After my 6-miler this morning I was hungry! So I broke up breakfast into 2 parts today… First I made a protein shake with powder, ice and water. It’s not pretty, but it does the trick. I didn’t have time for a full breakfast at home, but I wanted to make sure to refuel. Protein shakes are convenient for this…

Stop snacking, eat a meal
After some messing around on the computer for a bit I started to get hungry and was snacking on nuts and random things when I realized – I’m Hungry.

My Parents are trying to kill me
After last night’s buffet extravaganza I thought I was going to burst! This morning my dad suggested the Holiday Inn buffet for breakfast. (On the plus side, it’s actually a very low priced buffet.)

My first crabs…
I finally tried Maryland crabs today! And I dunno how I feel about it… After a day of sightseeing around Washington D.C. with my family (visiting from CA) we went to Phillips…it is a buffet and it’s dangerous.

Intuitive Eating Challenge & Friday Beverages
Why Wait until Monday? The Intuitive Eating Challenge should start today! I weigh myself on Fridays (for no reason in particular) and realized I have lost 7 pounds since I first wrote the “About” page. Now, that’s not very impressive since I wrote it over a year ago, but I am not 17 pounds away from my goal, I’m only…
