Mmm Oatmeal
Morning!
I woke up feeling super duper tired this morning, but I hopped out of bed anyway and headed out for a run with Kona again. It was almost as if she was feeling lazy this morning because she was just sorta trotting along this morning rather than all gung-ho like she usually is, but that was ok with me. We went about a mile and half at a steady pace.
Even though we didnt go real fast and it was cooler out, I was pretty sweaty when we headed back to the apartment. It usually takes a little more intense of a workout for me to get a good sweat going…. maybe I was just sweatin’ out some toxins?

By the time I got back to the apartment, I hadn’t realized but it was 8:10 already!! I hurried into the shower and got ready in a FLASH! Not really, but unfortunately I did have tos kip washing my hair which was supposed to be done today, it is possible it may look a little greasy by end of today… Ponytail time!
When I got to work I hurried to make a cup of coffee and breakfast before we had to open at 9. This is why I usually like to get here between 8:30 and 8:45 so I have time to get all my stuff together before I have to start the work process.
We are sadly out of beans for the espresso maker at work (insert pouting). And then I remembered I had these in my purse…
Remember these that I got the other day while I was stranded at Starbucks for an hour and a half? And yeah, they were still in my purse, oops.
I heated some water in my coffee cup, mixed in the contents of one packet and then added some ice and milk. It was really good! I got the espresso strength ones because I like my coffee to be stronger and it was strong, I ended up having to add a little extra milk but it sure hit the spot!
I enjoyed it alongside some plain oatmeal (with a little honey mixed in) topped with a sliced banana.
Yep, you heard right, I didnt enjoy my usual sugary apple cinnamon in a starting effort to clean up my eating a little bit. I survived
Speaking of which, I really appreciate everyones comments and emails yesterday. I was surprised I actually got quite a few emails on the matter in regards to people’s stories (that they wanted to share in private) and revelations of how they came to eating better and from a few that were hoping to clean up their eating as well!
I hope everyone has a great day!

Do you always sweat a lot during your workout? Is it easy for you to break a sweat?
I dont know why but it takes a bit for me to start sweating!
What is your favorite way to make/eat oats?
I’m going to have to do a little experimenting as I transition out of my pre-made sugary type










See my post from yesterday. I’ve given up oatmeal. Permanently. And I’m good with that decision. Ha!
Haha I just read that right after I posted this morning. Funny because my best friend hates oatmeal too for the texture reason! I love it just need to find ways to make it the non-instant way
But damn that parfait looked good too!
I need to try overnight oats because it is way too hot for any other kind:) Ponytail day for me everyday! Great job on your run gorgeous girl!
Aw thanks, im trying on the running! I’m gonna test out some overnight oats soon I’m thinking.
And how dare they classify Janae as spam!?
Yay for the run!! I miss running with my ex-Pug, Artie… pugs actually make fun little running buddies!
Sometimes I forget how satisfying PLAIN oats are with just some simple touches like banana
Great job on the ‘clean-up’!! And still super satisfying, no?
I always wondered how those Via things tasted….
It takes A LOT for me to sweat too. But now that I am running longer distances, and it’s been humid out…. I am sweating like never before. It’s gross haha
You know I am a weird obsession with green oats. I am addicted.
oh you know i will be trying those green oats at some point and you will see/hear about it when I do!!
Aww I am picturing a little pug running their short little legs out so funny! I always see one of the ladies that lives in our apartment complex running with her pug and mini weiner dog, they must get a good workout with their little legs going 100 mph! Dogs are such good exercise buddies!
i love those starbucks via! so yummy!
I am a such a sweaty mess! Sometimes I dont get how people around me are not sweating at all and I’m totally gross! LOL
haha thats ok sometimes i get sweat envy where I am like dang everyone else is all sweaty and im working my ass off i want to be a sweaty mess too!!!
