Sure enough, after my night of Mexican food and a Negro Modelo, I got my groove back. I really credit the cardio strength class I had lined up. It\u2019s what motivated me to eat a good breakfast.<\/p>\n

\"wiaw-<\/a><\/p>\n

2 scrambled eggs with salsa on Ezekiel toast, 1.5 slices of bacon and 1\/2 a pear<\/em><\/p>\n

I eat my main breakfast with Hailey around 8:00am, so I usually need a little snack when I first get up at 6:00am.<\/p>\n

\"wiaw-<\/a><\/p>\n

1\/2\u00a0 banana, Juice Plus gummies and coffee<\/em><\/p>\n

Juice Plus is back in my life! But more abut that another day. Where was I? Oh yeah\u2026 cardio strength class. It kicked. My. Butt. in the best way.<\/p>\n

\"cardio<\/a><\/p>\n

I tend to start thinking I\u2019m pretty strong and fit, then a class like this humbles me and I wake up in the morning aching from shoulders to calves.<\/p>\n

But, the class worked. It hit my reset button and I left with renewed vigor for health and longing to fill my stomach with the good stuff.<\/p>\n

\"wiaw-<\/a><\/p>\n

Mixed baby kale and greens with homemade tuna salad, carrots, brown rice chips and hummus.<\/em><\/p>\n

I love this hummus sampler I found at Whole Foods. It cost about the same as one package of Sabra.<\/p>\n

\"wiaw-<\/a><\/p>\n

Midafternoon called for a snack.<\/p>\n

\"wiaw-<\/a><\/p>\n

Handful of Blue Diamond almonds and Chobani Bite<\/em><\/p>\n

Have you tried the new Chobani bites? Hailey loved the fig and orange zest, but I am partial to this coffee with dark chocolate. It has real chunks of dark chocolate in the yogurt and makes for a great afternoon pick-me-up! It held me over until dinner.<\/p>\n

\"wiaw-<\/a><\/p>\n

Romaine blend, black beans, avocado, tomatoes, feta, jalapenos and spicy shrimp with buffalo ranch<\/em><\/p>\n

By far, one of my favorite salads. I licked my plate clean just so I wouldn\u2019t waste any buffalo ranch.<\/p>\n

And now,for your reading pleasure, Babble<\/a> is hosting a Best of Blogs contest and the posts chosen will be part of an e-book or possibly a printed book. I nominated two of my posts that are most dear to me-<\/p>\n
