As you all well know, I pack my own food to bring to work every single day. Some days I don’t take photos because I have leftovers that I’ve already shared (or I’m just lazy). Sometimes I take pictures and then forget to post them, and then they pile up on my hard drive. <— I’m pretty sure I’m eerily close to a crash. Power lunching in 5…4…3…2…and go. Breakfast: overnight oats soaked with chia seeds, cinnamon and raisins Snack: Marchini almonds Not as good as regular almonds in my opinion. They… Read more >

I was going to try to do a WIAW post, but I just couldn’t get it together in time. Or photograph everything. Here’s some of my “what I ate wednesday week” in bullet points. Monday Coffee. Duh. My GF loaf is going fast and I still never even showed it’s birth. Sunbeam and Bob’s Red Mill make bread making pretty effortless. Unfortunately due to the garbanzo bean flour, my GI system was not very pleased with the final product. Tasty? Yes. Bloating? Very. It took a bit of trial and error with other… Read more >

Last Friday I skipped my planned run to go to the beach. It wasn’t really set in stone anyway…when I say “planned run”, what I mean is, “exercise session I got dressed for but then immediately changed out of.” I’m not one of those people who pre-sets the week’s fitness plan each Sunday night. Yes, I usually do something each day of the week, but I pretty much figure it out that day, depending how I feel in the moment. I work 3 days a week, so on those days I stick to AM… Read more >

Are you completely confused by the title? Let’s start from the beginning. Kyle and I celebrated us both having a free day off this week (we also kinda made it my faux birthday since Kyle will be in Vegas for the real deal). I made vegan and GF pancakes for me (above), and grits with a fried egg on top for Kyle (below). I added some of Follow Your Heart’s vegan sour cream to it at the end, which offers a tangy, creamy kick. After breakfast (and coffee) I went for a run. … Read more >

Just popping in to let you all know that this week’s galactans challenge is still in full effect. Each day I’ve been testing my digestive system’s limits with a different member of the category – including peas, beans, lentils…and hummus. Oh glorious hummus. [For a list of the others galactan foods check here] I somehow managed to delete the final product of this banana, oat, pumpkin combo. So, yeah. This is all I’ve got. Work eats: salad, Halo s’mores ProBar , Enjoy Life chewy cocoa loco bar. This salad was just your average… Read more >
