Exploring the Dangers of Running

Today’s post is going to be a bit more serious than usual. Diet Blog had an article today called Why Do Healthy Athletes Die of Heart Attacks? This is a topic that’s a bit hard-hitting for me. I’m sure a lot of you in the running community heard about the guy who died at the Chicago Marathon (due to heat stroke, I believe). If you were really watching the news, you would have heard that another runner died the same day during the Army Ten Miler in Washington, DC. That runner was my friend and former co-worker, Mike Banner. I …

Healthy Meal: Grilled Mahi Mahi Fillet and Asparagus with Orange and Sesame

My apartment-guest for the weekend met up with another friend for dinner, which gave me the chance to cook something healthy instead of going out to eat! Hurray. I wanted something as low-cal and healthy as possible after my pizza binge last night (and with another night of drinking planned for tonight). I was thinking of just grilling some fish and pairing it with some broccoli, but instead found this great recipe that’s very similar to that and very simple. Here is my attempt at an elegant presentation, though it’s nowhere near as cool as the official picture on the …

Nutrition and Alcohol (Yes, I put those two words in the same title)

So, I broke my own advice and opened another tab last night. Bad, bad, bad. This bar had Woodchuck Cider, which is one of my favorites, but was on tap – so I got pint glasses (16 oz) instead of bottles (12 oz). As we all know thanks to Mindless Eating (if you haven’t read it, you MUST – I will post a review in the upcoming days that explains more), bigger serving sizes meant I drank more. A lot more. And to top it all off, this bar gave out free pizza with every drink. These were personal pizzas, …

An Original Diet Tip for Drinking

You would think that having just started this blog a few days ago, I’d have plenty to post about and wouldn’t yet start missing updates. Unfortunately, you would be wrong. Yesterday was a busy day and I just didn’t get around to posting during the day. I planned to make up for it at night by posting an awesome dinner. We’re talking gourmet here, people. I invited my friend Barry over with promises of deliciousness, and I even stopped at Whole Foods on the way home and bought all kinds of special ingredients. We made plans to meet up at …

Healthy Meal: Black Bean Soup

This is one of my favorite recipes, and today I made it in record time! Fourteen minutes to chop the veggies and put everything in the pot, then I did the 20 minute arms segment of “Tank Top Arms, Bikini Belly, Boy Shorts Bottom” while it cooked. Easy, easy, easy! I was a little concerned when I came back, because it was much redder than usual, but I realized I usually do two cans of black beans instead of one (the recipe calls for three, but I cut it in half, and I usually don’t like to save half a …
