Murder Club series...I’m on the 11th one.... Other books I’ve read (as an adult)? Not many 😂 @ficklefishfilms Twilight series, and yes, I’ll be reading Midnight Sun, too. @jennyhan’s To All The Boys I Loved Before. And yes. I’ve seen all the movies 😊 I sadly cannot remember any other books I’ve read since graduating High School! I like to read the books before I watch the movies. Is anyone else like that? I cannot read a book after watching the movie. I’ve tried! The girls and I have been watching @thehungergames and Ally has reread the books 3 or 4 times now. She keeps asking me if I’ll read the books now since I like the movies. I won’t! She thinks I’m weird 😂 #toalltheboysivelovedbefore #jennyhan #bookstagram #booklover #readmorebooks #readabook #jamespatterson #jamespattersonbooks #hungergames #hungergamesbooks #suzannecollins #hungergamesmovie #river #lazyriverlife #riverlife #countryliving #missouri #missourioutdoors #swimminghole #riverrat #outdoorfun #twilight #twlight #stephaniemeyer #midnightsun #epstein #jefferyepstein
Back in the day, 9 outta 10 times, my idea of rive Back in the day, 9 outta 10 times, my idea of river refreshments would include some kind of alcohol. 5 years after baby #2, my body screams NOOOOO when I even consider the idea 😂 I ❤️ these clear whey protein options from @idealfit. The idea of a milky protein shake, on the river, in the hot sun, just doesn’t sound very enticing. But these.... 🤤 These juice like protein drinks are 80-90 calories depending on the flavor 20g of protein 6 flavors to choose from: Tropical Dragonfruit Lemonade Mojito Strawberry Apple & Cranberry Iced Tea Mix with 20-24oz of cold water, let it settle, and mix again. If it’s not all dissolved, shake it up and let it sit one more time.

I’ve lived out here in the middle of no where MO I’ve lived out here in the middle of no where MO for 12 years now. There still aren’t a whole lot of things I love about it. But, one thing I absolutely love, is the many options we have for river access! We went on a short float last night, from Klein to Cedar Ford. We had been to Cedar Ford before, but never Klein. We also discovered Wesco! And that was much bigger than we expected! Jayson got home around 3 and decided we should go on a short evening float. I actually despise being outdoors. But, put me on/at a river, and I am one happy lady! Did you know I had never gone floating before I met Jayson? People out here have a hard time understanding, but there just aren’t many rivers in the city 😂 Are you a pool, lake, river, or dry land kinda person? I’m honestly terrified of water. And I’m always sooo cold. I hate being in water unless it’s bath water warm! @intexrecreationcorp inflatable kayak -and- I spy some @idealfit clear whey protein code DIANE gets you 15% off anytime, as often as you want #riverrat #riverrats #summerfloat #floating #riverlife #riverfloat #floattrip #kayak #kayaking #kayakingadventures #kayakingadventure #inflatablekayak #inflatablekayaks #intexkayak #adventureoutdoors #missouri #meremacriver #meramecriver #cedarford #kidsadventures

Instagram ➡️ Reality 🤪 Made it at home but Instagram ➡️ Reality 🤪 Made it at home but took the kids to have lunch with Jayson One benefit of working from home is getting able to make what I actually feel like eating, when I’m ready to eat! I saw some Philly Cheesesteaks on tv and thought that sounded delicious! Except I didn’t have yummy buns or steak. But, I easily improvised 🙃 6oz chicken breast 1 low carb tortilla (15g of fiber!!) 30g green pepper 30g onion 15g queso - homemade cheese sauce would have been much better, but the queso was 👌🏼 Salt & pepper, a dash of ground oregano & thyme One was enough to fill me up, even as my only meal so far today.
