Work Out Tip Wednesday

Wow it’s already Wednesday this week is flying by! Today is my rest day so I slept in till 7:30, but still had BAD dreams…I think it might be because I am going to bed so late. Last night after kickboxing hubby and I went to our friends the Spencer’s. Michelle and Chad are wonderful, and we have never had a chance to just hang out with them. It is one of our goals to hang out more with our friends on a one and one basis, and we DID it, off to a good start. It was great, we had pizza and a Caesar salad. The pizza was full of veggies, bell peppers, mushrooms,olives, tomatoes, and there was pepperoni(not veggie o well). I was starving after class so I had two and a half pieces of pizza and a huge salad.

After dinner we played this card game called hand and foot, it was such a fun game! Michelle and I kicked the boys butt, girls RULE! For desert I had 2 Peppermint Joe, Joes, and a cup of black decaf espresso.

For breakfast this morning, I made a warm bowl of pumpkin oats, it’s about time!

Combo:

½ c of oats
3/4 cup almond milk
½ c H2O
¼ c of pumpkin
½ banana sliced
1/4 c dried cranberries
Pinch of pumpkin spice
Handful of flax seed granola
Sprinkle of brown sugar
Spoonful of BARNEY Butter!

I got my Barney Butter in the mail yesterday, O how I have missed you!

Why do I love you so much? 

Per serving you get:
More protein than an egg
As much calcium as 1/4 cup of milk
14% daily fiber
8% daily iron

"Almonds significantly lowered bad cholesterol levels in a study of people with high cholesterol… Almonds are a good source of monounsaturated fat and potentially other beneficial compounds."
