The problem with oats… Is that they make me hungrier then I was before I ate them. I know I’ve been through this before – but every few months, I try them again – and without fail, I finish the bowl feeling famished. This bowl should have done the trick: banana, sweet potato, ½ cup … Continue reading »

Hooked
I’m hooked on bananas. I used to despise them, but something changed, and now they’re my favorite quick breakfast. Banana split. On the left, Dark Chocolate Dreams PB. On the right: creamy peanut butter with chunks of raw carrot cake. Sandwiched and eaten on my walk to school. For lunch, I had more favorites. I’m … Continue reading »
The Trunchbull
Ahhh, it feels so good to be sitting on my couch. I was exhausted all day. If you’re interested to see what my student’s think of me when I’m exhausted, just skip the post and scroll to the bottom. Otherwise… Breakfast Sweet potato blended with almond milk + peanut butter, chocolate peanut butter, and crunchy … Continue reading »
Tomorrow is Thursday.
More of the same routine today. I’m not complaining – I like to have a regimented schedule. After my workout, I had a small breakfast. Well, it looked small, but there were a lot of calories packed into this ½ cup of mush. 1 banana, 1 tbs. peanut butter, 1 date and this on top… … Continue reading »
Bad Planning

It started out okay… Banana cut in half with peanut butter, flax seed and rolled oats Sandwiched up and eaten in the car Then for lunch (here’s where I really failed at the food-planning thing) 1 cup … Continue reading »

Breakfast Green Monster: 1 cup frozen spinach (don’t forget the frozen spinach key!), ½ cup frozen blueberries, ½ cup soy milk, ½ frozen banana, 2 cups water … Continue reading »
Tattle Turtle
Happy Monday! I hope you all had good ones. I started mine off with level 2 of the thirty day shred. I hadn’t done this in months, and I was surprised by how much strength I maintained. Speaking of strength…remember my push-up challenge? When I started, I couldn’t do a single push up, and I … Continue reading »
Balance
I wasn’t hungry for breakfast this morning, so guess what? I didn’t eat it. I just had coffee for breakfast. Even though there are 1000 people out there telling you to eat breakfast if you want to stay thin – you have to do what works for you. This morning, coffee worked for me. Usually … Continue reading »
So Long to Summer
Last night at 1am, Meeker and I decided to run a race this morning. A few of his co-workers were already signed up, so we though what the heck. 5 hours later, we popped out of bed and headed to register for our town’s So Long to Summer race. I had this banana, peanut butter … Continue reading »
Who doesn’t love French Fries?
The best day of the week (Thursday) was a busy one! I went for an early morning run, bible study, grocery store, my co-worker’s house to help with is little boy, a few more errands, the grocery store again (forgot something!) and was supposed to go to a concert in the park, but Meeker had … Continue reading »
