Stocked up!

Went and got a Costco membership yesterday. They have a great selection of organic foods, and in large portions which is great!! Hope it will save from running to the store every other day for fruits!

Sunday yumm!

Made what I shall call, "tastes like oatmeal but heated in the oven". That's exactly what it is. I saw a few pictures floating around on the net of oatmeal bakes and decided I could make one. It wasn't half bad and I am sure I will make it again. I will check out a few recipes and tweak it a bit though. Not bad for a first try. I just mixed almond milk, oats, flax meal, cinnamon, vanilla, almonds, Splenda brown sugar and frozen berries. Popped it in the oven for a bit, and it's pretty good! John said it was "hmmmm, pretty good" and came back for a few more bites! Encouraging! :)
Have a great day!!

Blah!

So other than working out today and doing laundry I have been having a blah day! Oh wait...I made peanut butter cookies...and ate three!!! (they are the bomb) Worst eating day I have had in almost two months. Weather? Maybe. Bored? Maybe. Who knows, back at it tomorrow though!

Happy valentines!!

Tried to make some healthy teats for the kiddos, this is what I came up with.
The cakes are my version of a recipe I got from Dashing Dish and they are yummy!!! ...they also got some not do healthy treats! :)

What's up!!??

Hope everyone had a great weekend! The family has been keen to just hang out lately, which really drives me nuts! Ha! Ha! I did get some yummy cooking in this weekend and kept John and I on our workouts. Forced the kids to bundle up (winter finally arrived) and that's about it! Hope you did something way more exciting!!
The links for these recipes are on my Facebook page, and I will post on here when I get in front of the computer.
The sit for the lasagna and muffins, is dashing dish! Love her!! Check it our!!

Keeping busy...

Having a little friendly competition with Jacob while we wait at dance class! We also did wall squats and plank. He killed me on pushups, did 55 to my 35. I kicked his butt though on the other two!! :)

Food journal

Do you keep one? I started keeping one last month and I love it. Really helps keep me in track an eating the right amount. I have been trying to eat every couple hours and writing things down seems to help! I also write my workouts in.

I use my kindle fire note app for my journal. I am not a big counter of calories, I really just try to eat a lot of veggies, protein, fruits and whole grains. Staying away from most packaged items, so this app is fine for me. I know they have some great other ones out there, like "my fitness pal".
