Giveaway: EatSmart Precision CalPal Scale

EatSmart_PrecisioN_CalPal_Scale

This week has been full of bad news – first all the pipes burst in my townhouse in upstate New York, causing major flooding, and then I got word that my grandmother passed away 🙁 So forgive me for not yet writing up my New Year’s resolutions – hopefully I’ll get to that next week. In the meantime, I wanted to share about a new scale that can help you stay on track with your healthy eating goals for 2018. The EatSmart Precision CalPal Scale not only shows your weight on an easy to read blue LCD screen, but also …

June Goal Progress: Week 4 Check In

Laura_At_Pizza_And_Pints

It’s the final week of my no-sugar month, and I am so excited. There have been enough temptations in the last week that I have seriously considered cheating just this once and having a cookie (or whatever). But I stuck with it, didn’t cheat, and I’m pretty proud of myself for that. And, it will make dessert taste all that much sweeter come Friday! Not really too much to report this week that’s different than last week, though. I think what I’ve learned most from this challenge is not really about sugar, per se, but more about how much easier a …

June Goal Progress: Week 3 Check In

So what is the hardest part of no-sugar month? The darn heat wave that’s taken over most of the country! Despite the altitude, Colorado was unfortunately not spared the heat. It was in the high 90s all weekend – hot enough to where I started questioning why I had moved there instead of clear up to Canada. And then all I possibly wanted to eat was ice cream and smoothies and other frozen sweet things that I couldn’t have because of my sugar-free month. If you know a savory smoothie or popsicle recipe, please let me know. I refrained from making chicken …

June Challenge: Sub-25 Grams of Sugar

Where on earth did May go? I know I still owe you a recap of my May no-complaining challenge, and also a race recap (I ran the Bolder Boulder on Monday!), but for now, I wanted to provide a quick update on my June challenge. In choosing my June challenge, I considered trying something like the super trendy Whole 30 diet that so many bloggers seem to be doing. However, the restrictiveness of Whole 30 seems to mean that your best chance of success is if you cook more – which I just can’t do four days a week when I’m …

TGI Flyday – and Cheers to a New Beginning!

Funday_Fooze

In most of my consulting work where I’ve had to travel, the typical schedule is that you’re on site Monday through Thursday. Although we work from home (or in our local office) on Fridays, the fact that we actually get to go home and sleep in our own beds is always cause of celebration, so people will sometimes refer to Thursday as “consulting Friday”. My preferred Thursday catchphrase, though, is “TGI Flyday!” It’s been both a year since I’ve been traveling regularly for work, and also a year since I’ve been working with this particular client… and I have to …
