What do you think about having dessert everyday? I want dessert everyday after dinner. I think this is a bad habit, but I don’t have the willpower to just stop all together. Denying myself dessert only makes me want to eat every dessert in sight. I don’t want to have to eat dessert, but I can’t make a rule against…

Birthday Bash!
I wanted to do something fun for my friend Adriel’s, birthday. I decided to throw a BASH – literally. I got him a pinata to destroy at work! We spun him around so much he didn’t even know where it was… Finally, he cheated, took off the blindfold and stabbed it. I didn’t realize he had this violent side… I…

"That's a good workout"
Today is a new day! I woke up and did 5.9 miles, during the run I ran up and down the 1 hill in my area 4 times. A guy walking up the hill to work said, “That’s a good work-out.” It made me feel very proud of myself! I run as much as my chubby little Mexican legs can…

No comment.
That is my thought on tonight’s eats. I came home and snacked and snacked and snacked while making dinner. By the time dinner was ready I wasn’t even hungry anymore.

Thanks to Quaker, I'm a boxer
I went to yoga first thing this morning 🙂 It was the Power Vinyasa Flow class and I had never done it before, so I was a little scared. Luckily, I did okay and enjoyed myself. Before I left I had a big bowl of oats I received my great robe/slippers/granola bar pack from the great oats company – Quaker….

Come fly with me…
I was terrified when I first saw the plane we would be flying in to Santa Barbara. It was tiny! Ben is still studying for his license so the instructor was with us (thank God!). The views were amazing! I know I’m partial, but Southern California is so beautiful – I love it. I had to wear headphones to be…

All the stars aligned…
All the stars aligned this morning and I finally had a great run! I am so happy because I felt very beaten down from a week of bad runs. I guess it happens. I have said in the past that all the stars have to align in order for me to have a good run since I’m not “made” to…
