I love looking up recipes, but by the time I get home from work, I don't even want to turn my computer on most days! So I'm making a list here of some recipes I've found that I have been wanting to try. I'll share the results!
Quinoa con pollo
Overnight Oats
I've made these in the past. Need to make them again!
Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chili
As a Texan, it seems against all rules to put beans in chili, but I'm curious about it.
Shrimp Pad Thai
Protein Oatmeal cookies
Crispy Coconut Chicken
Tara Stiles Strawberry shortcake smoothie
Paleo Lemon bars
Paleo Apple Crisp
I am not Paleo, but I love her recipes and will be making these as treats!
Healthy "Shake N Bake"
I am a Mom, lifter, yoga enthusiast, sometimes pilates junkie, food nut, and a few other random things life throws at me.

Excuses
After being on the Google Hangout with some of the other Sweat Pink moms a couple of weeks ago, it actually gave me a lot to think about. Such as, one Mom gets up at 4:30 just to fit her run/workout in because that's the only time that works for her and her family. Interesting. My first thought was, that's insane! But after some thinking, maybe it's not so crazy. Honestly, I wake up tired no matter how much sleep I get. At night, even fitting in the hour for the Hangout was hard. I was tired, hungry, and just wanted to curl up with my Kindle to read, and go to sleep.
But when I'm working out and eating right, I have a ton more energy and I know this! I just suck at putting it into practice when I get overwhelmed. The next few weeks I'm going to meal plan, and get a new planner and write in stuff I have to do. And eating right and working out in whatever form I can will be on there!
So what are my excuses? I started a full time job (~2 months ago). I'm adjusting to living with my boyfriend (again, 2 months ago). We got a dog (1 month ago). My wrist hurts like crazy. Gyms are expensive (my company will reimburse some of the cost). Just a lot going through my mind. So I've started looking at Groupons and into gyms and places that I pass on my way to work. Excuses excuses.
These are things that go through my head daily.

The images below I need to print out and put it around my desk/apartment and remind myself to get up!
