One...day 13!

To be or not to be....peanut butter that is!  I love peanut butter, and enjoy making sandwiches for my daughters because that means mommy gets a spoonful or 2:) Yummy in my tummy!!!  I don't know if you have seen this product, PB2, but it can save you a lot of unwanted calories all the while you can still have the flavorful enjoyment of peanut butter.  It is in a powder form and you just add water then voila instant peanut butter. I add the powder to my chocolate protein for a delicious change in flavor.  Here's the stat comparison:

Today's minute challenge is lateral raises. This exercise will develop your shouder area.  Start with your arms straight at your side, and lift laterally out to shoulder level.  To make a bit more challenging, balance on one foot for 30 seconds of repetitions then switch legs.  To add extra resistance use dumbbells or hold a can of soup in each hand.
