We all know the potential costs of being unhealthy; visits to the doctor, obesity, high cholesterol etc so choosing healthy foods seems like a no brainer. However, let me paint a picture for you of my night at the grocery store. A woman who was sporting a cart overflowing with pop tarts, hot dogs, white [...]

A Fruit and Veggie Kind of Day
Posted in Fabulous Food, Uncategorized on Oct 11th, 2010
Do you ever have one of those mornings where your body is literally begging for something healthy? After a weekend of Anniversary celebrations, indulging on this great lunch, (and dessert!!) and not drinking enough water my body was crazing some normalcy today. I don’t really “detox” per se. It makes people cranky and can cause [...]
Dinner ala Green
Posted in Fabulous Food on Sep 21st, 2010
I was reading some tips on how to “sneak” veggies into children’s (and in some cases husband’s) food and I started thinking, why don’t we train ourselves to look at vegetables differently? Instead of sneaking them into food, why not celebrate their wholesome goodness by adding them to already popular dishes? I was not really [...]
My New Addiction
Posted in breakfast, recipe, weight loss on Aug 22nd, 2010
I am sure given the title you are expecting to see shoes, a television show, or maybe even make-up of some sort. Luckily though, this new addiction in my life is healthy one. Ever since that fantastic breakfast at HLS I have been addicted to oatmeal. I can see all of the blogger girls shaking [...]

So going to my Weight Watchers meeting I had already mentally prepared for the train wreck on the scale I was sure was coming. I had been flittering around on my own (off plan) for a month, I had forgotten to eat Saturday, and then had a large meal and cupcakes on Sunday. I was [...]
So Much Talking
Posted in breakfast, Clean Eating, diet, health, lunch, wellness on Jun 29th, 2010
After my kick in the face that was Monday I was slightly apprehensive about what might be in store for me today. It would turn out I had nothing to be afraid of. Today was run of the mill ordinary and that was just fine with me! I was re-reading some old blogs of mine [...]
Blogs, Body Pump, and Ravioli in a Rush
Posted in dinner, Home, Uncategorized on May 14th, 2010
I woke up this morning ridiculously sore from yesterday’s Body Pump class. I will say it was good healthy sore and not you hurt yourself sore so that was a plus. My arms, back, chest, booty, abs and legs were all killing me so I am thinking this Body Pump class might be the best [...]
Table for One
Posted in breakfast, diet, dining out, dinner, fashion, fast food challenge, green monster, health, travel, weight loss on Apr 20th, 2010
I was up bright and early (well not so much bright as it was still dark) for work today. I had to do a lot of driving today but its only something I have to do every quarter so I cannot complain (too much). The weather was beautiful and I listened to U2 for the [...]
Weigh-Ins and Revolutions

First things first- I dreaded my weigh in after the little incident I had yesterday with the happy meal and my lax calorie counting over the weekend. I am usually much more diligent but today I was prepared to pay the price for my mistake. I am somewhat relieved to say my weight stayed the [...]
Grocery Store Wish List
Posted in Uncategorized on Mar 31st, 2010
There comes a time every few weeks when I have to get creative with my meals. Sadly I don’t mean creative in the “hey lets try something new and fabulous” way but rather the “Sara Renee put off going to the grocery store for too long and what can we mix together to make a [...]
