Hello there...

Hello Everyone, We have officially completed one whole month of the new year! How have you guys been doing so far? I hope you are all planning your meals well and trying to get some sort of physical activity in your day. January was alright for me. I only had a total weight loss of 3lbs. (I did gain a pound, so I went from 4 to 3). One thing that has helped me out a lot is making sure I have my breakfast ready in a fast way (thank goodness for instant oatmeal), and planning out my lunches during the week. I have some great recipes which I will share with you in a later post :-) How have you guys been doing? What do you find to be your biggest challenge?

***Recipe Alert: Breakfast Bean Bowl***

Good Morning Ppls!! Let's not forget that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. There is nothing more satisfying than a heart healthy, fiber filling, wholesome breakfast :-). Here's a great breakfast bowl that's quick and easy. Ingredients: One egg, fried in one teaspoon of oil(blot the excess oil off with a paper towel) 1/2c. Pinto beans 1 slice of Kraft extra thin sliced deli swiss cheese Salt/pepper to taste 1 tsp. Hot and Spicy Steak sauce In a bowl, add the beans, then top with the egg and cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Nuke this in the microwave for about 30 seconds, to slightly melt the cheese. Top off with the steak sauce. Enjoy :-) For 4 WW pts you get over 8 grams of fiber from the beans, and a dose of healthy fat from the egg yolk! Not bad. PS: pic will be posted tonight!!
