I was reading just recently in a magazine article about eating clean, and the article suggested I put honey in my protein shake. I wasn’t sure why I would want to do that, since my shake was already sweet enough. There had to be a reason for adding the sweetness. Plus I started thinking if [...]

I’ve been reading up on dieting, not fad dieting, but eating healthy, and it seems that the new terminology being used is eating clean. So I thought I would give it a try. I already have a pretty good diet, with the exception of the last three months, so I’m thinking this shouldn’t be too [...]

Who would want to eat that? I was just recently reading an article on the “a Calorie Counter” website called Fast Food Restaurants & Nutrition Facts Compared. I don’t eat much fast food, and if I do it’s mostly Subway and Jamba Juice. But I was surfing so I thought I’d check out this list. [...]

Week 9 was a so-so week. I did much better on my first trip than I did on this one. I didn’t get to do any spins on the trip, but I did one before I left on Monday. On Tuesday I ran, Wednesday I did the elliptical trainer and light [...]

Yep. Silly me. I was on the treadmill again today. Of course I ran, but I had to slow down to a walk to take the picture, and it was still blurry. Nothing new and exciting to write today, my last day in Seattle. I only had about 30 minutes to workout this morning because [...]

I didn’t keep my diet journal this week for obvious reasons, but I still managed to snap a picture of what I ate most of the week. I did have a few more apples than the one shown and a few bananas thanks to our Bed & Breakfast hosts who provided fresh baked goods every [...]

One month down, and only 2 months left. For me, that means now I have to try to lose more than 1 lb a week since I’ve lost none thus far, although I’m really getting in pretty good shape. On my long ride yesterday, I was able to shave 11 minutes off my time for [...]

Jo Novelli over on the Foothills Revolution Spin blog has been posting her Missy-ism, or saying that her spin instructor says during class. I haven’t attended one of Missy’s classes in a while, but I happen to get a couple of the same instructors each week. There’s Rock ‘n Roll David on Monday mornings and [...]

I’ve got to run more. I just know it. I just can’t motivate myself to do it though. It’s so hard, and I have a serious mind block about doing something I used to be so good at, but now I suck at. I just know that if I can run some distance, I can [...]
