As part of my partnership with Fitfluential I got the opportunity to try some products from Designer Whey. I am super picky when it comes to my protein powders and won’t use anything with fake chemicals etc and had been hesitant to use their powders because they were sweetened with sucralose. Gross. No thanks. But… Continue Reading

Dinner was blackberry chicken, sweet potato fries and… Continue Reading
Level 20
Today I had an all day meeting followed by a work dinner. And I was not jazzed. Great content in the meeting and good people at the dinner but I was annoyed that my lunchtime workout hour was taken up. But I didn’t let that get in my way. I managed to knock out a… Continue Reading
Southwest Chicken Pasta
My workout: 45 min slow job on the treadmill before work Pilates reformer class at lunch Today I was craving some southwest pasta – I feel like there’s this bowl of SW pasta that I’ve had once but can’t remember the name of the place and can’t seem to recreate it. For any of you… Continue Reading
Wine Tasting
First, let me tell you that I have spent the ENTIRE day working on this stupid blog. I bought the Headway Theme template (and found a promo code for it) for about $50 so it felt like a minimal investment. And I thought, “hey, I work in digital. I can figure this out.” Um no. … Continue Reading
Under construction
Perhaps the best time to download a new blog theme was not an hour before you need to go wine tasting…regardless, do not be afraid of my new random blog look. It’s a work in progress that will all (hopefully) come together in the next few days. Please still be my friend.… Continue Reading
Miscellaneous thoughts
Is it weird that I really don’t feel like I have much to say? Normally I talk about recipes or workouts but I didn’t make anything new this week and my workouts were relatively uneventful. Dinners this week included shrimp pasta, thai (out to eat where I got my fave pad thai ever), chicken burritos/burrito… Continue Reading
Bluebird day
Did daylight savings time sneak up on anyone else? Normally I feel like I’m on top of these things and know when I’m going to lose an hour of sleep. Not this time. Blindsided. And now it’s 9:30 and I am not at all tired. Pretty sure bedtime will be later than normal today…Could make… Continue Reading
Dynamic yoga + watching yourself in a group fitness class
Hola, happy Friday. It’s really a Friday night and I’m hanging on the couch after a lame dinner date. The company certainly wasn’t lame but the experience sure was. We went to Laughing Planet which normally treats us right but it was packed! Probably sign #1 that we should have gone someplace else. Then we… Continue Reading
Blog refresh
I really, really, really want a new blog design. When I started this blog I truly was using it as a way to stay in shape and track my workouts but now it’s become just my everyday life which obviously workouts and recipes are mixed into but the current look of my blog doesn’t seem… Continue Reading
