Rising Up

This morning my alarm went of at 5:15am, and “Eye of the Tiger” was PLAYING! It was a true motivator for me to get my butt to the gym and pump some iron. I did day 2 of “Making the Cut” and my sit ups and pushups.

This morning I couldn’t wait for breakfast, I am in love with Muesli.

Last night I soaked:

• 1/2 cup Oats
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 cup soy milk
• vanilla extract
• honey
• cinnamon
• PB2
• 1 tablespoon Ground Flax

This morning I added in:

• 1/2 cup light cottage cheese
• Crushed Pecans
• Fresh Grapes
• Blueberries
• Bobbi’s Granola Greatness

All mixed UP!

Sad I ran out of bananas this weekend, but because I am really watching our budget and bananas are the ONLY thing we need at the Market I don’t think it’s worth the trip. 

I am glad that you all loved the Vlog last night, it was totally informal and spur of the moment. I promise we will do some more fun ones! I guess wearing the same PJ’s all week isn’t so bad, and I like the ideas readers gave about just sleeping in my Birthday Suit;).

Time to get to work…

Check out Carrots N Cake today, Tina talks about rating your breakfast with NuVal which is a nutritional scoring system that rates foods on a scale of 1-100, based on how nutritious they are. I am headed over there right now!!

Question: How would you rate my breakfast??
