No Weigh-In, but I popped pop corn!

Morning fitness bloggers!

As promised to myself, I’ve refrained from getting on that wretched scale, hence there will be no weigh-in this week. It’s a bit liberating, but I still get tempted when I see it sitting there, beckoning me to come hither. But I’ve refused thus far. Kudos to me 🙂

Yesterday went well in terms of eating and exercise. I got in 30 minutes of intervals on the bike (my thighs were burning after this) and I managed to eat properly. Oats for breakfast, my PB on whole grain for meal 2, chicken/broccoli/Bulgar for meal 3, followed by bananas and peanuts at meal 4.

Meal 5 was the ultimate popcorn experiment which turned out pretty good. All you do is put 3 tablespoons of popcorn kernels in a brown paper bag, fold it over twice, and microwave for about 2-2.5 minutes. I attempted to season it after with a little garlic powder and salt, but it didn’t stick, so I pretty much wound up eating them plain, which wasn’t so bad. I think I will continue to experiment with this because popcorn is my go-to in the evenings when I need to eat something, but am not starving…just “peckish” as the hubby says.

Anyway, give it a try, its definitely better for you without all the butter and sodium they put in the manufactured microwaveable popcorn and it tastes pretty good too.

Wishing you all an awesome day, gotta get back on my work grind. Adieu!
