Hey everyone! Thank you so much for your support and encouragement through the loss of my beloved Lucy. It has been a rough week and a half, but I am surviving and getting through each day, which is more than I expected. I feel a little older and maybe even a little stronger than I [...]

Snow dance

January 28th, 2010 · 8 Comments · Breakfast

I actually took time to make breakfast at home this morning. Whipped banana oats, topped with dark chocolate chips, blueberries, and a spoonful of White Chocolate Wonderful. I think this was my favorite oats combo yet. Seriously, it was like dessert almost. But, it can’t be too bad…oats, dark chocolate, blueberries, peanut butter…all superfoods in [...]

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 [...]

Busy Monday

January 25th, 2010 · 2 Comments · Dinner

Quick afternoon snack after boot camp: I just picked up my first jar of White Chocolate Wonderful at the grocery store yesterday. I can’t believe I hadn’t tried it before. Delicious. I had two big spoonfuls as my post-boot camp, pre-weight loss class snack. Mondays are always super-busy. And, with our new weight loss class, tonight was [...]

Pumpkin-inspired

November 3rd, 2009 · 4 Comments · Breakfast

My day started out pretty well…the alarm went off at 5:10 am and (out of habit) I automatically reached for the snooze button! I rolled over for about 60 seconds and then I jumped out of bed and turned off the alarm…I’ll give that a 9 out of 10 for mostly reaching my goal for [...]
