Call me crazy. Go ahead, but man I feel great! Two boot camps, a weight training session and I climbed the wall, twice (once alone and then again after the toddler asked if he could watch.)
The real wacky part of this… I LOVED every minute of it! I’m really starting to subscribe to a "body in motion tends to stay in motion" mind set. The more I move the more I want to move! It actually kind of makes sense. When I was at rest I tended to stay a rest, now didn’t I?
Anyway, now I need SLEEP!

What's Cooking in my kitchen?

Finally my first Farro idea! I have to say, I love this stuff! It's chewy and yummy and, well, fun! I tossed it with what I could find in my pantry and it made a wonderfully satisfying lunch. Filling but not heavy, tasty and quite nutrient dense. According to NutritionData.com this [...] -
I've seen it mentioned in a few of my clean eating and healthy cook books but honestly, I never even thought of Farro as an option for me. I refuse to shop at specialty stores and I try to use only common products that I can keep in stock and purchase from a typical grocery [...] -
I've never had a tuna melt. Is that weird? I guess that's what happens when you grow up not liking mayonnaise. I never ate tuna salad or egg salad or chicken salad. Honestly, they always kind of grossed me out. Then I realized.. hey.. why does tuna salad have [...] -
I have no idea where this idea came from. I was hungry. It was lunch. I had Brussels Sprouts. That was all the catalyst I needed.:) I decided to use a slice of real bacon to add flavor and little fat that would help sauté the sprouts. I'm trying [...] -
WOW was this good. I mean seriously good. It's not vegetarian so don't start throwing stones. I'm calling it a Garden Vegetable Burger because I use the new Laughing Cow Smooth Sensations Garden Vegetable Cream Cheese Spread. It was this recipe on Allrecipes.com that inspired [...] -
I drink water 99.9% of the time but every so often it just doesn't cut it. I want something else. Something more. Something slightly sweet. Today was one of those days. I decided to make a refreshing drink based on the famous Arnold Palmer, half lemonade and half iced [...] -
The other day I made a whole chicken on the grill in pieces. It was delicious! Just a little BBQ sauce and an open flame is all I need to make The Husband happy in the dinner department. I also picked up a few ears of corn from the grocery store. They aren't in season [...] -
Let me explain so you don't think I'm making a chili recipe and just put it on pizza. I'm calling this vegetarian Chili Pizza because chili is what inspired flavors. I think I told you. Little Bean is really into, well, BEANS! We go through a can about every 2 days. Yesterday [...] -
I've confessed my inability to follow recipes here on GreenLiteBites many, many times. I don't know why it's so hard for me. I can barely follow some of my own and I wrote the darn things! I think most of my problem stems from not having all the ingredients listed and, [...] -
Leftover brown rice and leftover sauce meet in this quick lunch idea inspired by my favorite food of all time: Pizza. I swear I can turn anything into a pizza concoction. Have you seen all my pizza ideas? I've used everything from pumpkin to zucchini, polenta to wontons. Nothing is off [...] -
This isn't a recipe just an idea I had to share. I can't believe how good it was! I've never had grilled pineapple. Can you believe it? I just never really had the desire to grill it before. When you love something raw sometimes it doesn't occur to you to cook it. [...] -
I whipped this up for lunch on a whim today because, well, I have a baby who's obsessed with three things… Cheese, Beans, and Avocado. No, really. Look... It's my go to meal for him so I find myself with beans and avocado readily available. [...] -
You know that tradition 7 Layer Mexican Dip? The one with the cream cheese, guacamole, salsa, lettuce, cheese, green onion and olives? Yea. That's the one. Well I had a craving for it the other day. Well, not exactly for it as I can never make anything the way it's suppose [...] -
If you go through the archives of GreenLiteBites I have about 5 total beef recipes. Five. Compare that to the 80+ I have tagged with chicken/turkey there's a clear winner in the meat department on my blog and in my home. I don't have a beef with beef (omg The Husband [...] -
I'm a kitchen sink smoothie maker. Whatever I have on hand goes in the blender and viola! A quick breakfast or a healthy snack. Last year I posted an "Elastic Approach" to how I make smoothies but I still like to share specific combinations that worked really well. This was one [...] -
The other night it was just the kids and I home for dinner and I decided to make what I wanted to make no holds barred. Without The Husband home it's much easier for some reason. Hmmm wonder why? Ok, not here to husband bash.. really.. I'm not! I'm here [...] -
*sigh* I was really hoping to share an awesome turkey burger idea. I had grand plans for my leftover ground turkey. The results was alright but they could have been so much better. I added diced pineapple, red pepper, green pepper, oats and soy sauce to the meat and formed 2 patties. In hindsight I [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday having no idea if it would work. To my surprise it did AND the husband actually said he liked it... UNSOLICITED! Here's the story. I had only 4 tilapia fillets defrosted for dinner. I knew it wasn't going to be enough for us [...] -
This is a slight reboot of a recipe I posted last year simply called Sweet Potato and Black Bean Chili. Staying true to my use-what-I-have-on-hand roots I, well, used what I had on hand and made a similar dish with a spicy twist. Topping the result with avocado added a cool creaminess that [...] -
Did you hear? The Laughing Cow recently launched Smooth Sensations a line of 5 cream cheese spreads. There's Classic Cream, Classic Cream Light, Strawberries & Cream, Garden Vegetable and my favorite… Cinnamon. It's a sweet wedge of creamy goodness! Today I decided to use my new favorite flavor [...] -
Confession time, I recorded a 30 minute video making this with both kids (partally) 2 nights ago. I miss videos. I really do but they seem so much more difficult with 2 children. I'm also having technical difficulties with my video recording and audio syncing making it VERY time consuming to edit. [...] -
A couple of years ago I shared a modified version of Sloppy Joe's I made for a party. Everyone loved it but I've been wanting to try to make something similar for the family on a smaller scale and without the pre-made canned Manwich sauce. I don't particularly have any issues [...] -
Yesterday I was dreaming about a salad. Not just any salad, but a chickpea filled, cucumber, and red onion salad with a fun, tangy dressing. Unfortunately, I had no cucumber or red onion. Well, that's a lie. I had a half of cucumber but it was a mushy mess and [...] -
Dinner meals are getting harder and harder for me to share lately. I've gone back to just whipping things up without really measuring anything (this meal was going to be one of those until I realized I still had enough light to take some photos.) I've also instituted a few brainless meal nights [...] -
Three years ago I posted a video called "Makin' Hard Boiled Eggs" where I shared my system for, well... making hard boiled eggs. Genius name, I know. I'm smart like that. Anyway, since then I've gotten tons of feedback and comments thanking me but all the information is locked in a long winded 10 minute [...]

i totally agree! i THINK it kind of relates to the human body and mind not liking change. when it rests, it feels easy and good to keep resting. when moving, its easier to keep moving. oh i think thats why they say that its easier to run a mile (or however long) when you keep at the same pace, instead of stopping to walk and then running again. and also i think that thats why sleep feels SO good and it can be hard to wake up for many people, because you’re in this same state (sleep) for a long period of time and then you have to get up (which is change). sorry! totally just rambling nonsense here lol.

Im with ya on the in motion and staying in motion.
now to shift that mindset to a few other facets of my MizFitWorld :)

Roni, thanks for the comment on my post. I just love checking out your recipes. I have a favorite zuchini bread recipe, and I am going to make yours and do a taste comparison! I’ll let you know the results. And I really enjoy watching your videos. Thanks for all your hard work.

Roni,
This might be a silly question but do you just eat the SSPeas cold or what do you do with them. Do you buy them frozen or in one of those baggies in the produce section. Thanks!
~Katie
Katie – SO not a stupid question. This is one of those things that I’ve been thinking about putting on GreenLiteBites but it almost seems to simple so I wasn’t sure.
I do buy the bags of peas in the produce section. I then wash and warm in a non-stick skillet with a bit of olive oil PAM and salt. It takes all of 5 minutes and it’s one of my favorite sides! Maybe I’ll do a quick video on how I make them on GLB.
I understand what you’re saying about staying in motion. The past week I just felt so unmotivated to exercise and I didn’t other than walks with my 21 month old. He likes to push his own stroller so what should be a 10 minute walk turns in a 30 minute stroll. Last night I got off my bum and went for a run. I am set to do a 5K in October. So I ran 3.1 miles and I felt amazing after it. I was so energized by the run that I went to the gym this morning and ran the 5K program on the treadmill. However, all it takes for me is to miss one day of exercise and it often becomes difficult to get back into the groove. Does that happen to anyone else?
I agree with you Roni. I’ve really upped my exercise routine and am trying to do different things. I even did sprints up a hill yesterday!!
Have a great day!

Aimee, it happens to me, too. I’m doing the Couch to 5K, and I’m happy to have the set schedule for it. It becomes part of my week that I can’t skip. Right now, I’m doing that three days a week. As I progress, I’m starting to feel like I want to do it more and more, which is not usually my style, so things are changing.

This sorta fits with your post and it reminds me of the Y thing you are doing…..remember the President’s Fitness Tests? ;)
http://www.adultfitnesstest.org
You are amazing! are you sore this morning? I am so envious! I wish that my gym had a bootcamp class. I found that I need to workout about everyday. If I don’t I get irritable I think because it is my outlet to get rid of frustration and all the other icky emotions. Does anyone else do this?
So to help with my sanity on days I don’t get to go I do workouts on exercise tv ;)
Okay, what is the wall that you always talk about climbing? I have also wondered.
You go girl!!! Working out out that much is awesome…something you probably never thought would happen when you started this journey…I’m so proud of you…
Do you sleep? I think that is the better question…you have so much going on it seems…wife, mother, greenlite bites, blog to lose, roni’s weigh..which isn’t even all of it…your amazing…keep up the great work!!!
Tricia – There is a rock wall at the gym. I’ve been meaning to take a picture of it, maybe I wil… tonight! :~)
Jennie – A little sore, but not too bad. I agree with you, I need the workouts now for my well being. :~)
crista – I’m getting better at the sleep thing! LOL But I have to admit, I RARELY have a waisted moment during the day!
question about the commentluv box….when I checked it..it linked me to the last blog that I left a comment on..am I doing something wrong?? let me know
Check out cristas last blog post..Caitlin
crista – Hmmmm I think it’s because of the BlogToLose feed. What it’s doing is looking at your BlogToLose and finding the feed. The problem is the feed it finds is probably the master feed that has all activity. I’ll look into it for you. Sorry!
It linked me to the same blog, too … but it’s not the last one I commented on.
Check out Arlenes last blog post..Caitlin
Nope I’m the same way. I love my 2 hour work out days so much! I could easily go longer but life won’t allow it :0(
Thanks for answering my question on the rock wall. Please do take a picture of it for us, if you think about it. I am curious what it looks like.
that’s how I feel lately. If I had more time, I’d probably work out 3 times a day ;) I try to add little things into my day and by the end of the day, I have moved a lot. I had a meeting at my daughter’s school yesterday. Instead of driving, I walked. It’s about a mile each way. I made it there in 15 min and felt so energized at the meeting :)
Check out Annettes last blog post..Being Present and a Meme
I wish I belonged to a fitness club that has a wall to climb. That is something that I truly would love to do. But I belong to Curves, and of course they do not have anything like that. But Curves is where I also get my 2 nights a week pilates class, and I LOVE that class. If it ever stopped, I will quit Curves and find someplace else to work out…..hopefully a place that has a wall.
