One track mind…ball, ball, ball, ball… [I imagine her mind is focused on nothing else…like the seagulls in Finding Nemo] And when I wasn’t chasing the dogs around, I was showing off my moves like Jagger.

By the Bay

As I mentioned, I’m in Nor Cal for the weekend.  Wedding season never ends when you’re in your late 20’s.  I spent most of Friday in the car (that I-5 is brutal).  But eventually I made it home safe and sound!  Not to self: buy an audiobook for the drive back to LA (recommendations welcome!).  Pre-departure I had a fruity, yogurt, quinoa breakfast bowl.     For those who find soy yogurt a little “off” tasting, try the berry versions…they aren’t as soy-flavored (or however you’d describe that weird after-taste).  It’s mostly just with vanilla or… Read more >

My Thursday started at 4:20 am.  [I always change my alarm to a different time, so I actually think this was a 4:24 day] I wasn’t really feeling very Jillian-esque, so I zoned out to Most Eligible Dallas while pumping iron in my living room.

2 1/2 hours for 2 1/2 inches

Yesterday, after my pancakes had digested, I squished a run into the morning (squished being the operative word).  It was 26 minutes long and I was in such a rush to shower and get ready afterwards that I seriously neglected my post-workout stretching.  Bad runner!   Knowing it would be a mistake to leave without eating first, I whipped this up on my way out the door.  I was so friggin’ rushed that in between pulsing the bullet, I was tearing through my closet, jabbing mascara into my lashes, and chucking whatever I could grab… Read more >
