I think most of us indulge a bit over vacation. Overall, I feel like a did better than vacations in the past and really tried to listen to my body and feed it what (and in the appropriate amount) it was telling me instead of eating too much cheese on the cheese tray because it was too [...]

I am ready for vacation ! Wrapping up everything at work before you go away is always a bit stressful and I find I can push myself too much trying to get it all done. Work is busy plus packing, leaving the house clean (hate coming home to a dirty house), laundry, and I like to workout [...]

I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend . I had a busy Saturday with work and classes (a 1 hour kick-your-butt bootcamp class then 30 minutes of yoga before I taught my nutrition class at Qi) then I rushed off to meet Will to go camping. Camping is the best because it forces you to slow down and [...]
