I've gotten into the habit of helping myself to a "second breakfast" be it good or bad. My husband lovingly (?) calls me Hobbit. And it seems like no matter what I eat-eggs, oatmeal, Kashi, Greek yogurt, berries, whey protein smoothies, waffles, pancakes, muffin...!!!! I'm starving before 9:00.
I just saw this recipe in Fitness Magazine Nov/Dec issue and I can't wait to give it a go and see if my tummy holds off a little bit longer. It sounds delicious, easy, and packed full of all the healthy stuff meant to fill us up and keep us full.
Slice an avocado in half, lengthwise, remove the pit and carve some additional space in the center. Crack an egg into the cavity. Bake at 425 degrees for about 10 minutes or until set. Enjoy!
It just sounds so good! Give it a try and holler at me if you get creative with spices or additions.

Fit Tip

I watched this Share Care video today (you know how much I love Dr. Oz!) and had so much fun watching I hopped up and danced along. Yep, breathing heavy by the time it was finished and laughing it all off. So fun I really had to share.
And of course, all the fun...just for grins...if you try out the dance with Stepp Stewart and think its as much of a hoot as I do, I'll throw in 30 minutes of focused arm training for anyone who replies/sends me a photo, or better yet, a video of you working off your echo arms.
Don't live in Houston? I'll send email exercises you can try in the safety of your own living room (or at the gym/park/playground...)

Fit Tip
I'd like to blame the fall weather, but since it's only been cool two days here in Houston, that can't be it. My appetite is crazy lately! I could just about eat the whole house and the gardens.
This week, I'm going to try to slow my roll while I nosh. I'm going to place my fork down while chewing; reflect on the experience of eating, the colors, textures, flavors. I might have to use my left hand instead of my right to hold my fork. If all else fails, I'll break out the chopsticks!
I've already stopped serving food at the table since its much too much effort to get up and go into the kitchen for seconds (heaven forbid, thirds!). Smaller plates/bowls/utensils? Every little bit helps.

Who's with me?
Take it down a notch before the holidays arrive!
