You guys are so sweet for sending me happy-sleepy-time thoughts…I wish I could say it worked :( After my seriously deficient shut-eye on Monday night, I was SO optimistic about getting to sleep extra early…I was all tucked in by 10 pm, ready to snooze the night away. With my alarm set for 5 am, I thought 7 hours would be decent enough to get me through my first day back at work. Talk about wishful thinking!! I fell right asleep, only to wake up at 11:00 confused as all hell. Only an HOUR passed!?! Grrrr… … Read more >

Wanna see how my Maui meals have been going…well, I have about 4.7% of my eats captured on film, so I’ll let you be the judge of that. We eat at restaurants more often than not, so I am in serious need of a detox. Processed foods have been in abundance, despite my best attempts to minimize them. And even with mega planning ahead of time, vegan options tend to be poor at best. One of the things I realized here is how unavoidable processed foods is. Sad :( Even with my organic-loving, health-conscious, family,… Read more >

**I’m not sure why, but I’m having tech related issues…update your google reader feeds to http://hungryhungryhippie.com/feed/ If you know what the title of this post means, I’m sorry. Ha Ha. But that’s what I felt like (again) today. I had 4 meals (not snacks, meals) AFTER dinner alone. OK, so back to the beginning… Hump day started off with an early morning wake up call. Someone’s gotta save lives. To get me going, I went with a Trilogy Kombucha. This is my FAVE flavor by far. Mmmm… I had packed my lunch before, but it… Read more >

I have no clue why, but my appetite was out of control today. It was as if I ran a marathon and couldn’t seem to get in enough kcals to replenish. The only problem: I didn’t run a marathon. In fact, I didn’t exercise Sat or Sun because I worked (12 hour shifts are not conducive to gym-ing). I never really pay attention to balancing calories on days I exercise, even if I have really intensely active days, because typically my body tells me what to do. If my tummy wants more, I give it… Read more >

I love summer Fridays because Kyle has half days…that said, it’s useless when the weather is this crappy. Nothing but gray skies and pitter patter all day long. Boo hoo. Coffee – check! Kyle was a little noisy this morning, so I was up early (read: too early)…which is why coffee was froth-ified and breakfast was on the GRANDE side (as far as AM eating goes). I was craving fruit in a may-jerrrrrr way, so in addition to the plate heaped with pineapple, watermelon, strawberries, and grapes, I had a blueberry Chobz with raisins. Hit.the.spot…. Read more >
