Happy Monday! I typed “Friday” first….wow, was that a slip or what? I know where my brain is already. Monday’s are usually crazy in my world…busy days in the world of weight management. I started the day with 2 slices of multi-grain toast with crunchy flax almond butter + banana + an orange for a [...]

A Day about Nothing
March 14th, 2010 · 5 Comments · Breakfast, Dinner, Recipe link
Today is a day all about nothing….sort of like Seinfeld. Anthony and I skipped church today because we desperately needed a day to sleep in. It was so nice to wake up naturally around 9 (new time). After a little more lounging, I made us a yummy breakfast: veggie scramble with 15-grain toast topped with [...]
Busy Day, Bottomless Pit

First, Thanks for your great comments on my Biggest Loser post. I loved reading your thoughts. How has your Wednesday been? Mine has been non-stop and I’ve been a bottomless pit. Do you ever have days like that, when you’re hungry all day? I usually just go with it and listen to my body. I started [...]
Tuesday Meeting Day

Quick breakfast this morning at my desk: white chocolate wonderful peanut butter on whole-grain bread + strawberries + coffee. I think I’m probably starting to sound like a broken record, but this is such a busy time of year at work. My department juggles diabetes education, weight loss surgery services, and our non-surgical weight management [...]

Quick Lunch Break
January 25th, 2010 · 6 Comments · Breakfast, Lunch
Happy Monday! Today is a non-stop day, so I fueled up with Fiber One caramel cereal + coffee. Quick snack at my desk: nuts + raisins. I’m not usually a fan of 100-calorie packs- but I love these little guys…a perfect serving size. Quick lunch break at home…leftover club salad from yesterday. Now it is [...]
Lunch ideas?

Today started as a manic Tuesday…I had an 8 am appointment at the wellness center, which meant I really needed to leave home by 7:15 at the latest. I am so not good with morning appointments, especially on days right after I’m at work late. But, I made it- with no breakfast though. After my [...]

I loved Perfect Oatmeal so much yesterday that I had it for breakfast again this morning. I am a sucker for something quick, easy, and delicious. I also think I’m addicted to Starbucks too. I love how the toppings are clearly labeled: nuts:100 calories, dried fruit: 100 calories, brown sugar: 50 calories. I used all [...]

Breakfast in the car… I had a busy morning at the hospital with back-to-back nutrition consults. Then, home for a quick “Tasting Plate” lunch: cottage cheese, sliced tomato, crackers, sharp white cheddar, and 3 dried plums. Yum. Now, it is back to work for: boot camp Manager on Duty shift at the wellness center guest [...]
Oats in a Jar in the Car
January 7th, 2010 · 6 Comments · Breakfast, Dessert, Lunch
I made one of my favorite breakfasts this morning: oats in a jar. I love whipped banana oats, topped with dark chocolate chips and blueberries. I was running late, as usual, and OIAJ was a perfect travel food! Today was non-stop. My co-worker, Heather, and I did a lunchtime orientation for the class of dietetic interns [...]

Resolutions? or Goals?
December 29th, 2009 · 2 Comments · Breakfast, Lunch
I have had such a hard time crawling out of bed the last 2 mornings…I don’t know why? Maybe because it is so cold outside and my bed is so warm and cozy…I don’t know, but I’ve definitely been moving in slow-motion the last two mornings. I started today with a bowl of Special K [...]
