Unlike many healthy living bloggers, I have a 9-5 job that does not exist within the confines of a gym or a home office. This means that I have to prepare breakfast, lunch and dinner based on the hours of my job. Yesterday morning I was lucky enough to have Dave drive me to the …
New Finds
Congratulations everyone, you all made it through Monday and you are one step closer to your 3 day weekend 🙂 I am also patting myself on the back for successfully starting week 2 at my new job and to celebrate I am going to share some of my new finds that are fueling me through …
Running through my mind
Even though I woke up pretty sore Sunday morning, I was determined to run my seven mile goal for the day. So, while catching up on blogs that I have missed over the busy week at work, I ate one of my favorite meals of all time, banana and nut butter (this time it was …
Out for a Walk
After watching a bit of Saturday morning television and a scrumptious breakfast of eggs and toast I not only motivated myself to get to a pilates class, but I also managed to convince Dave to accompany me 🙂 So the two of us got our strength workout in for the day together. We could have …

WIAW at my new job
Now that I am working longer hours and my commute is longer I have to eat strategically. I was able to wake up early enough to get to my gym right at 5:30am to get in a quick 4 mile run before I had to go back to my apartment, gather my things and head …
First Day
Hard to believe that hours ago I was in New Jersey and yesterday was my first day on the job. I was greeted in the reception area with a warm welcome sign and then the day sped by meeting people, acquainting myself with the office and reviewing the employee handbook. This is the last time …
Quick Trip
Somehow it is already Monday morning, the weekend has come and gone and I am embarking on my first, of many weeks, at my new job. I am not quite sure what I am getting myself into, but after a weekend recharging with my family I know I can conquer anything. Even though it was …
