I accidentally erased my breakfast pics!  They were spicy oats with a fried egg: 355 calories, 28 carbs, 19 fat and 19 protein.  I had every intention of hitting the gym hard at lunch today, but I forgot about a work luncheon!  It ended up being sandwiches and salad – not too bad, except for some odd reason after I ate 1/2 of a sandwich...

There is a theory that you should eat this way.  Breakfast being your biggest meal, then a lighter lunch and even a lighter dinner.  I believe my day went like this: Breakfast like a Prince, Lunch like a Pauper and Dinner like a King!  In the whole grand scheme of things, I met all my goals except going over in the grams of fat department...

Seriously, where did the time go?  I distinctly remember me and my sister looking at Hannah sleeping in her crib when she was about six weeks old.  We were still living together when I had Hannah at the age of 23.  We had every intention of continuing to live together until I lost my job the day I got back from maternity leave!  Luckily we...

There.  I said it!  While everyone around me knows that I am NOT a morning person, somehow I convince myself each and every night that I am!  But all was not lost.  While I didn’t wake up in time to go to the gym, I did get up in enough time to do Level 3 of 30 day shred AND take my dog on a...

Yep.  I faced the music this morning.  I stepped on the scale after a couple weeks of not weighing in and the number was 166!  I was 160.5 the last time I weighed in!  I know a lot of that is water weight – I ate more and had more cocktails over the weekend, so I can imagine my weigh in tomorrow will be around...

We had the best night downtown last night! We left the house around 2:00 and stopped at a place called Moretti’s for lunch. The place was huge and practically empty! When we asked the bartender if it was going to be a busy Halloween night, he shrugged his shoulders and said they’d be lucky to get 5 customers in! Tony said this place used to...

Our work party was a lot of fun!  And for the third year in a row I won funniest costume!  Now my costume was not elaborate, but it totally fit me – I went as Julia Child!  Bon Appetit!  I was going to do a cooking demonstration, but everyone was hungry and started eating. I made mummy hot dogs (no picture – they went fast!)...

It’s my office annual Halloween party and my costume is going to kick ass!  You’ll just have to come back tomorrow night for the pictures! 😀 It’s the end of the week, I didn’t do a full grocery shop this week, so it was my yogurt/granola/apple combo – but I added a tablespoon of peanut butter for dipping for extra protein and calories. I picked...

reason I love my Tony!  The computer I use to blog is our household computer, not a lap top.  It’s been running slow and he did some clean up on it tonight and now it is lightening fast!  I really need to delete some photos though – considering I’ve been blogging for over a year there are WAY too may pictures of food!  Thanks for...

Today was a balancing act with my blood sugar.  it always happens when I jump back into exercise.  My goal was to work out at the gym two mornings this week, and I thought I set my alarm for 6:30, but it was 6:50.  I probably could have made it, but I decided to stay home and do Level 1 of Jillian’s 30 day shred. ...
