Since I obviously have no problem telling you guys embarrassing things about myself, (like when I eat a doughnut and an ice cream sandwhich because I’m stressed) I thought I will add to the list of things you may judge me on with this: I love Brooke Hogan right now. Isn’t that random? I caught her VH1 show on reruns…

The First Day
I’ve decided that today is the first day of my healthy weight loss journey. I have learned a lot over the last few months about my body, cravings, Intuitive Eating and more. Now I am going to put it all in action. I think I have been way too easy on myself and don’t make a big enough effort to…

Frijoles with Spinach
I had a very.bad.day.of.eating. Very bad. This always happens when I say I am going to entirely cut out certain foods. I guess restricting for so long has built up some resentment with my willpower and it completely fights against me at the first sign of anything resembling a diet. This is especially frustrating because I truly want to lose…

On second thought…
Lunch was open faced grilled cheese with a big carrot, tomatoes and hummus. Yogurt on the side for dessert/dairy. Then, I realized that I love to eat yogurt with some kind of topping.

Stress tooth
I had a major stress tooth (instead of sweet tooth) this afternoon and had a random candy from a candy jar at work and half of this bar for a snack, I used to live off of these. I love when dinner is ready for you when you get home & that’s basically the case with leftovers! I just heated…

Race Week
The OC Half Marathon is 6 days away which means it is Taper Week. Since I am not running this race like a “race”, but rather just trying to keep myself in shape with high mileage for a full mary in the distant future I’m not too concerned with serious taper. But, I am planning on scaling back running a bit to rest…
