pump up your oatmeal volume (vid inside!) + Pink and Treat Halloween 5k
/
top of the morning! i have thoroughly enjoyed letting moderation back into my diet since we returned from Maui last month but i'm still holding tight to 16-17% body fat. i absolutely do not weigh myself daily and i don't plan on ever doing that again. they say 'never say never' but that is definitely one thing i can say 'never' about.
i love it here and that's what matters. let it GO, ladies.
once home, i made my usual 'expanding oatbran' and i took my periscope viewers along for the ride this time! check out the vid i was able to shoot interruption-free since my boys were still snoring away once i arrived. adding volume to your food keeps you full longer between meals and ya get to eat MORE for relatively the same nutritional stats, hello! love sharing little tips like these and i hope my oatmeal loving peeps appreciate this one too.
Chiso still may hate veggies...but that boy LOVES oatmeal. he specifically requested oatmeal with raisins this morning for breakfast before school. made me smile seriously big as i made it for him. sometimes we eat out of real bowls... sometimes most of the time we do tupperware. bikini prep life changed me apparently, haha.

then we got silly! this week is Red Ribbon Week at preschool so every day the students get to wear something fun and non-traditional. Chiso couldn't wait to wear his workout gear today and he is ecstatic about wearing jammies (pajamas) on thursday! we got a quick workout in after breakfast since he was already dressed for the part. somebody tell me WHY Dego has more muscles than Chiso and i combined though!?
we are doing all this work but all he does is sleep, eat, & poop. hmph.
k, last thang!
i'm runnin' in the Susan G. Koman Pink and Treat 5k this coming saturday, yall!!
i am also raising funds for breast cancer research and awareness and i'm on a mission to reach my goal. i would love your support in helping me get there; any and everything is APPRECIATED!!! i want to give a special shout out to my friends and family who have already donated and definitely those who still plan to do so! we have just 4 days left til' race day. again, i am forever grateful for your support and thank you in advance.

Q: do you 'celebrate' Halloween? why or why not?
