There is a certain peacefulness that I feel on Saturdays. It is the one day of the week that I get to sleep as late as I want, get up and do what I want to do in the morning. I don’t have to go to work, I don’t have any set plans for Saturday… Continue reading I ❤ Saturdays
Just Checkin’ In
It's a good thing I am not trying to keep up with Daily blogs anymore, because I am off track! I have been a little MIA lately without much time to blog. The last week or two have been full of long days at work and studying at night for finals. I'm looking forward to… Continue reading Just Checkin’ In
Family + Fitness
Sorry in advance for the longest blog I have ever written. I was feeling extra motivated and the words just started pouring out much like my sweat did when I was running three miles this evening, thinking about writing this post. I'm sure that I have mentioned it before, maybe a million times, my husband… Continue reading Family + Fitness
What to do about breakfast – Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
Breakfast has been a tough one for me while being Paleo. I end up with only about 5 minutes to grab something for breakfast after I run out the door. I am not a morning person, I think I mentioned that. I get up with exactly just enough time to shower, put on a touch… Continue reading What to do about breakfast – Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
Adventures in Pie Land.
So as I mentioned in my previous post, I was assigned a pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving. Now keep in mind that this whole preparing food thing, is still very new to me. Baking is a whole different ballgame. I think once I tried to make Tollhouse cookies, out of that tube in the refrigerator section… Continue reading Adventures in Pie Land.
What Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas. Including getting off the diet track.
Okay, so unfortunately I am not here to report good news. My intentions to maintain Paleo eating in Vegas were far from successful. Do you know how hard it is to find anything to eat under $20 in Vegas? Let alone Paleo friendly food? Vegas is full of fancy restaurants, fast food and buffets. There… Continue reading What Happens in Vegas, Stays in Vegas. Including getting off the diet track.
Viva Las Vegas
So, it is Wednesday night about 8:45 and as of two hours ago, the start of our vacation! I don't have to think about work for the next 5 days - I probably will any way, though. Tomorrow morning, bright and early at 7:10am (whose idea was it to leave that early, anyway?) we are… Continue reading Viva Las Vegas
Earned It
You know that feeling after a full day of manual labor? Or a new exercise routine that you aren't use to? That feeling when you have to request assistance in order to put on a t-shirt or tie your shoes? That is the feeling I have today. I woke up this morning so sore that… Continue reading Earned It
Sunday Funday
Part One: Woke up this morning and went straight to the gym! I didn’t think I would have the energy for it after my cardio date with the treadmill last night and truthfully, I didn’t have the energy but I made myself get up and go anyways. Today was day one of weightlifting. No, nothing… Continue reading Sunday Funday
It’s good to have goals.
My husband is a weightlifter. Like a real one. He even has trophies. He deadlifts over 500lbs and competes two or three times per year. Watching him deadlift is one of the proudest moments for me. His strength and determination is inspiring. I have been really excited to see how my body is changing –… Continue reading It’s good to have goals.
