I have been meaning to make overnight oats for the longest time and keep forgetting! I think it’s way too hot now for hot oatmeal and I’ve been missing a bowl o’ oats 🙂 I found this yogurt at Costco this weekend (they didn’t have it the last time I went). I hope it’s a regular item there! In the…

I am so excited, especially because the wedding, move in CA, new job, roadtrip across the US and everything has made our lives pretty…

Bowl O'Smoothie
Rest day = 45 minute walk this morning before it got hot 🙂 I really wish I was craving PB Stuffed French Toast this morning since I don’t have time to make “fancy” breakfasts during the week, but all I really wanted was a smoothie. So, I made a big smoothie in a bowl topped with granola and it really…

Something's Missing
I am kinda getting used to long runs on Saturdays, so the 2 part run yesterday made me feel like something was missing. It was really weird, but I didn’t feel like I got a good run in at all. Maybe my legs were just restless? Saturday eats are often random for me because I eat breakfast late and/or and…

Roni (Roni’s Weigh) had a link to My “No Diet” Diet – that is one person’s journey to Intuitive Eating. I love it. This article really shows how much of a scary process Intuitive Eating is after years of dieting. I feel like I could have wrote this exactly. It gave me chills it was so close to my own…

Empty Snack Drawer
Since I just started this job I haven’t brought any snacks to work that I just left there. I have been eating the snack, lunch and snack I’ve been taking. This is fine, until today when for some reason I brought a shitty bag of popcorn for an afternoon snack. Poor choice of snack Monica, seriously. But, earlier today I…

Two steps forward, two steps back
Today is a Rest Day so I hit up the apartment gym for some elliptical time like on those Nordictrack RW600 vs RW700. I am not all about the elliptical since I don’t get “lost” in the workout like I do with my runs so it’s kinda boring. I meant to make my 5 year plan during my workout, but…
