Thinking of my oatmeal was the only thing keeping me going at the gym this morning. I did chest/back on the machines and 30 minutes stairmaster. I meant to run since I’m skipping running club tonight for a free movie with Gina, but I couldn’t bring myself to part with the idea of a half hour on the stairs with Us Weekly. Stats: 1 hour and 3 minutes, 343 calories, 121 average heart rate, 181 max.
Breakfast was another cup of pumpkin pie crockpot oats along with more soymilky vanilla creme tea:
On the oats, I had 1/2 cup yogurt, two crumbled graham sticks, one crumbled earl grey biscotti bite (soo good on oatmeal!), cinnamon, and nutmeg:
And exciting news! Brandi at Bran Appétit! has announced me as the winner of this week’s BSI: Spinach for my Citrus-Berry Spinach and Goat Cheese Ravioli with Balsamic Glaze. I feel so proud! This also means that some amazing chocolate truffles are on their way to me as a prize :-D. Thanks, Brandi! Mara is going to be announcing the new contest somtime today, so make sure to check it out.
The rest of the day’s food is anyone’s guess. I packed a lunch, but you know how that goes! I’ll be back late tonight after the movie with an update.

Yayyy Sarah!!!
I made crockpot oats last night because yours always look so good! (mine were comparatively boring, though: just oats, water, cinnamon, and cardamom)

Also, Sarah, I just realized that I never sent you the link for the Women’s Karate School! Here it is: http://wckc.oceansfree.com/. The class is at 36th & 8th Ave. in Manhattan. Denise, the instructor, is pretty awesome.
