Heart
Like, beef hearts. To grill and eat. In looking into Primal/Paleo ways of eating, the concept of “offal” has come up a few times. I don’t enjoy liver the few times I’ve had it, but there has been a suggestion to cut it with ground beef, which I will try next time I make beef [...]
Hi Everybody!
Um, hi. I know it’s been a while, but when I want to talk about healthy eating, this is the best place to do so. I’ve been thinking about food and ways of eating. My partner has been on the slow carb diet (a la Tim Ferriss) for about six months, and has lost about [...]
Updates-LHAS ending
“Weight Loss” and activity are interesting propositions. Whenever I am in Manhattan, I can walk a few miles and be fine. There is a lot of interesting stuff to see, and it is really fun. Walking in my area? Not so fun. Thus, I found that not having the unlimited metrocard, along with not having [...]
Activity Update- LHAS
The more time I spend in neighborhoods, the more walking I do. Spending two hours walking around Manhattan is a lot of fun, but somehow walking to the subway, which is two blocks from my apartment, is not fun. Still, I do take time to take extra steps while in the city. Two days this [...]
LHAS
The Long Hot Active Summer Challenge. No one told me it would be 100 degrees! Blah blah blah. I was pretty lazy this week, and didnt do much of anything. I plan on shopping tomorrow, which means lots of walking. I also plan on Walking on my Birthday, which is Friday (July 9), and I [...]
Heat
Currently, it is 102 in Central Park. It is 95 degrees in the living room of my apartment. (I live in a Railroad style apartment, with a bedroom on either side of the apartment, and the living room/kitchen in the middle, and the middle has no air flow or windows) It is 83 in my [...]
No Sweets Recap – LHAS
Time slips away :) From having friends over to two days at the Fancy Food Show, where did this weekend go? To recap on my no artificial sweets week: I ended up losing about 4 pounds, and I was not hungry. I noticed that after I added in the artificial sweeteners, I was more hungry. [...]
No Sweets Edition: LHAS
I did three days of city walking, and assorted smaller walks. 260 minutes of exercise. I need to start the Cardio Boxing thing again, but it is 90+ degrees in the apartment. At least outside I have a breeze. I slightly cheated on the No Sugar day today (oops!) I went to the farmers market, [...]
Drinks: Aqua Fresca
So far today, I have eaten a quesadilla (on plain flour tortillas, after I found the whole wheat ones had sucralose), sauteed garlic green beans, grilled chicken, coffee, and tea. I will probably have popcorn in a few. I do not like plain water. If I can find a way to change it up a [...]
30 Minutes In
After just 30 minutes of “no artificial sweeteners,” I realize that I eat a whole lot of “healthy” things that I have a very long ingredient list. Things to keep in mind.
