  • Gluten Free Eating makes a Difference!

    Morning Everyone! It’s my rest day and don’t think for one minute that I am not happy to see it. I would rather sleep in every morning but I don’t. Period! Last night I was hungry! I made pan grilled chicken with sauteed onions, peppers, mushrooms and then made some quick guacamole with scallions, cilantro,…

  • Eating Paleo in a Non-Paleo World

    Eating Paleo in a Non-Paleo World. This is a great recap of eating Paleo and living your life being conscience of what you eat.  It is easier to just go through life not paying attention but that’s how you end up with health and weight issues. Plain and simple… Once you start eating a Paleo…

  • Workout to start your week

    Plumbline boot camp was the same routine we did last Thursday — and it was hard, challenging and I did not finish. I managed to complete half of Round 6 when time was called and it was already past camp time – so I stopped there. I still burned more calories than I have in…

  • Report: Fast-Food Chains Increase Targeting of Kids

    Report: Fast-Food Chains Increase Targeting of Kids. I guess when the marketers said they would step up their efforts to improve marketing to kids that it meant something different than what we all would have liked it to mean. Improvements in the efficacy and frequency they market is apparently what they meant! I am not…

  • Workout & Paleo Update

    Outside workout on a cold morning — you know it’s not as bad as it seems. It really does feel pretty good within a few minutes of starting the workout and by the time you are done, you have those chills that you get when you are all sweaty but it’s freezing outside. Oh the…
