#WIAW: A Day in Life w/a Meal Delivery Service

February 18, 2015

I was so happy to finally get the scale moving in the right direction when I did Laura’s 21-Day Reset back in September. Through the holidays though, I managed to gain back all 6 of those hard fought pounds. Not running nearly as much, habitual, mindless snacking, plus holiday indulgences are to blame. I’ve enjoyed [Read More]

WIAW: Grain Brain Edition

October 30, 2013

I dove into the Grain Brain Challenge on Sunday with the prescribed 24-hr. fast. Just plenty of water for me. Here’s how the first day of Grain Brain eats went: Because my fast started and ended midday, my first official meal was lunch: Homemade 3-bean turkey chili leftover from our Halloween party. Mid afternoon was tough. [Read More]

WIAW: Alaskan Culinary Highlights

August 21, 2013

We are back to school today. Yet another summer has slipped away. It’s not all bad though, I have my memories of our Alaskan adventure to cling to. Many of you have asked how we arranged our trip. Easy really since it was a cruise. After a couple of days touring Seattle, we boarded the [Read More]

WIAW: #Sugardetox Edition

April 3, 2013

Today is day 3 of Laura at Mommy Run Fast’s 7-day sugar detox challenge. The week is young, but I am hanging in there. Although this is by no means my maiden voyage into sugar depletion, I am learning things about myself. When I get highly annoyed, I tend to want to let my diet [Read More]

WIAW: Post Vacation Edition

April 4, 2012

It’s time once again for What I Ate Wednesday, compliments of Peas and Crayons. It’s also time for me to face the dragon and get my post-cruise carcass back on the scale. Let’s just say I more than made up for any carb depletion I was experiencing before I left. Here’s how yesterday’s, back-to-the grind [Read More]

Pi Day Randoms

March 14, 2012

I am smitten with these shoes. They are my beloved Mizunos but a different model. I usually wear Wave Creations, Wave Precisions and sometimes Wave Riders. How can I resist this color? Face it, I can’t. My half marathon is this weekend. All of my runs post-flu have been weak, winded and with cough, I [Read More]

What I Ate/Weigh-In Wednesday

March 7, 2012

Thank you all for the get well wishes! Thankfully the fever has broken, the aches/pains/chills are gone, there’s still considerable chestular gunk but overall I am feeling worlds better and will attempt a very easy run today. In honor of WIAW, here’s  my day in food: The day started with some green tea. Breakfast was [Read More]

What I Ate/Weigh-In Wednesday

December 7, 2011

No earth shattering weight loss to report but things are moving slowly, in the right direction.  Pre-run breakfast: The good ole banana with almond butter, with 1/2 a cup of coffee and lots of water. Apres run: Protein Recovery Shake: coconut milk, frozen mixed berries, Collagen Sport Protein Powder, spinach, splash of orange juice. Afternoon [Read More]

What I Ate/Weigh-In Wednesday

November 30, 2011

I started the day in my usual way: 1/2 a Think Thin bar with 1/2 a cup of coffee with a pinch of Stevia. Oh and a big glass of water. Morning snack was a banana w/almond butter and more water. Lunch was a big honkin’ salad: spinach/romaine, tomatoes, cucumber, red peppers, nuts, berries, seeds, [Read More]

marciashealthyslice I'm a working mom who, as part of a mid-life challenge, decided to run a marathon for kicks. I didn't plan on it becoming a hobby, but it did. I qualified for Boston at my second marathon and finished the 6 World Marathon Majors in London in 2019. Set no small goals. You never know what you're capable of until you try!
