My mom comes into town tomorrow night. Curt is heading to Missouri for a high school reunion. So I invited my mom out here for a girls’ weekend. I haven’t decided yet whether the time she is here I will be counting points and tracking my food. I am gonna just go with the flow. [...]

I had three lunch dates this week and one dinner date. That’s a lot of eating out for me, especially during the week. On Tuesday I had lunch with my friend/co-worker Melissa. We had sushi. Delicious, filling and healthy. I love sushi. Yesterday I had lunch with my friend/co-worker Stephanie. We had pho (pronounced fuh, [...]

Last night I experimented with portobello mushrooms, avocados, soyrizo and a few other ingredients. My friend James recently told me about an experiment he made in the kitchen and it sounded delicious. I tried to remember everything he told me and changed mine up a little as well. I took two portobello mushrooms and placed them [...]

I was not happy to go to work today. I am not quite sure why. Maybe it was Monday. Maybe because the past few days I slept in rather late for me. But I had quite the attitude today. A little after 4 p.m. I wandered down to the area where we wait for the [...]

Every day gets a little easier with my Joey gone. When I am sad or depressed or even stressed I turn to food and alcohol. It’s not the healthiest option. But there are much unhealthier choices. I took yesterday off from work. I just took it easy. I lounged around and watched movies. Eventually I [...]

I am desperately trying to get back to a healthier food routine. The first issue was that I hadn’t been to the grocery in sometime. I went on Saturday. I also hadn’t been regularly buying some of the basics. I made sure to include those on the list. I hadn’t taken the time to prepare [...]

The commute on the shuttle bus from South San Francisco took more than an hour. Traffic was bad, likely because of the Giants baseball game. I didn’t get home until about 5:50, just 10 minutes before my regular Wednesday night yoga class. When we were sitting in traffic I made up my mind that I [...]

I was planning on doing a post on Bikram Yoga. But I have been busy tonight and it is almost 9:30, which is sadly about my bedtime. I get up at 5 during the week so I like to try to be in bed by 9:30 and be asleep by 10. But just for you, [...]
