I have a question for all you runners out there? Should I or should I not exercise twice in one. Let’s say I wanted to do 30 minutes on the elliptical in the morning but also wanted to sneak a run in, would that be okay or pushing it? (I am a non-runner who is trying to run her first 5k)

Last night I made a breakfast cookie: (inspired by Meghann)
1/2 cup of oats
some baked apple
homemade applesauce (no sugar added)
cinnamon
1/2 scoop of vanilla protein powder
Almond butter

I put it in the fridge overnight and this morning plopped it in the micro for 20 secs and bam! Breakfast! I’m not going to lie…I was a wee bit scared.

On my way to PA to get some Danskos for my new job! (Check!)

For dinner I tried acorn squash with applesauce and I had 2 oz of chicken (50), spinach & tomato (15) AND butternut squash(40)  I only ate the 1/2 the applesauce out of the acorn squash and a bite or 2 of the acorn squash itself.
