Power Balls

Thanks to an AIP/Paleo Approach Facebook group I am in I saw a guy post about these and how much he enjoyed them. I checked the nutritional content and they are great for me!
(Trying to follow a pre-diabetic diet alongside Paleo to lower my glucose levels per the DR)

I thought I would give the variety pack a try just so I could see which ones I may like best. You get 8 powerballs and the cost plus shipping was around $21. I wouldn't normally spend that much money on something like this but if it means keeping these glucose levels in check I will just have to eat them as treats!

So far I have had the strawberry ones & chocolate ones. The strawberry ones are great in the mornings for breakfast! They have this great hint of coconut that is just enough sweet for me.

The chocolate ones, for me, are a great after dinner sweet tooth kind of satisfier. I can totally see how you could seriously eat one a day and before you know it your out. I wish they had an autoship option because that would just be awesome.

Monday Miles & end of hitch week

 I had every intention of running Sunday morning but I have never been so sore in my life from running as I was when I woke up. My lower back and my calves were not having it. So I decided to try my hand at banana pancakes for breakfast. And I will say that I will never make pancakes from Bisquick again. Lord knows the crap they put in it and this was super easy!

I used 1 banana, 1 egg, splash of vanilla, two dashes of cinnamon, and I added a 1/4 C of almond flour. It made 4 pancakes! When we finally have kids this will be such a healthier alternative to the store bought mixes. 

Sunday afternoon was spent doing laundry and lounging around with the pups. Dinner was at the inlaws so it was nice to not have to cook and mess up my kitchen. 

This morning was a 5K on the treadmill to get back into. It felt good to work my legs out and have a good sweat session. 

The best part was breakfast so far! If you haven't tried the Paleo Angel Power Balls, you need to! 

And in 48 hours I get to see this sweet face after two weeks on hitch. 

I am looking forward to being able to spend the weekend together at home!
