Whenever I run early in the morning, I find myself getting hungry for a snack before lunch. I’ll have my normal oatmeal breakfast, have a snack bar mid morning and a late lunch. I would rather have higher calorie and nutrient dense breakfast that will keep me full until lunch. This week I switched things […]

I was excited to be outdoors again today. It has been a chilly week and I’ve been a hermit. I get cold easily so when Chris said he was feeling cold (he usually runs hot), you can bet that I was freezing. Ok, not really freezing. That’s just the drama queen coming out of me. […]
Here are some of my favorite things lately: Canyon Bakehouse Gluten Free Bread – I eat this bread toasted and then put half of an avocado on top with a little sprinkling of salt most mornings. I eat half before I workout and then eat the other half with my eggs after working out. […]
I rocked 80s gear this weekend. My friends and I ran the She Runs LA 10K race (my 2nd consecutive year of running this fun race) and it was a blast. It was a new course, new location and new theme = extra excited!! The race festivities and concert were at Paramount Studios in L.A. […]

I’m helping […]
Typically on Fridays, we do flashback Friday. Well, we are going to change it up a bit here and do a “flashforward” Friday, you know, like the in the show “Lost”. Flashforward Friday will be to our wedding day. A small glimpse of our wedding day in Puerto Vallarta, 1 month and 3 weeks from […]
This week, I am participating in the life documenting process called Week In The Life. You can do this any way you want and it looks different for everybody. This is my first time doing this so I just did what came easy to me and what I can do with the time I have. […]
Even though we had a rainy St. Patrick’s Day weekend, I know that Spring is on its way. Look what’s blooming now in my garden. Even though I have neglected my garden recently, I haven’t had time to do some weeding and I go for days without watering the flowers because of my busy schedule, […]
The heat is back, so I tried to make dinner without using the oven. I did use our toaster oven (we have a mini size) a few times. I had leftover Rotisserie chicken from the weekend that I shredded and mixed with our favorite BBQ sauce below. I used the chicken BBQ meat to […]
