I did it!

Good morning!  I feel great this morning!  Know why?  Because I set my alarm for 5 am and actually got up to work out when it went off instead of resetting it for an hour (or more!) later.  And somehow I still have time to be blogging right now!  

Before my workout, I had one slice of Right Wheat bread with some PB and a small glass of milk.  I know some people have issues with drinking milk before they work out but I am definitely not one of those.  As a matter of fact, I think milk is a great mix of carb and protein for a preworkout "snack". 

At the gym, I did 4 miles on the treadmill and some abs.  I really slack on doing ab workouts because it is just not my favorite but I think I need to incorporate this into my week more!  Any suggestions?  

Breakfast was some tasty banana oats. 

In the bowl: 

• 1/3 cup oats, vanilla soy milk, water
• 1 banana
• 2 spoonfuls of ground flax
• 1 spoonful of PB stirred in at the end
• Sprinkle of ~1/4 cup maple granola (yum!)
