The News
FINALLY, I have some exciting news to share here on Lose it Lyss…I got a job!
After nearly 4 months of being unemployed, ya girl is finally re-entering the working world, whoohoo!! While everything is going super great so far (I’ll spare you the details for now), my work days feel dramatically longer than my previous position due to a long commute. It now takes me anywhere between 1.5–2hrs to get to and from work (roundtrip is 3 hours), so I’ve definitely been experiencing trouble when it comes to preparing healthy meals.
That’s where these overnight oats come in. Meal prepping oats have become somewhat of a saving grace for me, and while my last recipe has been a hit in the “Lose It” household, it’s time to break up the monotony.
Therefore, in honor of the new changes in my professional life, and the much needed ones on my breakfast menu, I bring you this hefty jar of chocolate peanut butter banana overnight oats!

Lyss
