I had a bowl of Raisin Bran before I left for work.  I probably should’ve poured a mug of coffee before I left but I was running short on time.  I decided I’d power through the day instead.  I’m a little bit sleepy! I snacked on a Clemintine.  This is an especially good box since [...]

Strawberries for a snack. Sandwich with vegetable hummus, carrots, cucumbers, and greens.  Plus a bag of Sunchips! Yes, yes I wore Ugg boots to work today. And yes, they are old and stinky but they are WARM and so comfy. I didn’t plan any of my workouts this week.  I have some idea of what [...]

I was SO hungry when I woke up this morning that I didn’t even bother to make a nice breakfast.  I grabbed the nearest box of cereal and poured a bowl.  Raisin bran with granola, mmm! I was really excited for today’s lunch.  Annie’s Mac and Cheese, leftover brussel sprouts, and a little bit of [...]

*December Meetup!* For those that are interested, there’s going to be a healthy living meetup on December 19th at 7pm. We’ll be meeting at the statue in front of Fanuiel Hall across the street from the stairs to the Government Center T stop. The plan is to look at Christmas decorations and find somewhere to [...]

Better late than never!  I’m officially joining Angela’s Whittle My Middle in 30 Days Challenge. The challenge began November 11 and goes until December 9.  I missed the first 9 days, but I’m still going to work my hardest for the remaining 21 days.  3 weeks is enough time to make a difference in my [...]
