April 4, 2011, Weights and yoga and seven grain blueberry pancakes!!!

Finished last week with a bike ride on Saturday and Sunday and yoga on Sunday.  Yard work on Friday and Saturday felt great.  Heavy winds changed the work-out plan for today.  Weights at 6:30 this morning and substituting yoga for the 5 mile walk today. After two weeks on taxes, (UGH!) I hope to finish up today and send to Iowa for the final touch.  My trainer reminded me to get 130-135 grams of protein every day.  That could mean 5 meals of 25 grams plus.  I know I need to have the protein within 15 minutes of walking in the door after my work-out.  Today I had protein shake with two scoops of chocolate Melaleuca protein flex powder with 8 ounces of coconut milk and one LARGE strawberry.  I would have added peanut butter (yum) but we were out.  At 9:30 I will have one scrambled egg with large Table spoon of cottage cheese and one multi-grain, blueberry pancake.  I crave my 7 grain organic pancakes.  I get the mix from Paul's Grains farm, a menonite like farm that reflects a "true organic" philosophy.  This farm is about 20 miles North of Newton, Iowa, where I lived for 30 years.  I have been getting this mix for the last 25-30 years and love the grainy texture.  When I add the blueberries it goes over the top for me!!!!!!!!!!
