Belize plans & Yogurt x2
I had two great yogurt experiences today. The first one was when I finally tried the new Pineapple flavored Chobani that everyone has been raving about. I ate it without cereal or toppings to truly experience it - Loved it :) I had some trail mix on the side. A bit later I was going to eat this ... Read More about Belize plans & Yogurt x2
Light Bulb & Lunch
I had a complete "Light Bulb Moment" the other night as I was talking to my BFF. She is trying to lose weight and was asking me for advice. I asked her,"What are the top 2 or 3 habits that are keeping you overweight?" I explained to her that the things that are keeping me from reaching my goal ... Read More about Light Bulb & Lunch
Long Run Friday
My long runs are usually on Saturdays, but since we have to leave for the airport at 5am tomorrow I needed to get it in today. I didn't have time for the full 13 miles I would have done on Saturday, but I did 10 miles this morning! This is the longest run I've ever done on a weekday. I was very ...

Things I want to post, but can't…
Sometimes time there are things I want to post about but can't because certain people read this blog (family, co-workers) and I should be respectable. Damn. Today I said something to Ben that I want to post, but can't...Let's just say I went to a salon place to get something done because I'm going ... Read More about Things I want to post, but can't…
Quarter-Life Crisis
My walks home have been giving me a lot of time to think. I love it because I've been having a Quarter Life Crisis for a long time now. I'm done with college, I'm working, but I don't know what's going to make me completely fulfilled. I need a 5 year plan. I want to be proud of myself. My head is ...

Mexican Genes…
Today is a Rest Day so I slept in a bit and did some strength training in my living room :) If I was consistent with this I know I would see results fast since I'm built to last. My breakfast yesterday was so satisfying I decided to make the same thing again :) Today I added some of those Yogi ... Read More about Mexican Genes…
No Cold Condiments
Today I totally ate what I wanted and it made me happy :) My lunch was a big salad bar feast and dinner was simple, but the best! I made a veggie wrap with my new favorite veggie burgers. I put a random carrot on the side for kicks. My condiments of choice for this meal :) I don't keep these in ... Read More about No Cold Condiments
Seven dollar salad
I made the exact same lunch as yesterday for today and just wasn't feeling it. So, I went next door to the Giant market and got a salad from the salad bar. While $7.00 is A LOT cheaper than a WF salad it's still 7 bucks I didn't have to spend. At least I got a BIG one! Look at the salad container ... Read More about Seven dollar salad
Tempo Run
My training program called for a Tempo Run this morning - 1 mile warm up, 4 miles Tempo, 1 mile cool down. The point is to run faster than your marathon pace, but be able to sustain it for 4 miles. My pace fluctuated depending on whether or not the ground was flat where I was, but I think I did ... Read More about Tempo Run
My life sounds interesting…
Today at the doctor's office my life must have sounded interesting, or at least crazy, when I had to explain the following: - Sorry, I am late and sweaty because I walked here since my car is in California. - I don't have any of my medical records, as they are in California, but I swear I got the ...

I need a shot – not that kind
I checked out the CDC website today to find out what vaccines I need before going to Belize (nothing like waiting until the last minute!). I need a few vaccines and anti-malaria prescription. Vaccination or Disease Recommendations or Requirements for Vaccine-Preventable ... Read More about I need a shot – not that kind
Oatmeal Season Already?
I slept in (well, sleeping in for me is 6am) and didn't have time for the Push-ups Challenge exercises - I will do them after work. I made Ben a Green Monster this weekend and he loved it! He made himself another one this morning and left a little for me - I drank it as soon as I got back from my ... Read More about Oatmeal Season Already?
Success! Just Kidding.
I wish I could tell you guys that I was successful at not eating while cooking, but that would be a lie. We all know that RER is not perfect, but at least she doesn't lie. (Yes, I'm talking about myself as RER in the third person, sue me.)Â I need to stick with the plan! Gum while cooking, not eat ... Read More about Success! Just Kidding.
