Oh my word guys, I have so many things to share with y’all. I decided not to blog all weekend long because I wanted to get a bunch of things done and chill out a bit. It was so nice. ********************* I’m still going strong with Body for Life! I’ve only been doing it 9 days, but I love it so much. In fact, I’ve decided that out of all the “weight loss/healthy living” programs I’ve ever tried, this one is by far my favorite. It definitely takes a lot of planning and hard work, but it just makes sense Continue Reading…
Back to School + First Day of Body for Life
Oh my word guys, I had a very traumatic experience this morning. I took my two oldest kids to Middle School this morning, no problem. Later, I took my 4th grader over to the Elementary School. He really wanted me to walk with him to help him find his class, so I parked the van on the side of the road so I could walk with him. Anyway, my sweet dog Jimmer LOVES to ride with us to take the kids to and from school; it’s seriously the highlight of his day. So, I was just going to leave him Continue Reading…
A Fun 5k and Yummy Food
I ran a very fun 5k this morning with Kev and my friend, Amy. It was sponsored by the local hospital and I loved it! It was called a “Family 5k”, so there were a bunch of kids (some of them on bikes) and even a few dogs. It was great. I ate a yummy chocolate protein pancake before we left for the race… I just pulled it out of the freezer, popped it in the toaster and topped it with peanut butter, berries and a little sugar-free syrup. Yum! Here we are getting ready to head out to the Continue Reading…
Les Mis, Good Food and A WINNER!
Well, the Oscars were last night. Did any of you watch??? I didn’t watch, but I’ve been checking out all the results this morning. I was really rooting for Les Miserables!! Oh my word, I LOVED the movie so so much! I thought it was so well done, perfectly cast and just phenomenal. I bawled like a baby through the whole thing. I also made Kev see it in the theater with me twice. He loved it too, btw. I’m now waiting for it to go to the dollar theater so we can see it again! 😉 Sooo, I was Continue Reading…
My Favorite Breakfasts!
I love breakfast SO much! I have so many yummy recipes I actually crave and look forward to eating each morning. About 99.9% of the time, my breakfast consists of one of three things; Eggs Protein pancakes Oatmeal That’s it. BUT, I have so many variations of these three basic things, that I never get tired of them! I’ve shared a lot of my recipes with y’all already, but there are several more I haven’t shared yet! Soooo, I thought I would share! Eggs I usually eat eggs scrambled (1 whole egg + 3 egg whites) topped with a little Continue Reading…
Healthy New Year’s Goals Week #1
Happy Monday! First off, I’m having a bit of a tough time blogging today because of this dang cute kid… What a cutie patootie. He keeps bringing me his Jessie doll saying things like, “Mom, you be Jessie.” and “Play with me.” How cute it that!? So, I’ve been taking a few “Jessie breaks.” What a sweet pea. I just love him so much!! Anyway, I thought I would check in to let you all know how my New Year’s goals went this past week… I officially give myself a B+ for effort and a D for results! 🙁 I Continue Reading…
