Just like Stella, I finally have my groove back. Ok wait, I actually mean that I finally have my Gruve back! My Gruve has been MIA since Friday afternoon. I was really worried that I had dropped it at the gym or in the dressing room during Friday’s lunch time shopping spree. Last night I [...]

Apple banana bread to fuel pre-run. I joined a group of friends and went to the South End Athletic Company for their Saturday long run. Between the headwind and the last of my head cold, it wasn’t a good run. I probably could’ve pushed myself to stay with the group, but Jared ate too much [...]

My allergies totally destroyed my appetite. I never even felt hungry today. I just ate because I knew I needed to. I ate a container of pineapple Chobani for lunch. Mmmm. I think I liked it a lot. But when my nose isn’t super stuffy, I’ll have to do a better flavor taste test. I [...]

Was it hard to stay in a bad mood when my dinner looked like this? Yesssss…. Brown rice smooshed into the shape of a heart, chicken, and broccoli. Plus I couldn’t be too cranky while sipping glass of Mark West Pinot Noir. Aww, that’s love. I became a little less bitter while snacking on Chocolate [...]

Even though we ate our dessert first (remember I had JP Licks fro-yo as soon as I finish my run last night?!?), Jared insisted on making dinner when we got home from grocery shopping. He made Annie’s version of hamburger helper. I topped my spinach with French dressing to go with the green and orange [...]

For a bedtime snack, I had some French bread and olive oil. Here’s what my instant oatmeal actually looked like. Less delicious looking than Quaker’s photo; mine were too watery. I beefed it up by adding extra raisins. I snacked on baby carrots dipped in Laughing Cow cheese. For lunch I ate each Arnold Thin [...]

For breakfast, I chose to eat another container of vanilla Chobani. This time I added a little less granola and a spoonful of peanut butter. Like breakfast, my lunch was ALMOST exactly the same as yesterday. I ate another leftover cheeseburger, but this time I had a few tortilla chips on the side instead of [...]

I ate vanilla Chobani and trail mix when I got to the office. I brought a leftover cheeseburger for lunch. I ate the burger with baby carrots on the side. Today was officially Training Day #1 for the Willow Tree Half Marathon. 12 weeks to go! I used this training schedule to create something that [...]

Jared had to stay late at work and I knew I couldn’t wait too long for tapas. So I made a yogurt creation out of plain Chobani, brown sugar, and Cinnamon Raisin Swirl peanut butter. It was pretty good and helped me wait until almost 8 pm to head to Masa. Masa was SO crowded [...]
