Niki's Neverending Adventure

Well, I did it! I finally tried overnight oats!! But first, let’s back up to the start of my morning :)

I got up at 5:15am so I could get a boot camp workout in before my 8:30am class this morning. When the alarm went off, I considered staying in my nice warm bed, but then I remembered how good I would feel after my workout! So I drug my butt out of bed and got started!! I did a 15 minute boot camp workout that alternated 1 minute of cardio (jump rope, jumping jacks, running in place, dancing, etc.) and 2 different strength moves (lunges, squats, military press, bicep curls, push-ups, etc.). Then I also did today's Whittle My Middle 2 Challenge. So, I ended up doing about a 25 minute strength workout. Perfect! And as I imagined, I felt GREAT afterwards!!

So anyway, back to the overnight oats… I have seen this concept all over the blog world and have really been wanting to try it! I thought this morning would be perfect, since I would be kinda in a time “crunch” to fit everything in before class! Last night, I mixed together 1 container Low fat Blueberry yogurt and 1/4 cup oats. I refrigerated it over night and topped it with a small sliced banana and a spoonful of PB. DELISH!

 

 

I am so glad I FINALLY tried this! Y’all will definitely being seeing this breakfast more often!!

Of course I had my morning cup o’joe!

And look what else I discovered…

An almost empty PB jar! Looks like we will be seeing Oats in a Jar VERY soon!!

Well, I have to be going. Off to class! I’m still doing the *snow dance* for tonight! Looks like we will be getting some, just not sure how much! Yeah!! Have a great day!!
