A Separation of Fitness and Food

As I’m reading Intuitive Eating, 3rd Edition cover to cover I’m falling more and more in love with it. Today has been successful with food. I found out my Grandma passed away in the night shortly before 8am. The first thing I wanted to do was eat, but I asked myself if I was hungry … Continue reading

The Cycle of Life and My Resolution.

The Cycle of Life and My Resolution.

It feels like 2013 has barely begun, yet, here I am 2 short days away from 2014 slapping me in the face. 2013 has brought so many ups and downs. So many curve balls. So many tragedies and so many blessings. I sit here wondering what my “Resolutions” will be this year and this is … Continue reading

Making Peace with Food

Making Peace with Food

I’m still reading Intuitive Eating, 3rd Edition and the third principle is : 3. Make Peace with Food – Call a truce, stop the food fight! Give yourself unconditional permission to eat. If you tell yourself that you can’t or shouldn’t have a particular food, it can lead to intense feelings of deprivation that build … Continue reading

Hollywood Recap

Hollywood Recap

Well, I spent my five glorious days in Hollywood. The weather was INCREDIBLE. Here’s my recap! I had a 5:30pm flight out of Atlanta and landed at LAX at 7:30.

Have you ever stopped dieting?

Have you ever stopped dieting?

I don’t know that I have. It’s been that mindset for a very very long time. Guys, I don’t really know what the hell I’m doing, but I do know one thing – I’m over “dieting.” So, in the words of Usher, these are my confessions…   “Oh girl, it’s a lifestyle change. That’s your … Continue reading

When the tough gets going…

I’m trying

I’m trying

I’m trying. God knows I’m trying. I’m trying to find the balance between sanity and insanity; something I most often struggle with. Either I weigh in compulsively or not at all. I haven’t stepped foot onto the scale since my Post Op appointment. Kevin says he is glad I’m not torturing myself, but I can’t … Continue reading

Weekend ReCap

Weekend ReCap

Kevin, Alicia and I ran the Tap N’ Run 4k this week. “Ran” is generous – more like me did a little speed walking. Regardless, it’s beyond fun. The whole idea of the race is to drink and run. Ah-mazing! Here are a few pics! How was everyone else’s weekend? Don’t forget – there’s still … Continue reading

SAY WHAAAA? Shut the front door. Good God Amighty! With Kevin out of town this week I’ve been playing in the kitchen a lot. I was looking through the fridge and found a myriad of leftovers and created this beauty: Y’all – it just wasn’t fair it was so good. Here’s the line up: Real … Continue reading
