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 [...]
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 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, [...]
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.
Weekly Updates
Didnt do so well this week. Though, I had about two hours of walking one day (to find cupcakes, and I had to ask them to get the cupcakes out of the freezer!) So, about 240 minutes of walking. (Low intensity). Next week, Monday to Friday, is my “no artificial sweetener” week. If my grandmother [...]
Fat is not a bad word
I wrote this as a comment to a post on FitBottomedGirls.com. (She) said “When I see the word “fat,” I think “hate” or “ugly” or, even, “not good enough.” In my mind, if you call yourself fat, you’re hating on yourself and not honoring the person you are inside and out.” I am fat. Fat [...]
Sleep
I seriously need to get back on a more normal sleep schedule. I have been going to bed around 5-7am. Waking up (if I dont set the alarm) between 2 and 5pm. The days that I do have to set my alarm and get up early, it takes me about an hour to wake up, [...]
