Road Trip

March 6th, 2010 · 5 Comments · Uncategorized

Friday was a long day. Work was really good- really productive. I started with my favorite. I spent most of my day working on financial-type projects for my programs…totally not directly nutrition-related, but I’m learning to like the “business side” of my job more. Lunch was leftover salmon spinach salad + the juiciest red pear. Right after [...]

TGI (almost) F

March 4th, 2010 · 3 Comments · Breakfast, Dinner, Lunch

Do you know that probably 60-70% of my patients and clients don’t eat breakfast on a regular basis? Even though it has been well established that eating breakfast regularly is correlated with having a lower, healthier body weight. I believe so strongly in the importance of eating breakfast….However, I am also not a morning person, so my ongoing challenge [...]

The kale chips experiment

January 12th, 2010 · 9 Comments · Uncategorized

I have been wanting to try making kale chips for awhile, so tonight, after my walk, I decided to give it a try. I followed Kath’s recipe except I used a bit of grated Romano. I was so pleasantly surprised…they were crispy, salty, delish. If you try this recipe, be careful and keep an eye [...]

Relaxing night with a vampire

January 6th, 2010 · 5 Comments · Dessert

I think I’ll call this my Superfood dinner….barbeque roasted salmon, roasted Brussels sprouts and baked sweet potato with a bit of brown sugar and cinnamon. Perfectly delicious and simple to prepare. Have you watched True Blood? We don’t have HBO, but I read the first book in the True Blood series, so we decided to get [...]

Cooking and Singing

December 16th, 2009 · 4 Comments · Dinner

Simple dinner of grilled salmon, roasted broccoli, baked sweet potato, plus a nice glass of Chardonnay. Simple and perfect. The salmon filet and sweet potato were both really large, so I cut each in half and put half in a container – tomorrow’s lunch is ready to go. Is anyone watching Sing-Off? I have been [...]

P90X Cardio X + Biggest Loser

December 2nd, 2009 · 2 Comments · Dinner

On our agenda tonight…P90X Cardio X – it was a great combination of yoga, kickboxing, plyometrics, and core. Even though I already did Sculpt this morning, I’m committed to being Anthony’s partner in P90x, so tonight I did workout #2 for the day and I don’t regret it one bit. Dinner was grilled salmon, sweet [...]

P90X Chest and Back

November 27th, 2009 · 6 Comments · Dinner, Lunch

I haven’t left my house all day and I love it! It is so rare for me to have a full day at home and it has been great. I haven’t been feeling the greatest…I know I’m not getting enough sleep and I think it is catching up with me…I’ve had a bit of a [...]

P90X Yoga X

November 19th, 2009 · 4 Comments · Dinner

Yoga X was great….more fitness-inspired than traditional yoga, but an excellent workout overall. It was an hour and 39 minutes long though…a bit too much for us to dedicate on a busy weeknight, so we fast-forwarded through parts and ended up working for a little over an hour. I’m excited that we’ve stuck with our [...]

Simply Perfect Dinner

October 10th, 2009 · 8 Comments · Dinner

Dinner was simplicity at its finest…grilled salmon, roasted broccoli, and sweet potato…simply perfect. After dinner, Anthony and I went for pedicures….it was sort of a leftover birthday gift from a couple weeks ago- we ended up not having time on my actual birthday. I’m so lucky to have a guy who actually enjoys his pedicures [...]

Captain Ernie’s for dinner

October 2nd, 2009 · 5 Comments · Dinner

We tried a new seafood place for dinner tonight…Captain Ernie’s Fish House…a newer local place owned by a former commercial fisherman from Key Largo. The restaurant promotes the variety of extremely fresh fish that they have flown in several times each week. I had the blackened salmon salad – it was pretty good…not spectacular. Anthony [...]
