Vacation eating

So, regarding our vacation, we are going to be gone to Disney World for 6 days. Ish asked a question that I figured other people might have as well about eating while on vacation. Out of curiosity, how do you handle the urge to splurge on food when you are traveling? Do you get hit [...]

Bench press tips and football dinner!

Off to the gym this morning. There was frost on the car! I was at the gym a little later than normal by 7:30.  There were only a hand full of people there.  I am liking that a lot.  And nobody really annoying either – bonus! Exercise Set/rep/weight Muscle worked Barbell Chest Press 3 sets [...]

Anniversary Dinner – Bistro Leroux

Thank you all so, so much for the anniversary wishes! We don’t exchange gifts, but we did go out to a nice dinner last night and then since this is a special anniversary (15), we are going to do a champagne brunch cruise on Lake George this weekend. Anyway, I thought I would show you [...]

Crepe-ing around

Hello blogosphere from busy-ville   I slept good last night, so no ill effect from reintroducing caffeine. although I did wake up early, but I think that was due to my sleep mask falling off during the night.  Since I was up early, I went out for a nice bike ride.  Streets are somewhat quiet [...]

Throwdown at Golden Corral

Happy Birthday to my dad!  He is the same age and has the same birthday as Bob Dylan.    His choice to eat out for dinner is Golden Corral. He loves that place. But first, there was my day.  We are in the midst of a long rain spell right now.  That means no outdoor [...]

Weekend roundup with Mediterranean food!

Had such a lovely relaxing breakfast at Panera Bread today. [...]

Paying the football piper

It was a dark and early morning when I got up to run.  Am I the only one that forgets that it is a new year?  Guess when you stick to the same schedule it will feel that way.  Definitely not running outside!  I snagged a Vanilla Almond Luna bar as a pre-run snack. Gym [...]

Running breakthrough and monthly wrap up.

I made it through yesterday!  I had one more date last night because I was hungry, but fine otherwise.  I don’t know how people who weigh more than I do eat less food than 1500 calories.   Maybe I will just need to get used to it again.  It’s been so long in maintenance where I [...]

Going to Moe’s

This morning was one of those where I was so snuggly that I did not want to get out of bed.  I love that feeling!  I decided on no morning workout today as I ponder what I will be doing.  Very off the cuff.   I knew what I wanted for breakfast, though!  Protein waffles. These [...]
