I actually never ate guacamole or avocados until a few years ago – have no idea why I averted them for so long!  But first, my friend and I did level 3 of Jillian, and then I did 15 minutes of sprint/jog/walk.  I earned my sticker! so filling! Altogether lunch comes in at 581 calories, 28 fat and 42 carbs (thanks to the delicious avocado!)...

Got up this morning and rode their bike for 30 minutes?  Yep, that would be me!    It’s been so long since I have ridden my bike – it was hard!  And I never really remember how hilly my neighborhood is until I am on my bike!  It felt good though to start the day like that, and it was slighly on the cool side which...

With the restaurant closed that I wanted to go to, I decided that we go to Biaggi’s for a late lunch.  Um, turns out that ALL restaurants are busy on mothers day!  So we ended up having to eat at the bar, which Hannah felt awesome doing by the way!   I didn’t mind though, because the bar area was not busy.   Being an Italian restaurant, of course...

I hope every Mother is having a great day!   Tony and Hannah made me a delicious breakfast.  It started off with fresh coffee.  Tony ended up making a Mexican bake (not sure what else to call it!).  It had sliced potatoes, eggs, cheese, spicy chorizo sausage and salsa – and no mothers day breakfast would be complete without corned beef hash!  Hannah also sliced up...

I met my mom and sister for lunch and it was so good!   When I got back home, Tony looked at the menu and was like “that sounds good, no that’s sounds good!”   He loves oysters on the half shell so I see a date night at Shaw’s in our near future! I had a glass of pinot grigio – I forgot to write down...

I ended up not having to work late, and our game got canceled because we didn’t have enough people.  Hannah had to work last night, so it was me and Tony!!   After going back and forth, we decided on KFC for dinner.  Did you print out the Oprah coupon for the free grilled chicken?  We didn’t, but there was a big sign on the door saying...

That’s what someone in the gym told me today!  I was the only one down there, so I put Jillian’s 30 day shred in.  I decided to do Level 2 since I hadn’t done in it in a while – I was sweating bullets by the end! So about 10 minutes in, a guy steps on the elliptical.  I told him I was only half...

Wow, this week went by really fast for some reason!  Although its going to be a busy work day 🙁 I didn’t make any of my food last night like I normally do, so I just threw some stuff together last minute.  Tony and I stayed up and watched Hell’s Kitchen that we DVRd.  Do you watch this show?  My money is with Paula!  I just...

So if you go to a place that’s known for burgers, you don’t order a salad!  I ended up getting the poblano burger with “chef’s vegetables.”  I put the veggies in quotes because it was a bowl of canned corn, with a few green beans and ONIONS!  Needless to say, I didn’t eat much of the veggies! But first, I started out with this:  ...

Today I worked out by myself.   No one was in the gym so I did level 3 of the shred.  I tend to push myself more if I am in a group of people, and find that I can just “go through the motions” if I am by myself.  But you know what?  I probably pushed it harder today than I ever have!   I decided...
