I’m so excited to EAT FRUIT today! Wahoo! I’ve been on a “healthy cleanse” diet the past couple of weeks and today we get to add in fruit. I’m so happy about it. 🙂 I’m sorry to say the first fruit I ate was half of an overripe banana. Ewww. I ate my typical (weird healthy cleanse) breakfast this morning; eggs + chicken and guac. I didn’t take a pic today, but here’s a pic from a couple days ago, This breakfast is actually very tasty, albeit very unorthodox! After breakfast, I went to my 9:00 class at the gym.

Protein Balls Never Tasted So Good!
First off, I have to post a very cute picture… These two little cuties have been in their Halloween costumes for 3 days straight! The first thing my 2 year old says in the morning is, “I wanna be HULK!,” and my 4 year old thinks he really IS Captain America. It’s adorable and I just want to eat them both up all day long. I wish I could just freeze them and have a perma 2 year old and 4 year old forever. They are so much fun. ********************** Moving on. I’m still going strong with my little diet Continue Reading…
I Made it Through Week #1!
Well, I officially made it through week #1 of my “healthy cleanse” diet. Wahoo! It’s been tough, but for the most part I just try to “get ‘er done” and not over think it. I’ve pretty much been eating different variations of the same thing. It is getting very old. Here are some pics of my “creations”…. Scrambled eggs (1 whole egg + 4 egg whites) and chicken topped with low sugar ketchup and Walden Farms Ranch Dressing. How ’bout that???? More eggs! Yes, 1 whole egg +4 egg whites scrambled with peppers, onions and spinach topped with low sugar Continue Reading…
A Fun Race + Healthy Food!
I had the funkiest breakfast EVER this morning… Two hard boiled eggs (mostly just the whites), chicken and cocoa roast almonds! Ya. Weird. I went to the gym this morning and wanted to grab something quick I could eat in the car. Soooo, I came up with this! It was actually pretty good! When I got home, I made myself a yummy protein shake (sorry, no pic.) Later on, I baked a bunch of Yukon Gold potatoes and sweet potatoes. Here’s what Kev and I did with them…. Kev’s plate. He took a Yukon Gold potato (yes, it’s under there) Continue Reading…
It’s Nice to Not have a Raging Appetite!
Well I am officially on Day #5 of my “healthy cleanse.” Yay! I actually really love doing things like this. It’s tough, but I know a little self discipline is good for me! I already live a pretty healthy lifestyle, but I know my “healthy lifestyle” can quickly become a little too casual and comfy if I’m not careful. I told y’all I had 5+ pounds creep up on my lately. I don’t like that! Soooo, I think it’s a good idea to jump start the system every once in a while! In fact, I think I’ll do this cleanse Continue Reading…
My “Healthy Cleanse” Adventure
Well guys, I just started a “healthy cleanse” yesterday and I think it’s awesome! First off, I must say I hate the word “cleanse.” When I hear that word, I immediately think of all sorts of wacko and unhealthy diets. I assure you, the healthy cleanse I am doing is just that….”a healthy cleanse.” Yay. Before I tell you all about it, I have to tell you a story about how I decided to do this little cleanse. Here goes…. I have always had a poor immune system and seem to get sick really easily. If I’m not sick, I Continue Reading…
