You know it is really cold out in the morning when I start making stove top oats again. It was almost frigid when I woke up this morning at 7:30. I threw on a robe, went downstairs, poured some coffee and watched Morning Joe for a few minutes. Then I got up and went into…… Continue reading Return of Stove Top Oats
One of AFM’s good friends writes a blog. A few days ago he started writing out what he eats every day. I love the format because it is so simple. So, here you go: 11AM banana 12:30 PM Peanut butter & jam sandwich on whole grain bread; 1 small apple 4:15PM Kashi chewy granola bar…… Continue reading More soup…
This week is so busy with work stuff, but the nice thing about being busy with work is that the week goes by pretty quickly. In some ways it does not feel like Tuesday night, but at the same time I am sort of exhausted. Anyhow, back to the rest of the day… After lunch…… Continue reading Grilled Cheese
Happy Tuesday morning everyone. I hope that your week got off to a great start with a productive Monday. My Monday was pretty great, as far as Mondays go. (Not my favorite day of the week.) It took me a long time to get to work because I left the house at 6:30 instead of…… Continue reading Monday’s Recap
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

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
On Saturday night AFM and I had a wonderful dinner out at Cook & Brown. I had been really wanting to try Cook & Brown for months, and finally I had someone to go with who I know would appreciate the experience, too. Cook & Brown is a small restaurant (Public House, actually) on Hope…… Continue reading Dinner out…
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
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
So, in case you were wondering I got my run done yesterday. I did 5 1/3 miles and it was pretty hard. I really need to learn that getting a longish run over with first thing in the morning is really the best thing to do. By the time I left the house at 12:30…… Continue reading I got it done…
