Eating On Track This Week - Not at the beginning, or the middle, but started Nutrisystem again on Monday!!!

Comments - Started Nutrisystem again on Monday. We decided that we did not do so well on our own (at all) so we went back to what we know works. Also, we need to start exercising again. I planned on walking in the morning before work. Woke up on Wednesday morning to go for a walk and thought I had set my alarm clock wrong, it was dark. Guess I need to go back to the drawing board for exercise options, not walking in the dark!!!

RECIPE...

Peanut Butter and Jelly Overnight Oats...

1/3 cup oats (not instant)
1 tbsp chia seeds
1 tbsp powdered peanut butter
2/3 cup almond milk
couple of drops liquid stevia
couple of frozen strawberries (thawed in the microwave and smashed)

Place the oats in a jar or small bowl, add the chia seeds and powdered peanut butter. Pour the almond milk in the jar and add a couple of drops of liquid stevia (I use the Vanilla Creme flavored Sweet Leaf). Mix in the smashed strawberries. Cover and place in the refrigerator overnight or for at least a couple of hours. Yum!!
