Weekend Highlights

September 28, 2008

This will be quick. And pictureless. But I wanted to share. Regular updates will resume tomorrow.
-Friday’s workout was BALLER. I took a 60 minute kickboxing class, which was pretty good, but when I was done, I felt like I had more energy to get out. I jumped on the treadmill for an additional 3 mile [...]

Successful!

September 26, 2008

Success #1: I slept till 10:30 today! I’ve been having a lot of trouble falling asleep lately- I’ll toss and turn for a couple hours, no matter what time I try to go to bed. And my body has this internal alarm clock that goes off at 9 am without fail (if my real alarm [...]

A Cup of Tea and a Good Book

September 25, 2008

The second I woke up this morning, I knew the gym just wasn’t happening today. From my bed, I could see that the sky was grey, and I could hear the rain and the wind on the skylight. It was all I could do just to make it to class. Fall is officially here, folks, [...]

Simple.

September 24, 2008

The rest of the day was much more successful on the food front.
For lunch, I had a tofurkey sandwich with spinach and laughing cow on whole wheat. I tried a new kind of tofurkey: peppercorn. Halfway through the sandwich I decided hot sauce would go well with the “kick” of the peppercorn, so I added [...]

Soupy Mess

September 24, 2008

Since I don’t have class until 2 today, I decided to get a little more creative with my oatmeal. When I left for school, my mom gave me a can of light coconut milk that had been in the pantry- she wasn’t using it, and she thought maybe I could turn it into something fun! [...]

Stop and Breathe

September 23, 2008

Phew! I had SUCH a fun weekend with my boyfriend, but I’ve been paying for it for the last 48 hours! I got home Sunday evening, and immediately set to work: I had a paper due Monday and TWO papers due today!! It’s been ridiculous and there has been a lot of instant oatmeal and [...]

Late Night

September 19, 2008

This is gonna have to be a quick post because I spent the last 5 hours in the waiting room of the ER (nothing serious, just friend who sprained an ankle, but it took for.freaking.ever) and ALL I WANT TO DO IS SLEEP.
Dinner last night: a hodgepodge of things. skyr.is yogurt (so thick and creamy [...]

Snacking the Day Away

September 17, 2008

I think I’m going to start doing daily re-caps instead of trying to post throughout the day: this way you’ll get my whole day’s worth of food and I won’t just forget to post after breakfast. I seem to be good at that. Plus, this works with my schedule every day. Hopefully, over breaks and [...]

More Bars in More Places

September 16, 2008

I’ve decided that over the next few days I’m going to do a little work on the blog- make it a little more exciting and a little more me. I’m going away this weekend (Friday night to Sunday afternoon) and starting next week I hope to have a slew of exciting posts for you all!
Now, [...]

Busy Bee

September 13, 2008

Hey everybody! Sorry I disappeared yesterday. My to-do list got much longer than I expected and suddenly it was time for bed! Don’t worry, though. I definitely fit in that peanut butter ice cream:

 
This morning, when I went downstairs, I planned on making pumpkin oatmeal for breakfast. However, there was someone sleeping on our couch, [...]
