My question to people who don't eat breakfast:
How could you miss out on such a wonderful dining experience? I love both preparing and eating breakfast foods and find that eating breakfast improves how I feel throughout the day. Not eating breakfast not only slows down your metabolism it actually leads to over eating at night. (ie: loading up on carbs while vegging out!)

Though today my breakfast was pretty wimpy for the workout that was to come....
Kashi's Golden Goodness cereal mixed with granola, shredded coconut, frozen blueberries, and almond milk. This breakfast would be suitable any other day but before a cardio/total body workout... not so much! Another excuse for not kicking behind today would be this humid weather! I felt like I was dying while lifting five pound weights, what's going on man? Oh well it's not the end of the world and there's always Thursday. ;)

Speaking of working out... My workout schedule has been a little unorganized these past few weeks. I suppose it's a sign that I need to revamp my schedule.

My usual weekly routine:
Monday: I like to ease into my weekly routine by doing a half an hour of weights. (I usually follow a workout on exercise TV)
Tuesday: I go to a yoga class at the YMCA with Aria. It's vinyasa class that focuses on strengthening and toning.
Wednesday: I take the day off or I do an hour of light yoga. Nothing too intense, just simply to stretch rejuvenate my muscles.
Thrusday: Another opportunity to do weights!
Friday: Zumba @ the gym with Aria!
Saturday: If I get the chance, I like to do a quickie yoga practice.
Sunday: REST.

That was ongoing for about two months but now it's time to change things up. Change is good, right? I am going to keep Monday for weights, Tuesday & Friday @ the gym. I'll definitely take up more outdoor activities since summer is practically here! ( Swimming! Learn how to surfing? Hiking! and my personal favorite: trips to the city with lots of walking and window shopping :D )

I'll be back, I gotta run a few errands.
