You know, I love boot camp classes, strength training, and even jogging a bit, but my favorite exercise is definitely walking outside…I love it. After our walk, we grabbed a quick dinner at Panera Bread – [...]

Today’s meals were all about convenience. I have several go-to convenience meals that I reach for on busy, or lazy, days. I think I’m still having a hard time catching up from my lost hour. Aren’t we all? Breakfast was Starbucks oatmeal topped with a bit of brown sugar, nuts, and raw almond butter + coffee [...]

I got such a great night’s sleep last night. I felt so exhausted from our busy week that I got into bed at 8:30…really unusual for me. But I ended up sleeping from 10:00 until almost 8:00 this morning. It was awesome. Anthony and I had to attend a meeting at church this morning, Safe [...]

Sunday started with one of my favorite breakfasts ever. Kath’s Whipped Banana Oats topped with dark chocolate chips, blackberries, and 2 kinds of almond butter. Deelish. I follow Kath’s recipe exactly, except I don’t add the chia seeds. It turns out perfectly every time. After church, we went to lunch at the Smoky Mountain Brewery. [...]

Today was all about work, nibble, work, nibble, work, nibble…… First, a blueberry banana smoothie. More work… Then yogurt. More work…. Then leftover 3-Bean Chicken Chili + cornbread. After work, Anthony and I tackled a quick P90X Cardio X workout…. Then Panera Bread Greek salad + tomato and mozzarella panini for dinner. Yum. I love [...]

I am in “Full Speed Ahead” mode right now. I started my morning with a quick bowl of Fiber One + 1% milk + coffee… Then, headed to the hospital to teach a pre-surgery gastric bypass nutrition class.

Wow- how has the day flown by so quickly? I left home at 8:00 this morning and just now got home at 8:30 PM. I am ready for some downtime. Today is hopefully an example of how you can still manage to eat fairly healthy, even with no planning. If you’re stuck eating convenience foods, [...]

I am not cut out for 12-hour days…maybe no one is. I’m so happy to be home….it was a good day, though, even though it was long. After boot camp clas this afternoon, I had a quick snack… Tonight we had a great guest speaker at the wellness center as a kick-off to the New Year. [...]
