Keep avoiding it!

I am purposely avoiding my blog so I don't have to face the truth.
I got down to 201 last month, but now I'm back up to 210.
I haven't worked out in months, been eating junk food like it's full of nutrients, etc.
It's time to get back on track!

I stumbled upon Olga's site just last night via Pinterest.
You+Me=Fit is an inspiring site to live healthier.
With hundreds of these types of sites I had already looked at, I was feeling pretty down. Whatever was said couldn't seem to get me out of my funk.
Olga has a post called "Waking Up Early for Exercise" and although I have no trouble waking up, I do have trouble with breakfast.

Olga found the recipe at gimmesomeoven.com and so graciously shared with her readers!

Protein Poppers!

I made the base ingredients first, just to see how I would like it.
1 cup Oatmeal
1/2 cup flax seeds
1/2 cup sunflower seed butter
1/4 cup honey
all rolled into a 1-inch ball.

Delicious and full of those nutrients you need!
Perfect for a quick meal or snack.
Olga said this would make 20-30 balls depending on how big you make them..
I started to make them small, but they gradually got bigger as I went.
Only made 18. Oops!



With these, I should actually eat in the morning. YAY!

With that taken care of, the motivation to continue working out!
I've finally gotten an iPhone. Yes I know, hate all you want.
There is an app called Endomondo that times how long you work out, uses GPS to track how far you've gone, you can compete with friends, etc.
I figure, I will start out with simple walks. Just so I know where to start.
By the end of one month (or two) I should be jogging/going further!

My life is finally coming together, and I just want to thank all of you for sticking by my side through it all. Even if I didn't reach out to you!

Let's lose these inches!
