So I was feeling a little lazy this afternoon, and about halfway through the day, I was debating on whether or not I wanted to just skip the gym and head home early. Then, I had one of co-workers come and bring me THIS…
A homemade cream puff!?!?! YUMM!! There was no way I could turn it down 
I must say, however, that I tried to keep mindful eating in check, and decided I only needed to eat half. I savored every last morsel of my half, then I gave the other half to a friend. That was NOT an easy task for me! Pat on the back 
Nonetheless, my extra treat helped make up my mind to stick with my plans for the gym.
Tonight, I attended my usual Tuesday evening BodyAttack class. I know there’s a large following of BodyPump in the blog world, which I’m also a HUGE fan of, but this is also one of my faves. According to the Les Mills website, “BODYATTACK™ is a simple, high-intensity group exercise-to-music class that’s fully optioned to cater for all fitness levels. You’ll experience high-energy sports training moves for cardiovascular fitness, along with upper and lower body conditioning exercises.” It’s a 60 minute class, that keeps you moving the entire time. It’s a GREAT cardio & strength workout, and helps switch things up from the typical running cardio. If you’ve never tried it, I would highly recommend checking it out! 
After getting home and showering, I was feeling pretty ravenous, but Jay and I hadn’t planned anything for dinner (guess I’m off my game from last week?!). So after looking through the fridge, I decided on “Breakfast for Dinner”! I’ve always LOVED breakfast for dinner, whether it be pancakes, waffles, omelets & toast, home fries…you name it! I was craving some fresh veggies, so an omelet it was!
I started by chopping up a bunch of fresh veggies – spinach, tomato, red bell pepper, red onion, & broccoli. I steamed them in the micro for about a minute just to get them a little soft. I love how the colors get so nice and bright!
To make my omelet, I sprayed a pan with some cooking spray, and added in 1/2 cup of Egg Beaters, about 2-3 tbsp reduced fat shredded cheddar, a sprinkle of dried basil, & my steamed goodies
When I make my omelets, I always like to continue scraping down the sides of the pan, to almost form a “lip”. This helps keep the veggies inside, and also helps keep things sturdy in preparation for the “flip”! (I’ve eaten a lot of SAD looking omelets in my day…the flip is not always pretty!) Luckily, today’s was a success!
Along with my omelet, I had a couple pieces of my whole-grain bread (there’s still a TON left since Jay doesn’t like it) with my beloved Blizzard Butter and some strawberry jelly. I’m a big fan of this stuff!
A dinner fit for a BodyAttacker
It’s a pretty safe bet that there will be another soda cupcake consumed later this evening too!
Do you ever have breakfast for dinner?? What’s your favorite?

I always eat breakfast for dinner! Soo good. Plus is just quick and easy!
And nice job on being mindful
It’s great, isn’t it?
And thank you!
Way to balance out the sweet with a healthy meal! I love breakfast for dinner, too. Breakfast is my favorite meal but I don’t always have time to eat yummy eggs and stuff in the morning.
I agree! I wish I had time for a nice big omelet every morning!
