Although I eat the same dinners as my family, often I will eat something different for breakfast and lunch. Breakfast for me is ALWAYS oatmeal or a smoothie. Lunch is usually a sandwich, fruit, or hopefully a salad if I’m at home. Lately though, it has been too cold in the morning for me to …

My weight is still dropping!  My lowest point was 122, although, I’m at 123 today.  It’s such a relief.   But here is a quick update.  Meals have been delicious, filling, yet healthy! I went on a 2 hour hike in the mountains last week that was fabulous!

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 …

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 …

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 …

There was a lot of things I wanted to prepare in the kitchen this morning.  Knowing myself however, I decided to do it all before breakfast.  Once I eat breakfast and I’m still in the kitchen, I will keep snacking. And I did it! Despite making all this. apple chips white chicken chili homemade bread rolls …
