Sunday

I slept really well again last night and I woke up at 8:30 this morning. I enjoyed some coffee and a bagel thin with one tablespoon of peanut butter and a tablespoon of jam.  I was still hungry after breakfast. After spending the morning reading and watching MSNBC, I went to the gym. I biked…… Continue reading Sunday

Saturday night shindig

On Saturday night I had a family birthday party to attend. I planned my day accordingly, making sure that I got to the gym for a good work out and eating healthily all day. At the gym I did 46 minutes on the elliptical burning over 400 calories and (according to the machine) covering 4.2…… Continue reading Saturday night shindig

Relaxing

In case you haven’t figured it out yet – weekend mornings are super special to me. During the week days I wake up at 5:30 and do my best to get out of the house by 6AM for my commute to work. I am not a morning person, so I do not enjoy most mornings…… Continue reading Relaxing

Picnic Lunch…

Last night as I was driving home from work, I kept telling myself that I needed to go to the grocery store. I was out of some key items at home: 1. Greek yogurt 2. Bread 3. Produce (peppers, tomatoes, cucumbers, spinach, radish, etc.) 4. Eggs I still have not fully recovered from being under…… Continue reading Picnic Lunch…

Cook & Brown is a small restaurant (Public House, actually) on Hope…… Continue reading Dinner out…

Stress

In case you have not been able to tell, but I have been a bit stressed out for the last couple of weeks. Yesterday was a pretty stressful day – more so than some of the others. I hate stress. I do my best to not let it get to me. I have made progress…… Continue reading Stress

Wednesday’s re-cap

So far this week has been decent. I am back into the workout routine and for the most part (sans the mac and cheese ordered at Monday night’s dinner) I am back to eating well. It is always a good feeling when you can get back to working out AND eating well at the same…… Continue reading Wednesday’s re-cap

Humpty Dumpty

Congratulations on making it to Wednesday – hump day. When the thought of hump day came into my head as I was riding on the train this morning, Humpty Dumpty popped into my head immediately. Perhaps it is because I have not had coffee yet? Perhaps it is because I am riding on a train…… Continue reading Humpty Dumpty

The Struggle with September

Let me be clear. September is one of my favorite months of the year. Second (maybe) only to October. I love autumn. I think it has some of the best weather of the year, and it is simply beautiful. Anyhow. I don’t know about where you live – but where I live, September is just…… Continue reading The Struggle with September
