Hot weather oats
I started the day with a rough 13 or 14 miles. I say 13 or 14 because the last mile was walk/run. I wanted to walk by mile 10 and a runner coming from the opposite direction actually said, "Smile, it's okay to smile." Ha. I smiled and decided I would keep going for another 3 miles. I actually ...

Greens Cafe and run plan
Ben and I walked to Greens Cafe a new vegan restaurant in town. (It's so new there is no website I could link to.) I got an iced tea, because I am a good little bear who is trying to stay away from soder. We started with Crispy Stix - deep fried soy protien sticks with a chipotle sauce. It was a ...

Walk, Eat, Repeat
Friday is a Rest Day for me so I just did some random arm weights and took a short walk. I was trying to get to work early today. I am shooting for another short walk after work too :) As I mentioned last night I made a breakfast cookie for this lovely Friday morning. I heated it up a bit before ...

Soyrizo!!!
I love when vegetarian substitutes taste just as good, if not better than the "real" thing. Soyrizo of those things. I had it with some egg whites, ww tortilla and salad. Dessert was a lot of grapes. Lunch held me over very well and I wasn't that hungry around 3:30p when I made a smoothie and ... Read More about Soyrizo!!!
Fight Fatigue with Food!
As a result of my recent sleep eating kitchen raid I started thinking of ways to prevent it (besides sleeping more!). Instead of turning to food when you are tired you can help prevent fatigue with certain foods. For example, having an iron deficiency often results in fatigue. Red meat is one of ...

Usual oats with a crunch
Is everyone as happy as me that it's Thursday? I am so ready for the weekend!!! I slept in a little bit today and feel so much better than I did yesterday. I think part of the reason I didn't want to run yesterday was I was sooo tired. I am a huge advocate for enough sleep - it makes a big ... Read More about Usual oats with a crunch
Seitan and Pasta
My mom asked me to throw something together for dinner since she had to take Matt to basketball practice and they would be home hungry. She had thawed out ground turkey and I cooked something up and had a few tastes while cooking. My dinner was centered around this: I mixed it up with some ww ... Read More about Seitan and Pasta
Sleep Eating
Mid morning I snacked on blueberries and half of this protein/fiber drink that was on sale the other day. I snacked on a few of those crack chips with hummus while putting together lunch. Grilled cheese and salad were on the menu for lunch. I really wanted soup, but I have a huge container of ... Read More about Sleep Eating
Misty Water Colored Runnings
It was lightly misting this morning during my run - just enough to keep me cool and not get too wet. (I actually didn't want to run at all this morning, but more on that later.) I ended up doing 6.5m and walking .5 back home. Now it's raining hard so I'm glad I got my energy out before I cooped up ... Read More about Misty Water Colored Runnings
An evening at the Theatre!
Rent was great! There where even 2 of the original cast members. I loved it, but I did like the movie more because you got to know the characters a little more and the details really made it better. Oh and,  I totally adore the guy who plays Roger - actor Adam Pascal. Don't tell Ben. The play was ... Read More about An evening at the Theatre!
Play time
I don't mean "play time" like going to the park as a kid I mean - I am going to see RENT tonight!!! I am sooo excited. I saw the movie when it came out a few years ago and loved it. My friend says that it is 100 times better on stage, so I can't wait! So, I have to work through lunch so I can ... Read More about Play time

So many chips, so little time before the wedding
I went to Costco to get dog food and bread on my lunch and walked out with these things. I picked up the bag to take a look at the nutrition information and a man walked up to me and raved about them. So, I thought I would trust the word of my new random stranger friend and get 'em. He was right. ... Read More about So many chips, so little time before the wedding
Jokes for Lent
Sorry, is this sac-religious? I don't know, but I had to bring a little humor to my withdrawal from sweets. It's not easy to keep it together people! And the jokes are only going to get more lame the longer I stay away from frozen yogurt. ... Read More about Jokes for Lent
