Just a few nifty tips for ya

Don’t drink 20 ounces of water right before bed if you want to sleep the whole night through.
Also don’t drink 20 ounces of water before you have to drive across town and you’re already running late and stopping somewhere is not an option.
Do have lots of toilet paper on hand if you are going to drink the recommended daily amount of water. (Unless you are better than the rest and already do this- then you’re body / bladder is already adapted)
Do invest in soft cushiony yet strong TP if you’re going for the whole 65+ ounces of H2O. 
Have lots of hand soap ready for all those bathroom breaks.  Preferably the lotion-y kind as your hands will get super dried out.
If you’re going to go to fat burning class, don’t go in your 13-yr old daughter’s sweats, especially if they are 4 sizes too small.  But if you do make sure you have a humongo shirt to cover the top portion of your lower portion.  LOL.   Ahhh sometimes I just amuse myself.
Do have a pony tail holder if you have long hair for fat burning class unless you want hair- wet sweaty hair, in your eyes, up your nose, and flying in your mouth and any given movement.
Do tuck that shirt in unless you WANT to flash everyone when you are doing those hip extensions.
Do work on counting out loud up to 8 and then backwards.  There is no 9 in fat burning class.  And to shout it out will only turn heads.
Don’t laugh when uncoordinated people can’t get it together.  It hurts our feelings.  So what if my arms are up when yours are down and I’m kicking left when you’re kicking right.  We can’t have it together all of the time you know!
Fat burning class will not kill you (though the thought does cross your mind) it will only make you stronger.  Again, LOL - I crack myself up!
Do take a picture of yourself after fat class… its… interesting weird humorous ugly memorable- definitely a moment to remember – completing fat burn class #one! 
I can't believe I'm posting this!

Victory treat?  I think soooo!!  A nice warm ooey gooey brownie!!  Or if your me, you have a nice gritty protein drink that they provocatively say will continue to burn fat for the next 3 hours while I’m home sitting on my rump watching American Idol.   Can’t beat that.

A little thing I like to call Brownie Covered Oreo's (note: this was drafted before started Thin & Health)

Are you intrigued by the title of this blog?  I was when I found it at one of my favorite blog sites - this one here!  (Also happens to be my bossman's wife)  And trust me when I say whenever he brings in her super awesome uber yummo delicious treats, its a party in my tummy!  (Sing it with me... its a party in my tummy! its a party in my tummy! it's a party in my tummy!)  Anyone that watches Noggin will know that song... just FYI.  Or for that matter anyone that eats her super awesome uber yummy delicious foods will also be singing that song.  Favorite of hers is cake balls.  I promise I will future post that one.  Let's just say - Ohhhhh Myyyyy.  Put it on your bucket list to eat one.
Ok, back to brownie covered Oreo's.  If you like brownies you are in for a treat.  If you like Oreo's you are for a treat.  And you can be super creative with these. 
This here is bossman's wife's actual blog about these wonderful creations. 

This is the whole grueling process:  (I'm just kidding- they are super easy!)



Basic Ingredients:  Brownie Mix (or if you're imbitious you can make homemade), eggs, vegetable oil, water, and Oreos!

Mix your batter up.



Give the oreos a nice brownie bath.









Put this in a WELL GREASED cupcake pan.


Pop em' in the oven.


After 10-13 min or so pull them out and run a knife around the edges so there is no sticking.


Now here is where you can be as creative with them as you want!





Or add some chocolate drizzle.



Mix in some nuts and chocolate chips and you have yourself a yummy treat!





If you're a chocolate lover these are right up your alley!  Enjoy.
