Published on Mar 28th, 2008 in Cooking/Recipes | 2 Comments »

I have absolutely no time for a sit down dinner tonight, let alone prepare one! My schedule has me going from work to singing lessons and then off to a concert. I still need to eat dinner, though.
We all have hectic schedules sometimes.  But instead of making a run to the fast food drive through for convenience [...]

Published on Mar 26th, 2008 in Just Plain Fun | 1 Comment »

Don’t you love a good, hardy laugh? You know, the kind that makes you feel like you did 100 crunches? (Those laughs really do give your abs a workout too!) Anyway, my mood needed some toning and lifting yesterday. I was in a purple funk. Oh, yes, there is such a [...]

Day After A Binge

Published on Mar 24th, 2008 in Cravings, Nutrition, Weight Loss | 5 Comments »

Holidays are prime times to eat way more than is necessary with meals that are extremely rich and loaded with calories!

Noticing Habits - Discoveries From My Food Journal

Published on Mar 21st, 2008 in food journal | No Comments »

Since I’ve been keeping a food journal I’ve noticed a couple of things. First, I seem to crave something sweet after I eat, but it can’t be just any sweet. If I try to eat what I’m not craving - say a banana when I really want a big, chewy cookie - I’ll keep grazing [...]

Happy 1st Day of Spring, everyone!
Did anyone see the moon on the horizon this morning? Wow!
I wanted to take a picture and even had my camera with me in my backpack (How’s that for timely)! …BUT I decided it was better if I paid attention to driving on [...]
