Lean Bodies Health and Fitness

This morning I almost didn’t get up.  If it wasn’t for the fact that I was running with Saundra I probobly would have stayed in bed!  I’m glad I got up though because we had a great run and some good girl bonding time.

After my run I had a bowl of Strawberry Overnight Oats.  It was really great!

The night before I put these things in the bowl:

• 1/3 cup oats
• 1/3 cup milk
• 1/3 cup plain yogurt
• 1 T. homemade sugar free strawberry syrup

    

This morning I topped it all off with:

• 1/4 cup cottage cheese
• 1 T. flax seed
• Strawberries
• 1 T. peanut butter
• Stevia

It made a great big bowl and tasted really good to my hungry tummy!

After taking Caleb to school I wanted to try out this homemade protein bar recipe I got from a friend.

• 4 scoops chocolate protein powder
• 1/4 cup peanut butter
• 2/3 cup flax seed
• 1/2 cup water
• Splenda/Granulated Stevia to taste

Mix all that together in a bowl.  It’s going to be hard to mix.  Just keep on stirring.

I then pressed it all into a bread pan and pressed some chocolate chips and coconut into the top. 

    

That mixture is in the freezer and when it’s hardened I will get it out and cut it into 6 bars to individually wrap.

I plan on having one with a smoothie for lunch so I’ll tell you all how they are! 

I have a lot on my to do list for today:

• Laundry
• Plan tomorrow’s workouts for clients
• Cut veggies for salads
• Make a CD for camp tomorrow
• Email clients about camp
• Update my blog books
• Spring clean:  organize the “computer desk area”

I hope you are all have a great morning so far!
