Seventeen: Snack

I am a definite fan of snacks, especially when I work out in the mornings and on a healthy kick. I try to eat smaller meals more often...it's supposed to keep your metabolism up throughout the day but it's also a 'trick' to my mind that I get to eat more! I love to eat...so keeping my mouth full more often seems to work well for me. These are two of my favorite things lately...edamame (yes, kind of random but it's so low fat and high in protein...and  yummy!) and fruit smoothies. Brandon has started making us smoothies at night so that we can grab them quickly out of the fridge in the mornings and it's a perfect mid-morning snack (plus, it helps me get my fruit points for the contest!)
