3 chocolate no-bake cookies Okay - just being real here.... my daughter asked if we could make some chocolate no-bake cookies. I felt super strong and said I would do it. I did great until they were cooling on the counter in front of me while I was on the computer. I should have left the room but instead I reasoned that I have been working out so hard that I could enjoy just one. Well, then I felt bad so I had another - and then I felt bad about that one so I had another.... 3 cookies total - bad, bad girl!!! So later that evening I was reading some questions that Heather had answered for her followers on her Fitspiration FB site. I saw her comment that ABS were made in the kitchen and that struck me that my abs are a big area that I really need to work on so I really need to keep it clean in the kitchen. Ok... end of story, and I'm back on track!!!Tuesday, March 5thB: My Morning Shake (see Monday)
