What Happens If You Don't Eat Breakfast

Hey NeverEver's!

Welcome to the day before Fourth of July! Or in some places it might already be the Fourth of July. If it is I hope you are all sleeping well!

However, I want to do this post about something very important. Something that I thought I didn't need. Or at least not all the time. Something that we all over look sometimes.

Its called -- Breakfast!

Yup Breakfast. I didn't have it today. Today until lunch wasn't fun...it wasn't fun at all. Plus I wasn't able to do my Lunch Run because I was too hungry!

Yup...I was not happy with myself. Here is how I felt this morning.

• Very Hungry
• Hunger made me Irritable
• Low Energy
• Could only think about food
• Not able to do my Lunch Run

Now when I do have breakfast? Either my Shakeology or a Breakfast item I am

• Not Hungry
• My Stomach doesn't dictate my mood
• I don't have food on my mind (which makes it easier to pass up office cake, cookies and donuts
• Energy is good
• I CAN do my Lunch Run

The differences are amazing. And I personally like not having my mind on food and making me hungrier. So Breakfast is EXTREMELY important. Plus this is just what my opinion on the matter is. Here is the Expert Opinions

• Gives you Energy for ALL day
• Establishes a Healthy Eating Pattern 
• More efficient at Work
• Helps get your nutrients early in the day
• Helps with Weight Control

So I am making it a goal to make sure I am out of the house WITH breakfast. Even if I am running late the benefits of having my breakfast really out weighs not having it. 

Today was Day 0 for Anime Expo! So many people, it took 2 hours to get through the pre-registration line. I swear if it wasn't so cheap to get the tickets early I would just buy them at day 0...that line had no one in it lol. But, Hubby and I were dancing (more shuffling) through the line and it is gonna be worth it! 

After heading home I told the Hubby that I wanted to do a workout. He wasn't into the idea, which its his choice so thats fine, so I went with something new today instead of using Hip Hop Ab's. 

Yup, I did Slim in 6. I felt that my left leg was just a little too tight for all the jumping Hip Hop Ab's has me do. So Slim in 6 was just perfect! It is a great workout that really does push me, I just happen to like all that jumping Shaun T has me doing ^_^. 

Okay NeverEver's, I am getting tired. It is time for me to hit the bed. I hope you all have a wonderful Fourth of July and don't forget t check out my Special Motivational Thursday tomorrow ^_~

The Breakfast Cupcake!

Hey NeverEver's!

Welcome to Wednesday. You have made it to the half way point, pat yourself on the back...and then shake it like you just don't care ^_^. Okay...I promise to not be weird anymore.

On SuperBowl Sunday I was in the mood to cook. Might have to do with the fact that I couldn't sleep the night before and stayed up looking at Pinterest or maybe it had to do with the fact that I had company coming over and wanted to put out the best food possible with my budget.

Either of those reasons would work, but I really didn't care I just wanted to cook. So I started with breakfast.

And breakfast was good. In fact it was delicious! even my picky Father in law liked it, which is saying something. It was also something I wanted to share with you. But there is something I need to share first:

I did get the idea of a pin on pinterest but the link was broken and I cannot seem to find the original by searching it. So I am fully stating right now that this idea is not an original of mine, I just can't find an un-broken link to link it up. If the creator does read this, or if you know of an un-broken link, I would be more then happy to link this to you! 

Now with that fully stated let me share with you how I cooked it. Above is how it looked like going into the oven and the first picture is how it looked like coming out ^_^.

Here is the recipe as I created it, but again the idea came from else where.

With this being the first recipe I have really ever shared with you all it has got me all tied up. On one hand I am proud and happy to be sharing with you something that I made! On the other hand...what if you guys hate it. -_- I am not a certified chef. I have been debating the idea of sharing it.

And I decided to share it. Just let me know if you guys do make it how it comes out ok!

Okay NeverEver's! That is it for tonight. Have a great Wednesday and know that the weekend is coming soon!
