A full day around the city — a protein hit, a sweet gift from hubby, a mom-son date, and enough walking to earn the pizza that closed it out.

Protein O'Clock

First stop, Juice Generation: "When mommy needs to hit her protein intake. 20g protein açai beauty bowl it is!" — banana and strawberry stacked on top, straight from the counter.

Curls In The Car

A curling reveal from the passenger seat — "And it looks gorgeous" — followed by the reason why: "Hubby got me a wireless @ghd_northamerica flat iron so I can save time and do my curls in the car. Love him for knowing exactly what I need!"

Then out onto the street — yellow cabs, sunshine, a straight shot down a Manhattan avenue.

Mom-Son Date

Lunch at Little Collins NYC with her son @ahaan_bansal28 — a granola, yogurt and peach bowl on the table while he got lost in "Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Double Down." Simply captioned: "Mom and son date."

Comfy Shoes, Big Miles

"When you're in NYC, walking is only easy when you're wearing comfy shoes" — black sneakers by @dreampairsshoes, put to work on the sidewalk.

And after all that walking: "When you try to eat healthy but pizza has other plans" — a mozzarella and tomato slice, extra chili flakes, no regrets.
