Breakfast

I'm not sure if any of you are like me, but I struggle sometimes with getting in a 'breakfast slump.' I tend to have the same things A LOT, and that gets boring. And we all know that getting bored is the first step in making less healthy choices or 'falling off the wagon.'

This week I have been having a sort of deconstructed omelette for breakfast, because I am trying to get more veggies into my morning routine. I have been taking about a half cup of spinach, putting an egg directly over it, putting a touch of salt and pepper and microwaving it for 1 minute. I put it on a piece of bread or a mini bagel with just a touch of cheese and it is so super delicious! And fast, which makes life easier for everyone.

Try it out, I promise you won't be disappointed.

Have a happy and healthy Friday everyone!

A glimpse into my world

This week has been an interesting one for me. I finished a workout program which kicked my booty and transformed my body, simultaneously reaching my ‘preferred weight,’ (which is slightly lower than my WW goal weight but still solidly in the ‘healthy’ range for someone of my stature. Hooray, right? Well. Sort of. Everyone who has ever lost any amount of weight or made healthy habits can speak to the fact that it’s not necessarily getting there that’s complicated or laborious, but instead the STAYING there. That’s me this week. I’m in the process of switching from ‘losing mode’ to ‘maintenance mode,’ and figuring out what that needs to look like with what and how much I am eating, and balancing it with my activity level. It’s exciting, certainly.  But also a huge learning process! I’m thankful for a network of people to reach out to, WW connect really is the bomb!! I have never  maintained my goal (the number given by my doc or otherwise).  In fact I hit it once back i...

Blessings for the Soul

I am continually impressed that some weekends in my life can be so completely renewing and nourishing for my soul.  This weekend was especially so! It started out with new relationship building and continued throughout the weekend. It's exciting, but most importantly, it's calming. "It feels like coming home'" was said more than once this weekend. We get caught up in things having to be 'roller coaster exciting' when in all actuality it is fun having those moments, but the quality life things matter so much more. The day to day important things that aren't 'roller coaster exciting' that are equally as exciting in their own way are where it's at. And sometimes all of that comes at a time when you had no idea it would. So to be surprised, excited and blessed by one person is AMAZING. Continuing down the soul enriching path was newborn baby snuggles. There is NOTHING like brand new life to make you live in the moment. I dare say there are ...
