My mission in life is to not merely survive, but to thrive: and do so with passion, compassion, humor, and style. – Maya Angelou

An eternal optimist, always wearing a smile. Must haves: sunshine, fitness (jogging, weight training, & CrossFit), reading, good food, writing, music, and fun with family and friends.

Eat!

About 45 minutes ago, I completed a shoulder workout.

I pushed myself at the gym, but the nudging hasn’t stopped. How’s that?

Post workout eating is just as important as the weight training.

I am not hungry!

But I still have to choke these oats and eggs down. Ugh!

eggs
Plain Jane hard-boiled eggs. I usually sprinkle my eggs with freshly ground black pepper, but this morning I forgot.
oats
Organic steel oats (prepared in advance in a crock pot), with skinless apples, cinnamon, nutmeg, flax-seed, chia seeds, water and almond milk. Before reheating, I added one banana, more cinnamon, and almond milk. Filling and DELISH!

Some days, eating is more demanding than the real workout. Surprise! Surprise!

Have a great day!
