I had a great birthday party last night! I feel so blessed to be surrounded by so many dear friends. Here are some pictures from the party last night:
You can see my Macadamia/White Chocolate/Strawberry Cheezecake on the right, and the regular cake on the left. I even had decidedly non-health-nut people coming up to me [...]
Hi Everybody! Sorry so long between posts. We had a wonderful trip to Georgia to visit my family for my niece’s birthday (and mine too–more on that in a minute). My parents don’t have a computer, and although I did get to use my sister’s computer briefly I had no time to put together a [...]
Sorry I missed yesterday. When I dragged myself in the house last night, I could barely hold my eyes open. I had to crash. I didn’t even stay on Crack-book–I mean Face Book–for very long. That is the most addictive thing I have encountered in a long time. It has been incredible reconnecting with people [...]

Stay true to your dreams. Persevere toward your goals. Being healthy in a SAD, SAD world isn’t always [...]
Sorry I missed posting yesterday. I have to catch up today, and it’s already after 11pm. Too much to do, and too little time to do it! Things are going very well, and I am really excited about my progress toward getting ready for my competition, and also my Living Foods Prep Class I will [...]
I don’t know how much you care about football, but I absolutely love it. I am much more into college football, because I love the pageantry, emotion and fun of the college game. Those are unpaid kids getting out there and playing their hearts out for a mythical national championship, which if they win, they [...]
Wow! I am pretty proud of myself. I just completed a full 24-hour fast, in preparation for a detoxing cleanse that I am doing this week. The seven-day detox is on a website I really love called the Raw Divas. The link to the cleanse is: Seven Day Detox. It’s free, with tons of support, [...]
Today was long but a good day, overall. Unfortunately, there was some bad news. One of my friends passed away today. It wasn’t a shock. He had bile duct cancer but actually died from the treatment of it. The cancer was gone but the chemotherapy destroyed his liver and he died waiting on a transplant. [...]
Just a quick post tonight. I was planning to rest from working out today, but I just couldn’t sit still. I did intervals on the bike–1 minute hard and fast, and two minutes recovery–for about 20 minutes. Then I went into pushups and abs. I found a workout online where you do 10 or 11 [...]
Well, we are three days in to the New Year. So far it has been great! I have been working on my Revolutions, and working my tail end off at the Living Well Cafe. The resolution crowd has definitely already started to kick in at the gym. I was much, much busier than the past [...]
