I keep thinking about how to get myself to a place where I practice Intuitive Eating, and I realized that I often do practice Intuitive Running. I have a training plan for reference, but I don’t really use it (which is why I wasn’t too worried about using that super hard plan as a guide). I know roughly how much…

Quaker Find & Recap
Sorry I didn’t post again yesterday. Ben called me at 5pm and wanted me to go straight from work all the way to Orange County to check out a condo he really likes. He wanted to jump on it and put in an offer so I had to see it first. It’s an hour or so drive from where I…

Taking sides
I slept in a bit today & had to rush out the door to my run. It’s good that I rushed out because if I had time to think about it I might have talked myself out of it since I wasn’t exactly looking forward to running so late and being rushed today. I did 5.5 miles or so. When…

Sweet Potato Muffies
Remember when I was making sweet potato cookies the other day? Well, after experimenting with the recipe I realized they are more like a muffin top in consistency.  I had my friends and family taste test & it was agreed – they are muffin tops – well, “Muffies” to be exact. I can’t reveal the recipe as of yet because…

My apologies and My Last Supper…
Two of my friends actually got mad because they believed Ben & I eloped! Sorry guys! April Fools! The picture was actually from when we got engaged. I never wanted to post it because I look like a grease ball, but we had least had to record the memory, right? It was a big surprise & I wasn’t exactly ready…

Just going for it
Ben and I have been really stressed about the wedding & everything we still have to do for it. When we went to go get info about our license yesterday, we decided to just go for it and get married! I’ve kinda always wanted to get married in a spur of the moment fashion – I think it’s romantic, like you’re just…

Dessert daily?
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…
