As Kyle and I attempt to empty our fridge and freezer before moving, I have discovered both the pros & cons of pre-packaged meals. Pro: Mindless, easy prep (box –> plate? even a caveman Kyle can do that) Con: Stipation (where the greens at, yo?) Ok, we aren’t eating ONLY thawed sh!t… I still had some odds and ends that I pulled together for a salad, which included the raw One Lucky Duck Rosemary quackers I bought last week. I sampled a few with hummus and they were pretty tasty. My only issue was that… Read more >

Do you see the problem here? I don’t know WHAT I was thinking when I was packing this food up…clearly there was no shot in hell that this amount of food would tide me over for my entire 12 hour shift. Salad? Check. Apples? Double check. Pretz/carob/raisins? Check. Drank? Check. And yet, all those goodies weren’t even close to enough food…by my 2 pm lunch break I was left with nothing but my ensalada. Where the bars at, yo?!?! Indeed, supplementation was very necessary (see below). I bought this big a$$ tub of nuts/carob… Read more >

It’s no secret, I love trips home. West Coast sunshine, family and friends…can’t get enough! This trip was jam packed, due to Kyle’s birthday celebration and an insane amount of wedding planning. Since I have photos up the hoo-ha, I’ll try to avoid the mundane (read: heaps of Stacy’s pita chips and hummus), such as this: And show you only the highlights, like this: Brewskies and cake. Now that’s a trip home! As I mentioned before, Friday was Kyle’s birthday, so we celebrated all day long. The key to having a fabulous birthday is having… Read more >

An Anti-Atrophy Agenda that is…(if you missed part one, or the OG dilemma, click away). Otherwise, I’ll just continue where I last left off… 2. As per several of your comments, I am going to be travelling outside my comfort zone and giving group classes a shot. Because I am a wuss, the only ones I have ever done are spinning [which I love(d)]. I don’t know how I fell off the wagon with those… Anyways, since I am working on diversifying my exercise, I think classes are the way to go. To start out,… Read more >
