Starbucks Komodo Dragon Blend Coffee
Good Sunday Morning, peeps 
I like to start each and every single day out with FRESH HOT COFFEE, so why not start this post that way? This morning I woke up late (8:45) and since I’m leaving at 11am, I didn’t have time to run. BUUUT, it will be better to run this evening when it’s cooler anyway. So here’s what I had for breakfast, including the coffee above:
Some nice Greek yogurt (these are the only two I’ve tried… anyone have any other suggestions?) with a small peach cut up in it, like so:

Before I move on, do you know why Greek yogurt is better for you than regular yogurt? I didn’t know for sure, so this morning I did a side by side comparison of my Lucerne Light Vanilla Yogurt & my Voskos Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt and here’s what I found out (both are an 8oz serving size, by the way):
- Lucerne Light Vanilla Yogurt has 110 calories & the Voskos Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt has 140 calories (wait, there’s good news to offset that! Keep reading!)
- Lucerne Light Vanilla Yogurt has 120mg of Sodium while Voskos Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt has just 90mg.
- Lucerne Light Vanilla Yogurt has 19 carbs and Voskos Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt has only 9 carbs.
- Lucerne Light Vanilla Yogurt has 12 grams of sugar and Voskos Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt has only 8 grams of sugar.
- AND.. the most important of it all… Lucerne Light Vanilla Yogurt has only 7 grams of protein while Voskos Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt has a whopping 24 grams of protein!
So there you have it! Greek Yogurt really offers more bang for your buck when it comes to calories & nutrients. It’s slightly more expensive but way more worth it! Ok, moving on.
I also made an Orowheat Sandwich thin toasted with a 1/2 tablespoon of Reduced Fat Peanut butter on one side and one tablespoon of Smucker’s Sugar Free Strawberry Jam on the other side, like so:

Then I poured my coffee, put it all on the table and began eating:
Delicious Sunday Morning Breakfast
Now I’m off to go get all purty for my day today. In honor of me seeing Tori Spelling today, I thought I’d share with you what Tori’s trainer said she did to lose her baby weight AND keep thin:
Her diet: While losing weight, Tori didn’t count calories but watched what she ate. She said, “Breakfast was yogurt, fruit and nuts. Lunch was homemade soup with a sweet potato or soy milk base. We’d snack on celery and peanut butter, and then I’d make lean protein with vegetables for dinner.” Her maintenance plan involves three well-balanced meals each day with snacks in between, and she’ll indulge on her cheat days.
Her workouts: Tori said, “For me to go to the gym and leave my kids doesn’t make sense.” She walks with her family and takes her family swimming when weather permits. For toning, she does three sets of 12 crunches and sit-ups every day, does squats, and lifts weights.
Tori is proud that she achieved her goal weight on her own and said, “I’m a working mom of two, so to know that I did it all by myself was huge.” Props to her for confidently doing things her own way.
Well whatever she’s really doing, she’s pretty dang thin! Anyway, wish me luck today & Happy Sunday! I’ll be back later this evening with updates
