Today was a typically busy Tuesday. Work was bustling, there is tons going on at home, and applying for jobs in Tampa has become like a part time job. I was definitely in comfort food mode by the time I wiggled my feet into my Hello Kitty slippers! Since last week’s cheese-less pasta left something to be [...]

I love Sunday. I rarely make Sunday plans these days and its become a time to rest and get centered for my work week. Yesterday Siobhan asked if I wanted to meet for a quick Sunday breakfast to catch up. Her breakfast joint of choice….Cracker Barrel. Ok, now I love Cracker Barrel. I mean eggs, warm [...]

Today was not the most eventful Saturday but sometimes that is something to be thankful for. I slept in this morning– well “in” for me (8:00) and had a frozen organic wheat and flax waffle with a teaspoon of organic peanut butter (not pictured) before dashing out the door for 90 minutes of yoga. After [...]

Since Monday was a holiday that meant no work for me. It also meant it was time to get out and do my long run for the week. On deck this week was 8 miles. Yes, 8 miles at my current weight is a bit difficult and by a bit I mean very. It’s uncomfortable [...]

Some people are dessert people and some arent. I know tons (ok not tons but definitely respectable amounts) of people who truly do have a “take it or leave it” mentality when it comes to sweets. Oh how I wish I was one of those people. But, this year is all about accepting my own needs [...]

I will let all of you in on a little secret. After the 2010 Wine and Dine 1/2 Marathon I swore running and I were done. We were breaking up and no we did not plan to stay friends. I finished that race in pure misery. As excited as I was to get my medal [...]

My first yoga class of 2012 and what can I say? First, I hate myself just a little for taking a 3 week break from Bikram. I know better than that. Bikram yoga is really amazing but its also really tricky in a way. When you go regularly your body craves it. That feeling of [...]

Im different. I am not the typical “healthy living blogger”. I can admit freely now that I am not a healthy weight (yet) nor have I ever put tofu in my mouth that I am aware of. I cant fathom running a full marathon, training for a triathlon, or finding time to grow my own veggies (although [...]
