I am a habitual breakfast skipper. Bad, I know. I've been doing so much better for many months and rarely miss brekkie, so what the heck? I got busy for one thing. And the hunger I felt did go away. I've cleaned, been working on laundry, done some Wii Fit. Now i have to have breakfast, no matter the time. So I'm making a smoothie:
I just don't feel like cooking today, so here it is. I had to clean out a drawer in my search for the flax seed, but that's a good thing. Here is the end result:
It tastes good, I guess. I'm just not a smoothie fan. Some people love love lovethem and go ape over them - me? I'd rather chew and enjoy my calories. This was just for a change. I used 1 Cup strawberried, 1 cup plain ff yogurt, 1 cup mango/guava juice, 2 tbsp ground flax seed, 1 heaping scoop weigh protein powder. Blend. Not being an expert on these things, I don't even know if this was a "healthy" concoction. Seems like it oughta be - got fruit, dairy, protein, fiber. Sounds like health food to me.
Yesterday was such a joy! For dinner I made broccoli -Birds Eye steamers - which is about 4 cups. That's a lot, I know. I also made 8 oz of baked haddock. I ate all the broccoli and could only eat half the fish. What??? I know! I didn't even have my nightly bowl of rice krispies. Maybe because I ate at 8:00 pm? OOps. And I did 30 minutes walking on top of a biggest loser strength workout in addition to 30 minutes of Wii fit. What a good day.
This morning I found another friend on Facebook. One of my best friends from my college days in La Crosse. Dammit people, it's such a weekend of blessings I'm having. And that treasure box of clothes - some of them are a little big! Most fit just right. Whooohoooo.
I'm chatting with my pal from La Crosse, so I'm outta here. Got smoothie feedback? Hit me up.
PS - just don't tell me to try bananas in my smoothie - I'm allergic...unless you WANT my throat to close completely.
