I'm tired. Bella woke up just before 5 am today & decided she was not
going back to sleep. I was trying to think of a breakfast full of
healthy carbs that would wake me up & Bella and I would both like. We
went with whole wheat pancakes with peanut butter & "jelly" pancakes.
I usually stick with different oatmeal variations but the early rise
made me feel like I deserved a treat.

Whole Wheat Peanut Butter & "Jelly" Pancakes For Two

Whole Wheat Pancakes Pictures, Images and Photos

1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp Whole wheat flour (you canexpirement with other
types of whole grain flour)
1/2 cup milk or milk sub
2 eggs
1 1/4 tsp baking powder
Cinnamon & stevia to taste

Mix all ingrediants. Heat on a medium heat pan and flip when bubbles
beging to appear.

Jelly Topping
1/2 berries (I used blueberries)
2 packets of stevia
2 tbsp water
Mix ingredients together and heat in a sauce pan until warm. Spread
peanut butter over pancakes and drizzle with sauce.

This is one of my favorite breakfast treats. I usually save them for
when I need extra energy for a lot of cardio in the morning or days
like today when my coffee just isn't cutting it.

Plans for today so far:

Cardio + Weights
Clean house
Yoga
Maybe go shopping
Budget planning
Look around the internet for a new camera, Bella broke mine and I'm tired of cheap little $99 cameras so I'm hoping to get one for my birthday which is coming up.

Sharing :)

This morning I shared my breakfast with Bella (my toddler) which made
things a lot easier since I'm a zombie in the morning and sometimes
don't feel like making two seperate meals. We shared a bannana, a
slice of whole grain bread with peanut butter, and a bowl of plain
yogurt with a little bit of Kashi cereal sprinkled on top.

Today's workout:
Core Circuit:
Ball tuck
Push ups w/feet on stability ball
Stability ball plank

Legs & Back Circuit:
Deadlift to upright row
DB Pullover on a stability ball
Split squats
Dumbell row (prone on a stability ball)
Glute bridge with feet on ball

Maybe some cardio? Depends on the heat!
