How’s everyone doing with their Go The Distance workouts this week?
If you haven’t entered the challenge you, you can still do so AT ANY TIME. This week Robyn is hosting the Go The Distance giveaway. All you have to do is make a goal for one workout and get it in over the weekend to enter week 1. OR if you must, you can start on Monday with week 2.
Because I’ve had to take this week off from working out I’ll be starting the challenge on Monday. My apologies that I haven’t been sweating it out with y’all. In order to make it up to you I have TWO SUPER DUPER AMAZING PRIZE PACKAGES for you to enter to win next week. Omg they’re so good, they’re sooooooooo gooooooood 
. (Psssst think gummies and chips, yeah seriously!)
I’ve been getting a little bit better every day and am coughing less and less. Wooohoooo! Tonight I actually have plans to go out. Anyone see Les Miserables yet? I’m thinking it’s going to be good.
To ensure that I could make it to a late night movie I started the day with a good complete breakfast: a combo of pumpkin granola and ezekial granola with almond milk, and a smoothie with whey protein, frozen peaches, and a banana.
I gotta admit, I’m not great at getting a complete breakfast in. Rarely do I get protein, fruit, carbs, and fat in the same meal when it’s the AM. Does anyone else struggle with the same thing? Is it because I’m usually rushing in the morning? I don’t really like to spend a lot of time on breakfast.
Let’s share some good complete breakfast ideas!
Hmmm. Love Breakfast! I really like to have extra time in the morning, so I always have room for breakfast. Favourites:
1. Green Smoothie (banana, peanut butter, milk & spinach these days)
2. Peanut butter on toast w banana or apple
3. 1 egg + egg white scrambled eggs + toast.
Always with some coffee!
On busy days, I always prepare my breakfast the night before and keep it in a box in the fridge. My go-to breakfast is sandwiches with various toppings, like hummus and ajvar (red bell pepper dip), veggie spread and tofurky slices, or the classic pb and strawberry jam.
Your smoothie looks great, too!
Lately I’ve been enjoying a bowl of fruit with whatever else I eat. Today my son made gluten free scones with dried cranberries so I had that and a glass of almond milk.
I like making an egg and cheese sandwich on a whole wheat english muffin with a banana or a glass of orange juice. Greek yogurt with fruit and toast and coffee is also really good!
You are gonna rock this week’s challenge! Love that breakfast!

You’re definitely on the right track with the smoothie. I’m convinced they’re the secret to healthy, balanced breakfasts for people on the move and my Vitamix blender was probably the best investment I’ve made in the last 3 years.
My morning go-to:
1 cup frozen berry blend (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
1 cup ice
1 cup dry oats
1 scoop whey protein
1/2 cup almond/soy milk
3/4 cup water
Either a little natural pb to taste (about a tbsp should do) or flax oil for a little fat
I’m a fairly active 195lb young guy so this may be a little more calories than the average person needs but it’s tasty, 10 mins to make, 5 to clean and I can drink it on my way to work at 6:30am = an extra snooze!
thanks for sharing!
