Home.

I can't exercise at much, I sleep more, and cook more.

I guess I'll have to wait until I get back to Pullman to really continue Jillian's recommended plan for me...

but here's what I've been eating that's still pretty healthy!

My peanut butter/chocolate chip oatmeal, but using old-fashioned oats. Surprisingly, I actually like the taste of my instant oats better!

Here's a yogurt parfait I concocted.. 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (160 calories) + 1/2 cup frozen berries (35 calories) + 1/2 cup super-healthy-high-fiber cereal (100 calories) = super fun at only 295 calories.. heck this would even make a good dessert.


This morning: oatmeal pancakes with real maple syrup and bananas! Success.

Oatmeal Pancakes

Whisk together:

1/2 cup flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

Beat in separate bowl:

2 eggs

Stir in:

1 1/2 cups cooked oatmeal (about 1 cup uncooked)

1/2 cup milk

2 tablespoons melted butter

"Quickly stir this mixture into the dry ingredients."

Cook like normal pancakes.

*I added 1/4 cup slightly crunched pecans to the batter for a little more holiday crunch*
