Latonga's Latte

Every morning I start my day off with a protein shake. It took me a minute to determine that  I needed something reasonable but yet flavorful. The recipe for my shake is:
  8-10 oz of skim milk
 A table spoon of decaf coffee
Two scoops of Kroger Whey and Soy protein mix ( 11.99 @ Kroger~ very reasonable)
A splash of coffee mate (caramel, hazelnut, or vanilla)
Put everything in a blender bottle and shake
 It taste like a latte from Starbucks..without the price and calories...ENJOY!!!

However, I will continue to put one foot in the front of the other one and continue to move forward‼️

Lately my favorite veggie has been zucchini squash and yellow squash. I take  a little bit of olive oil,a little bit of salt and a little bit of pepper and sauté it... Yummy! I take the squash,and I put it in half cup containers. Therefore, I have my Veggies prepped for the week. Do you meal prep? It save me a lot of time, and also assist me in making healthy choices.

Weight gain

This week I have been off track, eating out due to vacation, not limiting portion sizes, not drinking all of my decaffeinated tea, coffee, and water. So this morning, I got up drank 8 ounces of water, took my vitamins, and headed to the gym. I am going to call this: # operation HELL no move that scale!!!! I have gained 5 pounds! I am sure is water and sodium retention! However, I am back on track. I will: drink at least 64 oz of water, up my protein intake, get in all my vitamins, and measure my portions. I will not eat out all week! #operationHELLnomove that scale is in full effect.
