Would you guys believe that I’m still sore today from Monday’s BodyCombat class?
Seriously. I mean, I’m not complaining; I love knowing that I got such a great workout. But I never thought a 45 minute kickboxing class would leave me sore three days later. Apparently I haven’t been working as many muscles as I thought up in there. Sheesh!
That being said, I was a little nervous about how this morning’s BodyPump class would go, but luckily everything worked out smoothly and it ended up being a great class. I followed things up with an easy 15 minutes on the elliptical before heading back home to shower up and make some breakfast.
I think after writing up last night’s post with my cereal combo bowl, there was really no way of getting around it today. I had to have one!
In the mix:
- Quaker Oatmeal Squares
- Kashi Heart to Heart
- Fiber One 80 Calorie Honey Squares
- blueberries
- banana slices (1/2 a banana)
- unsweetened vanilla almond milk
What’s missing:
- Chia seeds…darn it!
Along with a little iced coffee action…
Always a winning combo.

Going to a BBQ? Here’s some 4th of July Recipe Ideas!
So if your schedule is anything like mine, then you may have some party plans coming up for the holiday weekend. I’m still working on making up my list of what to make, so here are some recipe ideas that I may end up using…and maybe you could, too!
Creamy Fruit & Tortellini Salad
Want to make it festive? Just use the red & blue fruits..strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries!
You can eat boatloads of this without feeling guilty! (Well, at least I do)
This recipe is awesome…and I had totally forgotten about it!
And of course…we can’t forget the SWEETS!
Stars & Stripes Sugar Cookie Cake
One of my favorite sugar cookie + frosting combinations…it’s amazing!
Chocolate Chip Cookie Cups with Almond Buttercream Frosting
Just go ahead and make your frosting red…or blue…or BOTH!
Neapolitan Cupcakes with Ice Cream Frosting
You could always skip the chocolate layer and just dye it blue to make a festive red, white, and blue cupcake!
Always a hit…and so many flavors to choose from! Just top with your favorite frosting.
Hopefully now you’ve got some ideas in case you didn’t have any before!
Questions for the Morning:
Are you doing any cooking/baking this weekend? (You betcha!)
What do you typically like to contribute to parties/bbq’s? (<—Dessert for me!)
Are you “known” to always bring a certain dish? (<—I’m the sweets gal!)
