Post Workout Bars

22 Mar

Remember my triggers post?  I can admit if I made the below bars I would eat all 6 of them.  I do have willpower for many things but I really love no bake cookies. 

protein-bars

Prep Time: 2 minutes, Servings: 6 bars

■Non-stick cooking spray

■1 1/2 cup dry oats

■2 scoops chocolate whey protein

■2 Tbsp. flaxseeds

 ■1 cup nonfat dry powdered milk

About April

You name it, i've tried it. I finally found what I needed though. www.dreambodies.net. I started losing weight and seeing things i've never seen. I then started competing and I really do love it! Now i'm searching for a balance. I don't want the 10-15 lb in a day weight gain. I'm trying to become a "healthy" eater and not refraining from enjoying myself.
