I did good and bad last night for dinner. We went to Lucille's for dinner last night. We were kinda celebrating Ben moving into a new place :) and he had never been to Lucille's before. I knew he would love it since he's a big meat eater and we're always going to places I want to go so I thought I'd ... Read More about Intuitive Overeating

Wait, I don't really believe that , but I do believe: "Slow and steady gets you to the finish line" I'm down half a pound this Friday (from last week). This is especially surprising after last weekend's eating, ... Read More about Slow and steady wins the race

Don't want to eat random parts of a cow?
Then, soy chorizo is for you! Lunch was great- Soy chorize with egg white on a flatout wrap. If you guys like regular chorizo, you have to try this. It's so good! With cherries and cucs on the side. Love it. Chorizo is so tasty! And I'm so glad there's a vegetarian alternative to the original. ... Read More about Don't want to eat random parts of a cow?
Raw Chocolate Oat Cookies
I actually got this recipe from a blogger about a year ago. She has since retired from blogging :( so I can't give her a shout out. Actually, I also found it while googling, so I think it's pretty well known already! These "cookies" are amazing - and amazingly easy!!! You only need 4 ingredients. ...

Raw Wed. Continues
I haven't had the easiest time with the Raw Wednesday Challenge. I think eating raw was meant to stop when humans figured out how to make fire 10,000 years ago. Sorry, it's true. Ha. But I do have an amazing "No Bake" Recipe for you in the next post! W/O: 5 miles. I felt a little tired today. ... Read More about Raw Wed. Continues
Fries for dessert
Ben showed up on my doorstep last night by surprise to take me out for dessert. But, it turns out he hadn't even eaten dinner yet (it was 9pm) so we went to a local hamburger place to get him some grub. I didn't order anything, but did eat some of his fries...then felt super full. Boo. But, it is ... Read More about Fries for dessert

Bachelorette Party
I have been MIA because I was in Las Vegas for my Bachelorette Party!!! Such a party would be more ecstatic with the aid of services like bar rentals for events. Now, I try to keep sacred the Vegas code: "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas" So, I won't say too much, except I had the ... Read More about Bachelorette Party

My excitement for this weekend is totally building!

Simple, but perfect
I think my favorite dinner is salmon, a sweet potato and salad (or brussel sprouts!). Since I'm trying to figure out what I love I thought I'd test this theory- salmon it was! I grilled it on the George Foreman with teryaki sauce, threw the sweet potato in the microwave and threw together a salad. ... Read More about Simple, but perfect
Flowers and stress
My mom bought star gazers for the centerpieces at my Bridal Shower this weekend. We gave most of them away, but kept one. They took a couple of days, but now most of them are open and beautiful. The flowers make me happy and distract me from all the stress going on in my life which is why I am ... Read More about Flowers and stress
One step at a time
I think I need to slow down and take things one step at a time. I ended up getting hungry around 10pm last night and eating a lot of random things...trail mix, my brother's leftover burrito, something else I can't remember. I felt like crap physically and emotionally about it and this morning I ... Read More about One step at a time
