*Note – some of the answers to your anonymous questions are in this post. But more formal answers for the rest of the questions are to come. It’s only day two of the meal plan I set up for myself this week and I already realized it’s not working. I usually aim for 1,800 calories when I am trying to…

Burnt Toast
I like my toast (and brussel sprouts) burnt, but today I went a little far with it! It’s okay I still ate and enjoyed it 🙂 I made cinnamon sugar toast and had an egg fluff on the side for protein. I also munched on some blubes while making coffee and burning the toast. I used half an english muffin…

Diet GPS
Even if you don’t have a GPS you have probably been in a car at one time with one. If so, then you know what happens when you go the wrong way… Suddenly Tomtom (or whoever is directing you) says, “What the hell you loser?! I told you to go left, why did you go right?! You are stupid…” No….

Mexican Meatless Monday – Mexican Pizza
For this installment of Mexican Meatless Monday I wanted to do a Mexican take on one of my favorite foods – Pizza! Pizza actually might be my all time favorite food and I love trying new kinds.

Shakes at the Mall
After church Ben dropped me off at the mall while he ran an errand. I walked around and around for almost and hour before he was back. By that time it was almost 2pm so we figured we’d have lunch. The whole time I was walking by myself everything looked so tempting, but I didn’t think I was hungry since…

Eating like I’m training
Today I did 8.77 miles very slow. Ugh, I don’t know what’s up with my pace lately 🙁 I was shooting for between 8 and 10 miles depending on how I felt. My knee started hurting around mile 4 and went away for a bit, then came back. I’m going to ice it in a bit. I guess I’m used…
