Banana Nut Oats + Friday = :)

Happy TGIF… Thank goodness it’s finally here!

I woke up earlier than my alarm today, I was going to let myself sleep in a little later since I knew I’d be at work a little later today due to a lunch meeting, but I guess my body didn’t want to take the extra sleep… Either way, I woke up wide awake this morning but now all of a sudden, I feel tired, go figure!

I started off the morning with my favorite kind of oatmeal combo… oats w/ a sliced up banana (mixed 3/4 in and let 1/4 sit on top), flax, cinnamon, & about 2 tbsp of sunflower seeds (and one or two other nuts may have made their way in – i scooped the sunflower seeds from a trail mix)… It was delicious, warm, comforting, and definitely a perfect start to Friday! Since I had some extra time this morning, I was actually able to post my breakfast pic (I also posted yesterday’s pumpkin oats too)…

I have a lot of little “errands” to get done today, but all in all, it should be a fun, productive day… I have a busy morning and then have to head over to Wegman’s around 10:30 to pick up lunch for my meeting today… I love when you can plan the food that is ordered for lunch meetings because I can make sure there are healthy options… I ordered a few pizzas (plain, veggie, and pepperoni) and a big assorted wheat wrap tray… I made sure they had a significant amount of veggie wraps and I’m so excited to have one… since I won’t be able to take pics of my lunch, here is the picture from Wegman’s website for a visual   Four of these lil guys only have 270 calories ~ amazing, huh?  I sure hope they’re yummy…

My meeting is scheduled to run until about 1, so then I am rushing home and heading into the city w/ Bill (he has off today, since it’s Good Friday) for a few hours to get some wedding stuff done… Afterwards we are going to head to the gym for a hard workout of cardio & upper body weights and then probably grab dinner somewhere… My next post probably won’t be until later tonight, so I hope you all have a fantastic & fun-filled Friday!!!
