Eggs-sadilla

Good morning everyone! First, I just want to say thank you for all the nice words about me and my sassy short hair (so much fun to add sassy in front of it). I feel more myself with short hair. And I appreciate everyone’s suggestions and opinions on what haircut they like. I think I’ve narrowed it down to two cuts–we will see what it ends up looking like tonight! I’ll have pics, don’t you worry? .

Also, I’m glad everyone liked my MOVES from the other day. I’m glad you guys still like me and read after seeing my dancing skills.

I could NOT get to sleep last night. I was sort of stressing–over nothing really–and that stupid commercial..the one that goes “HEFTY HEFTY HEFTY” kept playing in my head. Wasn’t helping the stress!

I’m kicking butt on my Move it in the Morning Challenge. I got up both Monday and this morning for a morning workout. Really, its just the first 10 minutes of being up that stinks. I’m cussing at the world, but then, once I’m awake and at the gym, I’m singing it’s praises. How are you doing on the move it in the morning challenge?

Some mornings, I wake up hungry. Some don’t. This was a “yes, I’m hungry morning.” A family friend recently bought me TWO JARS of Peanut Butter & Co Cinnamon Raison Swirl, so I knew I had to use that for a pre-workout snack. A sandwich thin slice and some peanut butter always does the trick.

My workout was a good and fun circuit! I saw it on How Sweet Eats blog yesterday and I knew it was a go for my morning workout. Click here for the link to her page on this workout!

5 min warm up

5 mins intense cardio (I used the elliptical…increases in resistance every minute from 5-9)

30 walking lunges

10 pull ups (I use the assisted pullup machine when needed)

75 second plank hold

20 push ups

REPEAT 5 TIMES

5 minute cool down

I loved this workout for a few reasons. Mainly, I loved  that it combined cardio & strength training. The workout flew by and the cardio broke up the strength training nicely.

I got home, showered up quickly, talked to my hair that is going to be chopped off today, and then starting brainstorming for breakfast.

I’m very much a SAVORY breakfast girl. You will hardly see me eating oatmeal or yogurt for breakfast. I want hot sauce and eggs and cheese. That’s what my tummy craves in the morning.

One of my absolute favorite easy meal is quesadillas. There are so many different variations that it can have endless combos.

This morning I decided to do a EGGS-SADILLA.

It included a La Tortilla Factory tortilla, 1 egg, 1 egg whites, lots-of-cheddar cheese, spinach, jalapenos, and green & yellow peppers. Oh, and Frank’ Hot Sauce.

Yes, I really really like spicy food. The hotter the better for me.

I also enjoyed it with a few strawberries.

Lastly, it’s time to announce the TOTAL MONEY MAKEOVER winner! The winner receives the CD audio of Dave Ramsey’s best seller, Total Money Makeover.

Are you hungry first thing in the morning?

Is there ever a commercial jingle that gets stuck in your head? Last night mine was the hefty hefty hefty…during holidays I always get the BC Clarks song stuck in my head (is that just in OK?)
