As many of you know, I have struggled with losing those “last ten pounds” for quite a while! I don’t eat much, between 1400-2000 calories per day, and I have exercised religiously, daily, for more than 10 years!! Finally, a few weeks ago, during a life insurance blood draw, the results came back that my …

Must be my thyroid
I’m super frustrated! I have been eating well and I run about 20 or more miles per week, and have gained 6 lbs in the last month! Not only that, my cholesterol, which just a month ago was 150, is suddenly 250! Other symptoms associated with thyroid I’ve read and I am experiencing is Carpal …
Jillian Radio
I have been LOVING this radio show put on by Jillian Michaels. She is so likeable on radio. She has great information, she knows what she’s talking about. And I feel like we are weight loss partners. She seems to struggle in the same areas I do.. cravings, problems areas, etc. Anyway, I’ve been downloading …
Finally Hot day
Hooray for 90 degrees! Its about time. Between breakfast and lunch, I felt the need for an Amazing Grass smoothie! It was delicious as always. I tried the berry flavored greens and it was perfect with my strawberry/ banana / soy milk. Then around noon, I was cleaning and doing things here and there. Didn’t …
Staying warm with oatmeal
I’m sore from yesterday’s lunges! Hooray! This morning I ran and walked for 1 hour, and came home and found this little 10 minute pilates core workout on itunes. I only got through about 3 minutes of it. If you know any 10 minute video yoga podcasts, let me know. Then, cold as always after …
A little bit of protein
I haven’t really had much meat, dairy, or eggs for quite a while, so I guess you could say I got a craving. I boiled up some eggs, because I love a good hard boiled egg. I had to be at work at 1:30 today, which actually turned out awesome! Knowing I only had a …
And this is my flog
A food log of a healthy mom! Anyway, this morning I started at the gym. I did 50 minutes of cardio and then strength training. Tons of lunges, I hope I feel that tomorrow! I’ve got a lot on my to do list this morning, so I mixed up an Amazing Grass Shake. Some berry/ …
I’m a flogger ( food blogger )
My awesome sister came up with that one. To finish off yesterday’s meals is easy. It wasn’t that I was too busy to eat, but we went to a magic show, and then my sister hung out at my house for a few hours… so all I got around to eating was my yummy, delicious …
I ate the wheat
This morning I was at the gym by 5:30. I keep repeating in my head Julie MOrgensterns book title, “Never Check Email in the morning”. I also read a few reviews of her book over the weekend that said not checking email the first hour of the day had greatly improved their productivity! What a …
White chili
I have to say, this dinner was really good! White Chicken Chili and homemade rolls. Although I didn’t really need to make the rolls! The kids had theirs with some tortilla chips. Either way worked well. And then, I just couldn’t resist! Look what Nate made for Wade for Father’s day. Its a thermometer of …
