Game On!

Today is Ash Wednesday.  It is the start of Lent and the official start of the Passover Lent Off.  I started my day with some in-home yoga care of Gwen Lawrence.  She teaches power yoga to the New York Giants... and now to me via GaiamTV.  I woke up a bit late so I did upper body and core.  I skipped lower body since I plan to work lower body later today. (Either treadmill or kickboxing class)

I was instructed by Lisa, the warrior princess/fitness guru for the PLO challenge that I should be eating oatmeal.  In 36 years of life, I have never liked oatmeal.  Well, today I confirmed that I still don't like it.  But I did eat it.  Luckily with big pieces of strawberry to get it down.

Mission accepted....

And completed!

Per Lisa, I'll be trying to eat small meals every few hours so I also brought some snacks from home.  I am going to use this week as a trial to see what works for me and then I'll hit up Trader Joe's on the weekend to restock.

Oh yea, game on!

Do you like oatmeal?  How do you make it taste good?
What are you giving up for Lent?
Are you as excited about my challenge as I am?
What should I have for lunch?

  1. Oh I so wish we had Trader Joe's in Dallas! Still waiting, hopefully soon! I love oatmeal, I eat it just about every day during the week. I have put strawberries/blueberries in it and add a little honey. My favorite is adding peanut butter and honey to plain oatmeal, it's delicious and filling!

  2. I know exactly how you feel. The Trader Joe's by me just opened a few months ago and believe me I was counting down the months from when I found out they were opening one.
