Because I eat mostly whole foods but supplement with protein shakes and protein snacks just isn't as catchy...

Well, this is awkward…

Well, this is awkward. I don’t have an exciting protein-based recipe for you today since I’ve been taking it easy. Translation: I have a sinus infection and have been crawling under my covers and not eating because I can’t taste much except my own mucous. Too much information? Deal with it.

I am now enjoying the wonders of modern medicine. All hail antibiotics! (Note: if you purchased a large quantity of Kimberly-Clark stock last week – the makers of Kleenex – you would now be able to afford Jay Robb or Vega in bulk. Apologies that my hot stock tip came too late.)

I might make an appearance at the gym later for yoga, hoping that sinus drainage on one’s yoga mat does not qualify as one of the following faux-pas.

See the whole illustrated list of gym etiquette blunders at AwkwardWorkouts.com. And while you’re off gallivanting across the web, make sure to visit Charlotte’s great post: The Top 5 Most Embarrassing Exercise Moves, to which I need to add my Abs with a Mat (warning: don’t perform this move in public view or you will have more dinner dates than you can handle.)

Hope you have a great “Humpday” doing the awkward workout of your choice!

  2. Allie,
    Add in all the Kleenex I've used over the past week, and you could afford to buy Jay Robb himself. So much snot...will it ever end?!?

    Hope you're feeling 100% soon!

  6. The Tammy Faye! Love it. Possibly slightly above "all whored up."

    I am officially "over the hump!" Thank heavens as I'm out of Kleenex. Hope you're better too Heather!

    Charlotte - did you get a date out of Abs with a Mat?

  9. Aw feel better! Sinus infections are the worst I get them a lot. If you haven't already I totally recommend taking extra-strength Mucinex, it really does help. And I should totally be the spokesperson for this stuff.
