I very much love my iPad. I’ve already downloaded several books—this may become a problem because I love books, and it’s way too easy to just click them into the palm of my hand. They are cheaper to download than buy though! The case for the iPad can stand up on its own, so when …

I woke up yesterday morning feeling deprived and restricted, which was totally irrational because I hadn’t even started PIP yet…and PIP is not all that restrictive. I immediately wanted to break into Joe’s raisin bread and make toast. With butter. Which I don’t even eat when I’m not doing PIP. I chugged a glass of …

There is a great park near us where you can rent skis (and they have a tow rope). It’s $8 to ski (plus rentals if you need them), and a really awesome place to learn. I’m so glad Joe was into it–he was an extremely patient and helpful teacher. And I just skied around them …
I don’t really have many interesting food experiences this week (lots of green smoothies, kale, and avocados), since I’ve been keeping it simple in preparation for PIP. But last night, we had our Valentine’s dinner since Matthew is going to be here tonight (and he does not see eye to eye with us on food …

Random things for today. 1. I have been getting a lot of emails from my workshop participants who want an electronic copy of the smoothie recipes. So I posted the smoothie workshop recipes in a new page tab (see above). There are also a bunch of other ones if you click on smoothies/juices in the …

Super Power #1: I’m the Idea Queen. I have lots of ideas, often. I’ve been told I don’t follow through on things, but in my habit of upcycling my thoughts and not focusing on the “buts” of my statements… I like to look at it as brainstorming (and I like to brainstorm out loud!). Some …
Today is a snow day in Rochester…and I’m not sure why (aside from the media hype). The storm totally missed us, but I’ll gladly use the extra hours at home to be productive (or blog and tweet!). The past 7 days have been full of soup! There aren’t really any recipes—I just put things together …
First, if you haven’t read this poem yet, you should go do so! Autobiography in 5 Short Chapters (it’s only a tiny short poem, and will open in a new window when you click on it—are you convinced to click yet?!). If you haven’t entered the $25 gift certificate giveaway, go do so here. —————– …
In every wellness or nutrition class I teach, there is always a section about how to interpret and assess health information. This is all about learning how to decide intelligently what you should believe and what you shouldn’t. We delve into why popular media may not be the best foundation for your lifestyle choices, and …
I’ve felt slightly off-track lately with food and fitness. My yoga teacher went to India for a month, so I boycotted yoga. I canceled my gym membership at the million dollar fancy gym (ok, it was only $115 a month…but geez). I had a hip problem, and a hip flexor problem…and a lower back problem. …
