True Love… 
But first my dinner…
I had a meeting with my new friend (Hi Karynsue!) we are trying to start a Girls on the Run Chapter in Orange County and apparently it’s a ton of work! We had a lot to chat about. Karynsue is vegan and started with an artichoke. They scare me, so I didn’t have any…
But, I do like triangle plates and the saying, “Okie dokie artichokie!”
I started with a boring ol’ salad, but that Ranch dressing was amaze. 
For my main course I ordered Onion Rings…
with a side of Tuna Sandwich 
I usually keep my onion ring ordering for when Ben is around, but these were all mine. Maybe I should write a book on how not to lose weight. I bet you all could learn a thing or two.
Ben was pretty impressed with my Meatloaf Cupcakes. Mission accomplished. And I got ice cream (page 22 in my book, “How to lose 0 pounds in 10 days”).
I left the Meatloaf Cupcakes on the table for Ben’s dinner when he got home from work. This was our post-dinner convo-
Ben: “How did you make those?!
Me: “Maybe you should check a little website I write called Run, Eat, F-ing Repeat!”
Ben: “Do you own that domain?”
Hahaha I just laughed out loud at that exchange between you and Ben. Classic.
I would read your book 😉 Plus I thought the Meatloaf Cupcakes were a stroke of genius ha.
Love the blog 😀
Oh, my, god. Froyo is probably my most favorite thing riht now. It doesn’t help that I have one within walking distance of my house…. I live in a suburb!! i’m not supposed to have food within walking distance!
You know what is an amazing combo? Ranch and onion rings. So freaking delicious!
Starting a GOTR chapter is so cool. I’d love to start one in my area.
Ah Yogurtland is my favorite place right now. Good thing there isnt one TOO close to me, or else I would be there daily!
This post makes me want to run out and get some yogurt, like now!
I get asked similar questions by my husband and direct him to the blog, which he reads once a month.
Bahaha. This is one of the funniest posts you have written. I laughed several times throughout. That tuna sandwich is huuuuge! amazing.
Onion rings are SO good–sweet, salty, crunchy, warm. Oh my!
at first I thought the dinner line was pointed towards the fro yo in the first picture. my kind of dinner! the onions would be great too 🙂
Katherine
hahahaha. you can totally interview me for that book!
I lived the OC for a short time, and it’s a great place to build a running culture! I miss all the open space to run over there!
Thanks for the comment on my post. You can definitely volunteer AND race, too, at most events!
Where in orange county is the GOTR going to be? I would LOVE to help out.
I think we’re talking about Newport right now.
YOU CRACK ME UP!! You should have a whole chapter in your book dedicated to large bags of m&m’s that your fiance brings home and you just have to help finish.
Onion rings are so delicious! My stomach doesn’t allow me to enjoy them, and yet I drool over them every time.
Hi Monica – I work in Aliso Viejo and live in Costa Mesa and was sad that there were no GOTR chapters in the OC – I was able to work out something with my work and I will be an assistant coach at a school by cal state long beach on Mondays – I have to leave at 230 to be there at 330 but I think I should make it. I am very excited and knew I could not wait for a chapter in OC to start this journey – I am very interested to hear of your progress and would sign up in a heartbeat for any school in the OC. I meet the girls on 2/28!
Hey Destiny! I considered helping in Long Beach, but just couldn’t swing it since Ben and I were a one car family and he needs it too. It sounds like we’re going to need all the help we can get. I’ll keep ya posted!
Destiny,
I live in Costa Mesa too. I looked into Long Beach but couldn’t make it due to my kids schedules. I am so excited if we could get an OC chapter started.
Hi Kellie! I was barely able to make Long Beach work out but thankfully my work was able to work something with me – I will be working 600-230 Mondays – I think an hour will be plenty of time – hopefully! When I went to training last Saturday I did mention my surprise that the OC did not have any chapters and I believe they only added Long Beach this season. Hopefully someday we will get a chapter – it was so awesome to meet the other coaches and everyones passion for this great program just shines through.
I would love to help with girls on the run Orange County chapter. I am running again and would love to volunteer with GOTR. Email me if you have a chance.
We will totally need help!
hahaha, you and ben are too funny.
no yogurtland in teha…but there is a daddy o’s in bakersfield that is pretty nice, but not yogurtland. i miss it…
Speaking of weight, when will the weightloss page be updated?
When I lose some weight.
Ha 🙂
I would read that book 🙂 I just had a croissant, another chapter for how not to lose weight! ha. Also love the meatloaf cupckes, they are so cute and look really good. I am going to make my valentine some pulled brisket, one of his favs.
I could co-write that book with you. Every time I find something delicious that I like, I find myself eating it 2-3 times a day. And it usually involves peanut butter or chocolate (or both!)
Meatloaf cupcakes…what a great idea! And you should totally get that domain STAT.
Those onion rings look tasty…I don’t order onion rings often, but when I do I’m never disappointed.
LOL @ your conversation! You are too funny! I don’t even think my husband knows how to even find my blog! HA!
I’m totally craving tuna after seeing your sandwich! And frozen yogurt…and onion rings 🙂
So excited that you are pursuing GOTR! It is such an empowering program. We have it at the school I teach at. Good luck!!
Thank you!
I love this post! You are too funny–yup I sometimes feel like I should write a blog post about What to Do to Not Lose Weight, haha. Your dinner looks delicious–I also love onion rings and frozen yogurt…Nom…
By the way, you should give artichokes a try. Heat up some butter and dip the slices in, one by one. That’s the only way to eat them, at least according to the gospel of Katie =)
That tuna sandwich looks ginormous! Think of all of those healthy fats 🙂
I’d kill someone for a bowl of Yogurtland and I’m only partially exaggerating
Ben’s comments always make me laugh!
Hilarious!!! I love those meatloaf cupcakes. Must try that. Onion rings and tuna salad? What a great combination. To be honest though, that sandwich scared me. That looks like a whole school of tuna in that thing! How did you ever get it in your mouth??
I had to eat some of it with a fork, which I hate – if a food is supposed to be a “hand” food I have to eat it with my hands!
Great job on looking into GOTR in Orange County. We have one here and I’m looking at ways I can become involved.
ok CRACKING UP at your comment to Ben.
I know youre partially kidding but the same thing happens around here.
A LOT.
OH my gosh! Somehow I missed those meatloaf cupcakes! They are awesome! I will be making them when I babysit! The kids would eat ’em right up!
I’ve been thinking about starting a Girls on the Run chapter in my area. I would love to hear more about your experience.
We are starting from scratch so it sounds like it going to be a long time of ramp up and fundraising. I’ll definitely speak to it when I can 🙂
i have a regard for it I Ate Onion Rings | stream Eat recapitulate now im your rss reader
monica, you definitely are the funniest health/food/fitness-blogger I know … so many other blogs lack that sense of humour … and irony!
greetings from europe
I am OBSESSED with YogurtLand!! Don’t be scared of artichokes…they are beyond delish!!
Ha, you’re too funny! I love the convo you guys had.
Subtitle for your book: Run Eat (delicious things!) Repeat. 😉
