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
<\/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 <\/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 <\/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 <\/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 <\/a><\/p>\n Midafternoon called for a snack.<\/p>\n <\/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 <\/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 Learning to Ask for Help<\/a><\/p>\n and<\/p>\n How to Raise a Healthy Eater in 10 Easy Steps<\/a><\/p>\n No pressure to click \u2018like\u2019, but if you feel so inclined, I\u2019d appreciate your support!<\/p>\n Also, check out some other great posts from my mom friends<\/p>\n Boobs: The Obligatory Breastfeeding Post<\/a> by Presley<\/a><\/p>\n Learning to Love my Mom Body<\/a> by Madeline<\/a><\/p>\n Giving Thanks for Perspective<\/a> by Katie<\/a><\/p>\n Fitting in Exercise as a New Mom<\/a> by Jen<\/a><\/p>\n The Final Feeding<\/a> by Emily<\/a><\/p>\n We Survived Colic One Bounce at a Time<\/a> by Hallie<\/a><\/p>\n It Took 9 Months to Put it On<\/a> by Maria<\/a><\/p>\n Banishing the Baby Bulge<\/a> by Amanda<\/a><\/p>\n I Refuse to Call my One-Year-Old a Toddler<\/a> by Ashley<\/a><\/p>\n Whew- lots of good reads there! Let\u2019s in on a Hailey selfie that she took before bed last night, just because it makes me laugh.<\/p>\n
