I almost forgot what day it was, but thankfully I snabbed a pic of my pancake to post for today's third installment of What I Ate Wednesday. Tuesday's pancake included 1/4 cup of egg whites, 2 scoops of PB2 and half of a banana. This was a bit of an experiment and it actually came …

Healthy living on the job
I spend my days working in an office in downtown San Francisco, sitting 8 hours a day in front of a computer screen and on the phone. While I enjoy my job and the people I am serving in the community, I do not enjoy the minimal movement and the many food temptations. Everyday I …
only for a moment
The rain finally stopped Sunday morning and it would have been a cold, but refreshing day for a run. I let myself be sad for one second and then embraced the fact the pain in my lower back has gotten very minimal and pumped myself up for a hardcore pilates class. Sunday's instructor was a …
PB2 on WIAW2
It's that time of the week again and time for my seconde WIAW 🙂 And for this post I am premiering PB2! This magnificent ingredient is simply peanut butter minus the oil (in powder form) and can be easily used in smoothies, reconstituted with water or in hot cereal, like the 9 grain cereal I …
Early start to Friday
Because running is out of the picture (hopefully for not too much longer) I have decided to dedicate my workouts to pilates. In addition to home workouts focused on abs and arms I signed up for 10 pilates classes at a studio located a block from my apartment. I've already been to a few classes …

I found new energy after an hour or two on the couch and put some effort into completing another home work out. Thanks to my Greatist daily emails …

9-grains of deliciousness
Instead of using old fashioned oats for my hot cereal I decided to shake things up a bit and get wild and crazy with a 9-grain cereal mix. I cooked it the same way I would regular oats, 1/4 cup of cereal, 1/2 cup of almond milk, sliced banana, and I topped it off with …
Pudding cup!
If there ever was a day to enjoy a pudding cup, monday was the day. I loved vanilla pudding as a kid and when I saw these in Whole Foods the other day I couldn't resist. Already by lunch I needed a pick me up and while a beach-side vacation would have been ideal, I …
