Month: August 2012

This is the, “I really need to put some food together for the rest of the week but don’t really want to” face.  But I will be so happy to just grab and go.

I have found that being prepared is the #1 way to avoid a binge or eating something unhealthy.

I always have fun once I get started, but sitting on the floor with my laptop sounds so much more fun!

Btw, today at lunch, I got stuck in a bathroom stall between the door and the toilet.  Not even joking.  This stall was not meant for normal sized people.

Thank God I was alone.

My amazingly spectacular gorgeous drool worthy breakfast:

Ingredients

1/2 cup of raw oatmeal, 1 cup of coconut almond milk, 1 tsp of vanilla extract, 1 packet of Truvia (or any natural sweetener) , 2 tsp of fresh grated ginger, 2 tsp of chia seeds, dash of cinnamon, 1 banana, 1/2 cup strawberries and blueberries, nut butter

  1. Mix together first 8 ingredients (up to banana) in a bowl and mix very well (make sure no cinnamon clumps are left! best suggestion is to mix cinnamon in with oatmeal and all the dry ingredients than pour milk on top)
  2. Let sit in refrigerator overnight covered with plastic wrap!
  3. In the morning layer overnight oats in a parfait put down a layer of oats, than slice strawberries and blueberries and a dollop of any nut butter (i highly suggest sun butter or almond butter!) than repeat until oats and berries are gone, of course put a dollop of nut butter on top! 🙂
  4. enjoy! (possibly make seconds?)

GET IN ME

I have always wanted to make this!

You wanna know what living life to the fullest actually is? It’s waking up on a Monday morning with no complaints. It’s knowing you always deserve to laugh. It’s doing what feels right no matter what. It’s doing what you want to no matter how stupid you look. It’s about being yourself, because no one can tell you you’re doing it wrong.

A weigh-in was not the way to start my day…

BUT, I know what I’m up against, and I just have to bust my butt.

Today, I have a 4 mile run and strength training today, so lots to get my frustrations out on.

I guess that is the part that makes me so mad.  On paper, I should theoretically be losing weight, not struggling to maintain.

Oh well… everyone is different, and at least I know I am healthy (that is me striving to be positive). 

And the chances of me surviving a zombie apocalypse are pretty good.

Reasons to be fit!
