A brief recap – [photos to come later] Breakfast: Kashi chewy granola bar Lunch: 1 salad with a 1/8 cup chicken breast tossed in for extra protein; 1…… Continue reading I survived Monday…

The Rest of Sunday…

One question – where the heck did the weekend go? How is it actually Sunday evening? Ugh. So sad. The weekends never seem long enough to me. Anyhow. After my run this morning, I enjoyed some down time. The smoothie was really satisfying. I watched some Meet The Press. I did some computer work. I…… Continue reading The Rest of Sunday…

Who Said 1/2 Marathon Training Was Easy?

Well, not me. I was reading an article on half marathon training the other day. The author seemed to think that some people think that training for a half marathon is easy. (I am not one of those people, in case you were wondering.) I paid particular attention to one line in the article and…… Continue reading Who Said 1/2 Marathon Training Was Easy?

The Rest of Friday

I survived the rest of Friday. It was a calmer day than Thursday had been, thankfully. Breakfast got me through until lunch without a problem – and that is always a great thing in my book. Lunch on Friday was pesto, whole wheat pasta and chicken sausage left overs. My lunch was definitely coveted a…… Continue reading The Rest of Friday

Today is really Thursday…

So, I woke up this morning telling myself that today is really Thursday. Thank goodness I remembered. I had an important day at work. I had to put on a dress and some fancy shoes instead of my normal tee-shirt and jeans uniform for work.  I am not going to lie. It was really fun…… Continue reading Today is really Thursday…

Bring a Treat to Work Day

Apparently today was bring a treat to work day at the office. So even though I was annoyed by how much time I spent in the kitchen on Sunday preparing all of my healthy food and packing lunch and breakfast and making dinner for the week, when I got to work I was so happy…… Continue reading Bring a Treat to Work Day

Training & Food

The first unofficial week of half marathon training was a success. Here is a brief recap: Tuesday: over one hour of cardio, 30 minutes of strength training and a couple of wall sits (I’m hoping to avoid runner’s knee this time around and wall sits are supposed to help) Wednesday: half an hour of cardio…… Continue reading Training & Food

Cafe Nuovo

Last night I got together with my friend Mary Alice. We decided to take advantage of the second week of Restaurant Week in Providence and hit up a well known establishment, Cafe Nuovo. I had never been, but my family and friends are always raving about it so I was eager to go. Mary Alice…… Continue reading Cafe Nuovo

Weekend

So far this weekend has been so much better than I thought it would be! I had plenty to keep me busy, and I did not mind being on my own. I concentrated on working out, eating good food, and cleaning the house! What a combination. 🙂 Thursday and Friday I went to the gym…… Continue reading Weekend

H.O.T.

Hi there bloggies. Well, I survived the day! I did feel a bit more rested today. I was planning on taking the super early train this morning which leaves at 6:16 AM. But somehow I was ready to leave the house by 5:50 this morning (what!?). So, I decided since I was ready to leave,…… Continue reading H.O.T.
