Because I’m Mexican I made Ben a killer quesadilla for dinner… after all Mexican food is my specialty 🙂 Because I’m Mexican, and have quite the voluptuous booty, means my quesadilla must be much smaller so I still fit in my pants… Because I’m Mexican I will not admit that the beans on this salad are from a can. My…

Kickin It
I loved kickboxing! It wasn’t difficult cardio wise, but it was a little challenging to learn all the moves that everyone else seemed to already know. I think my dance/cheer background helped me catch on fast though 🙂 I don’t know what it is but I feel hungry as soon as I leave the gym. I’m thinking it may be…

A purpose for diet bread
I found a great purpose for my old “diet” bread – French Toast! I’ve been craving it and fixing up crappy bread with a good egg mixture, PB and maple syrup was sure to make it good 🙂 I dipped three slices in egg whites, vanilla, cinnamon, splash of milk and chia seeds. Can you see the seeds? I had…

Who Influences Who
I have been blogging for almost two years (!) and reading for longer. Recently, I have been thinking about how I am still so influenced by other blogs. A lot of it is good, I am grateful to Kath for her delicious oatmeal topping ideas and Roni for her honesty about maintaining her weight loss. While I love getting new…

It’s Safe to Assume…
A high school teacher used to tell us to never assume because it made an “ass out of u & me“. But, it is safe to assume… That I will snack on something while making dinner (even though it’s a habit I’m trying to break). In this case it was goat cheese and crackers… It’s safe to assume I will…

I love fruit too much
I just ate a whole cantaloupe. It was dee-lissh! I have a thing where once I start eating ripe fruit I cannot get enough. I think it’s called “ilovefruittoomuchitis”. It’s quite a problem. Breakfast Habits – I think the consensus is – there is no consensus. Everyone must eat breakfast to their own tune. This means different times/foods/work-outs schedules for…

Fighting for Four
I stalled on going for my run and that’s always bad news. After I woke up I checked email, made lunches and did some internet research before getting ready to go. By that time it was after 9am and my stomach felt empty so I had some cereal… For some reason I was not feeling the run today and ended…
