Working on Vacation
2007-12-29 05:30:00 Still fighting the cold but getting better. I actually got a lot accomplished today. I love being on vacation so I can work on my own projects, isn’t that sad. LOL You may notice a bit of tidying up around here. I’ve edited the side bars a bit, reorganizing and adding a feed from the community and links to the boards. I really want to start spreading the support to all our awesome blogs! More About: Vacation , Working , Workin
POO POO
2007-12-28 05:39:00 That’s how I feel. Before I tell you about my crappy day scroll down a bit and check out my morning scale reading. HOLY COW! That is the highest I’ve seen the scale in over a year at least. I’m not freaking out, I am NOT freaking out. Pasta Queen described my thoughts perfectly in her post Guilt-free Christmas cookies. There just comes a time when you give in because you know you CAN
Resolution Smesolutions
2007-12-27 17:37:00 I’m starting today. So much for my Holiday Goals! Remember them? Enjoy myself and RELAX – Check. Kind of. I had a FABULOUS Christmas Eve and Christmas. I wasn’t even on the computer for about 48 hours straight, that may be a new record for me! But I still had to take care of some stuff. Ahhh the life of an over achiever. ;~P Mindful eating – Oh it was More About: Resolution
Holiday Goals and Wish
2007-12-23 19:35:00 Sorry I’ve been absent for the past few days. As you all know it’s THAT time of year. Shopping, cooking (LOTS of cooking), wrapping, cleaning, I could go on and on. I’m not journaling, I’ve been trying to get to the gym here and there but even that isn’t happening as much as I would like. I decided to declare my holiday goals because I feel like if I don’t things may get out of hand. I More About: Holiday , Goals
Note to Self...
2007-12-21 06:27:00 Wrapping presents all night is NOT an invitation to snack excessively before going to bed. Especially after indulging in brownie a la mode at Chick-fil-a. However.... I AM done wrapping!! :~D More About: Note , Note to Self
Is it possible...
2007-12-19 05:30:00 to be busier now when I’m on winter break then when I was teaching full time? MAN! It’s that schedule thing again. I’m all out of whack and I don’t mean my eating, per say. I’ve been doing really well just not journaling like I normally do. What have I been doing you ask? Well, wrapping up things for school, Christmas shopping, getting tires and breaks on the car (OMG what a time
Crazy Gym Observation and Revelations
2007-12-17 19:53:00 I saw the STRANGEST thing at the gym today. There was a women working out on the nautilus machine in “normal” clothes. That may not sound too bizarre but close your eyes and imagine… Ya ready? A 30-something female in a blue turtle neck sweater, black slacks and dress shoes finishing a set on the chest press and moving to the ab machine. Ya got the mental picture?

YOU give great advice – so I took it.
2007-12-15 19:45:00 I’m the type of person that loves getting advice (well, and giving it too, I guess ;~P). Anyway I have been feeling ‘off’, like I said so did exactly what you all recommended…. “Snap out of it!” - Check. I read that and though, ‘yeah, what’s wrong with me? I just need to snap out of it! So I did! LOL “You know you can do it!!” – Not too sound too egotistical… yeah I do More About: Advice , Great , Give
Something’s going on…
2007-12-14 05:37:00 I’ll say it again, a small shift in my schedule and I’m all off. Now that the semester is over, there just seems to be something going on with me. I’m not happy between 9-11PM unless there is food in arms reach. I think I need to mix things up a bit. Maybe I’ll start posting in the morning or hitting the gym after the toddler goes to bed. Some thing’s got to snap me out of it. I can feel More About: Goin
Brain Dump Post
2007-12-13 06:04:00 I feel like I have so much to tell you but I can’t come up with a clever way to string it all together so I decided to take the easy way out and just list them. My brain works better this way anyway… The Melting Pot was AWESOME! Yes, you can totally go overboard, but if you go easy on the cheese, and use a broth fondue for the main course you are in good shape. Now the dessert on the More About: Post , Brain
So far so good….
2007-12-11 23:00:00 I’m midday posting as I’m off to dinner with the husband, the toddler and some old friends. We decided on the Melting Pot. I’ve never been there and I’m looking forward to it. My day so far has gone well and I’m not going to ‘ruin’ it with one meal. When I say ‘ruin’, I mean it in two ways…. I am NOT going to just totally pig out with complete disregard for health/points/calories/
BEWARE – Whiny post ahead…
2007-12-11 05:36:00 My schedule is totally out of whack. It’s finals week, I’m stressed, I’m tired and I have a TON of work to do. That being said I rushed to get to work this morning and totally forgot lunch. ME, “Miss Prepared” didn’t even think about it. I’ve been bringing my lunch all semester without fail. It’s amazing what a small shift in your schedule can do to you. Well, to me. I’m all disheveled. More About: Post , Beware
Quick Weekend Update
2007-12-10 05:21:00 Staying up late when the toddler is in an early phase is not recommended. I’m exhausted tonight! I took a few days off from journaling and I was doing really well until tonight when I splurged on some baked Doritos and Fudge Stripe Cookies. :~( This weekend I spent a ton of time in the kitchen. I posted another video, baked some cookies, and made sauce. I also made it to the gym, weighed More About: Weekend , Update , Quick , Weekend Update
Light Touch Muffins - A Review
2007-12-08 06:17:00 A few weeks ago, Andrew from Linda’s Diet Delites asked if I’d try and write a review for Light Touch Muffins . He sent me a sample of the Zucchini flavor and honestly, I wasn’t expecting much. I mean it’s a zucchini muffin! How good could it possibly be? Well, I think you’ll be surprised by the answer. The first thing I noticed about the muffin was it’s size. Wrapped in a clear plastic it was More About: Review , Fins
I talk a BIG game but when push comes to shove...
2007-12-07 05:49:00 I cave. Just a week ago, I got on my soapbox and declared my hatred of fast food. I believe my exact quote was… “…I am starting a boycott of fast food restaurants that do not provide good service or good food. Life is too short to waste a meal on junk and deal with bad service.” Alight so I’m still good. I did NOT really break my boycott when I went to Chick-fil-A tonight.

What’s the 500lb Weight Loss Secret?
2007-12-06 05:07:00 THE INTERNET, of course. Apparently, I’m the only weight loss blogger who hasn’t seen the Oprah Weigh t loss show (geesh people don’t you work?) ;~). I’ve seen post after post about it tonight while catching up some blog reading. Apparently, weight loss blogs are getting some press lately. And so they should be!

*phew* I made it through the day!
2007-12-05 06:18:00 I have like a BILLION things to tell you and a billion comments/emails to catch up on (all right, maybe a slight overstatement), but there is a lot and I need sleep! I’ll catch up and fill you in tomorrow. I did great today and when the munchies hit late night I went for the grapes this time! I also gave away the leftover pizza! I couldn’t bear throwing it away.

TRYING to put the weekend behind me...
2007-12-04 04:58:00 but I’m having a REALLY hard time. I was totally in control until 6pm today. Then it happened. The pizza came. Pizza + Hormones = Overeating DISASTER Since Saturday, it’s like I am not happy unless I’m actively chewing on something. You would think the gross, heavy, “I feel like I gained 25lbs” feeling would curb it, but NOoooo. Right now I’m nibbling on graham crackers. I MUST BE More About: Weekend

I Took the Video Leap!
2007-12-01 06:28:00 I’ve been thinking about it for a long time and finally decided to give it a try. Check out my video on cutting butternut squash. A few people emailed asked how I do it and to be honest it’s much easier to show then to write out. So there ya go! I don’t have an official food journal tonight.

Fast Food Fiasco – A Rant
2007-11-30 05:53:00 I don’t think I’ve ever ranted on this blog. Have I? Well I’m about due. Let me start at the beginning…. I’ve had a long busy day, running here, running there, trying to squish too many things in 24 hour period as usual. There was no time for dinner so I decided the little guy and I would hit the drive thru on the way to the gym.

2 VERY Different Days
2007-11-30 05:52:00 Sorry I was missing in action yesterday. I spent the very little time I had posting Mommy and Me Omelets on GreenLiteBites. Maybe this 2 blog thing wasn’t such a good idea. I love working on both of them equally and now I’m torn at night. Tonight was even worse because I HAD to write about my Fast Food Fiasco. Anyway, I still journaled yesterday so I wanted to post both menus (with a More About: Days , Diff
Are you happy?
2007-11-28 05:47:00 I’m tired, lazy and spent too much time updating my food blog. So I’m cutting it short tonight but wanted to pass on a great post by Carolyn from One Pound at a Time. It’s nice to read a happy post, especially one where someone recognizes what they have accomplished and sees the positive changes in herself. Call me a sap, but I almost teared up reading it.

Sensational Sunday even with a Gain
2007-11-26 05:42:00 Yes, yes, yes, I gained. I knew I did. It wasn’t a surprise. However, I am NOT letting it get out of hand. I took control today and I feel GREAT! So great actually I’m going to cut this short.

bleh, Bleh and BLEH!
2007-11-25 05:45:00 I feel yucky. Yup, yucky, and bleh. Those are about the only words to describe me right now. I’m exhausted, tired, stuffed, bloated and overall YUCKY! I ate too much every day since the day before Thanksgiving. That’s how many days?

I'm out of my element at my parents house and I tend to overeat a bit when I'm here. Mostly becuase there is so much more available. What is it about grandparents and junkfood?!?!
