Jennifer C commented on Jennifer C's blog post Monday-- Yep, it was a Monday

"Aha-- the mystery of the poor food choice was made clear this morning. Started my period. That makes sense! At least it wasn't french fries. Next month I will be more aware and more prepared. I would have been…"

Greenmama commented on Jennifer C's blog post Monday-- Yep, it was a Monday

"Sounds like you'd really love some clarity about why you make the food choices you make sometimes? I'm wondering if you are a bit frustrated knowing that you will feel so much better if you choose fruit, rather than cookies? If…"

"Aw man! Sorry about the cookies! That's okay --- today is Tuesday. :o) Have you tried to incorporate some more whole fruits into your regimen? That kind of helps me feel more satisfied. Enjoy your hoops!"

Monday-- Yep, it was a Monday

The good news-- 2218 cal. The bad news-- 25% fat-- mostly from cookies. I did really great with eating a nice big breakfast smoothie of bananas and dates (with the ribs from kale thrown in). Ate more dates as snacks. Enjoyed a super yummy green salad with the same tahini-agave dressing as yesterday. Walked the dogs and came home wanting to eat everything in sight. Instead of taking a moment to make another smoothie, I ate cookies. Sigh. Now another three or four days to get that wheat…See More

Jennifer C replied to Nicole Monaghan's discussion Minimalist Footwear and shin splints...

"Hmmm-- I'll have to give them a try. My friends can tell you that I can blister just from being looked at! LOL. It would be AWESOME if these worked for me! "

Jennifer C replied to Nicole Monaghan's discussion Minimalist Footwear and shin splints...

"Thanks-- I'm more worried about the top of my feet, though. My soles are pretty tough, since I spend as much time barefoot as possible-- which is why the skin on top of my feet is so sensitive! "

We suggest you pick a name other than your own if you want to maintain anonymity.: I've been vegan for ethical reasons for six years, and have been considering going raw for a while now, partly because I have a lot of food allergies (though none to any fruits, nuts, or vegetables.) I'm a very slow distance runner who would like to get faster through better nutrition. I'm a nerd, a librarian, and the mom of one human, three dogs, and one cat. I also love skiing and bike-commuting.

Another good day. Calories: 1915, with 14.3% fat. Weight holding around 160. My scales disagree about my bodyfat, but it's somewhere in the 34-37% range. That is actually good, because it means my lean mass is pretty much where I want it to be and I can hopefully lose just fat! The lack of weight gain is promising, since I'm definitely eating about 500+ calories more than I used to. Started craving cooked foods this evening after an hour in the garden, but I ate bananas instead and…

Today was a decent day! The only thing I didn't quite get right was the coffee, but I have a feeling coffee will get less interesting as time goes by. Calorie intake 2153 with 14% fat (1/2 avocado.)

Spent four hours gardening-- mostly cleaning up from my last gardening session (I let the stuff dry before trying to collect it) and weeding the palm bed. Lots more to do tomorrow.

Slept again without help. Not long enough-- stayed up to 2:30 to chat with hubby, then got up at…

Not a perfect day. I got over 2,000 cals, which is good, but a quarter of that was french fries. Made the mistake of going out and about with a cranky teen, and although I did have a lovely 1000 cal banana-date smoothie, it apparently wasn't enough. Need to pack emergency dates.

Came home, did an easy run (base heartrate training) with one of my dogs, walked all three of them, then returned to my beautiful house and enjoyed a huge mixing bowl of butterhead lettuce, grape tomatoes,…

I drink the green smoothies in the am and the salads in the later pm. I am building up on some of the requirements too. I need to eat no salt for awhile, workout more and drink more water. I used to be a Cross Country runner and loved it. Anyway what you do sounds cool. Don't be a stranger, keep in touch. Welcome and Good Luck!
