Good Afternoon Everyone!
Wow its been forever since I have logged in yet alone posted a story!
I am starting my eat clean diet journey again with a goal weight of 145lbs. BUT...I am not setting a time limit on it as I don't want to stress myself out like I have done in the past.
I am wondering if anyone has the recipe for the the Dark Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Flax cookies?! I have misplaced my copy.
Also does anyone have any suggestions for fruit smoothies in the morning that do not have protein/whey powder in it?
I am going to try to log in three times a week to keep everyone updated.
ALSO I have a business trip to Portland, Oregon coming up on October 10th. I would like some suggestions as to what to eat while I am there because I will be in conferences from 8am until 10pm and probably not back to my hotel room until 1-2am as I will have a follow up meetings after! Its a busy weekend but its so worth it and I want to make my eating worth it while I am there and do not want to stuff my face with fast food.
Everyone's input is much appreciated!
<3 Dal

It's time to change up my profile photo...fall cleaning! Note to my fellow Canadian table buddies...this is a guitar that is constructed of pieces of Canadian history. It is called the voyageur! It's beautiful and I hope each of you get to play it or at the very least hold it someday.

Stop waiting. The perfect time is now.

Three weeks from today, I'm doing my first half-marathon.
Lordy.
I honour of the Amanda who will be doing it, I've today begun The Love Fest: Each Day Is a Fresh New Day.
What am I talking about? Well, it's 3 weeks of single days. Single days where I focus on just that day, and eat well, keep active, and exercise, just for that day. It's also 3 weeks of days when I do things that make me happy--wherever I am on that single day.
So, for today I slept in; made spicy shrimp and squash roti, one of my favourite and coincidentally easiest dishes to make; and watched a number of episodes of Dr. Who. :) And right now I'm writing this post, and listening to the rain.
Tomorrow? Well, I know I have to work tomorrow, but other than that, since tomorrow doesn't exist yet, and today is my current focus, I have no idea!

Hi all- still going on my 6 week challenge. My workout is done for this morning. I got in just over 3 miles on the treadmill and do see improvement. Yesterday was a good weight day and I am feeling it today. I have been able to workout Monday through Friday doing weights, treadmill and either Insanity or Turbo Fire . Saturday is rest day and Sunday I have a riding lessong. You need to feel strong to ride the horse also. It really helps. Packing up my food and trying to make good choices. Boiling up some fresh eggs from my chickens now. I will have one as a snack with some almonds today. Also, remember to drink lots and lots of water.
I have been watching T-25 from Shawn T on tv and really thinking of trying. Has anyone done it yet ? If so what did you think and did you see results ?
Have a great day all ! Oh, yeah it's my anniversary tonight. I am going out to dinner and with a gift certificate. The restaurant has lots of good options like fish , veggies etc so I think I am okay.

Introduction :)

Hi everyone,
I have been away for a bit, admittedly because I was doing very badly eating clean, and I have all but stopped exercising. The stress and craziness of moving set me way back with everything and a guilty conscience kept me away. I am back though, and feeling great. I have figured out a schedule for myself, and I am down 10 pounds since my weight at Christmas, and nearly 25 since my heaviest weight. I tried to sign up for a gym, but remembered I am broke, so it's back to square one when it comes to an exercise plan. I hope I will figure something out.

Having belief can change so many things for you.

Well today I turn 49. Over the years there was the odd year that kind of felt OMG. At 25 I was in the hospital having just had my first baby and felt the first Yikes birthday moment. The thirties flew bye with the rat race of life...super mom/business woman/wife/daughter...who had time to notice another birthday I was just trying to get it all done! "40" hit hard...I lost myself. I was at a personal low...heavy, sad, overwhelmed! My kids were great...my customers happy...my marriage strong...family supportive. I had worked on everything and everyone but forgot to work on "me". I have changed that. I am happy and proud of how I take care of myself therefore I take better care of my family. I've booked myself a birthday massage and have a light day of work ahead. Clean food planned because it is my day and I can't think of a better way to spoil me that with amazing fresh high quality food. The house will be filled with the smell of a chicken roasting for meals for the rest of the week. I have pork ribs, asparagus, spinach salad for supper...no cake no need. I had cake for my son's birthday last Saturday. I'm not crazy about the number 49 but hey it's not 50 ;) it's my day and I will look forward to the calls from family and take in what ever this tue has for me.
