The other day I finally made the purchase of some gadgets to help assist me with my training to hopefully increase my running and cycling potential. Nothing like that instant performance feedback! I’ve seen that many of you cannot live without your Garmins and I couldn’t help when I saw that Amazon had the Garmin 305 on sale for 48% off! I’m a sucker for a sale, well I really don’t buy most things unless they are on sale, and I’ve been searching different brands/models for awhile now. . .

soups on!
When Chris and I both got home tonight we were pooped! Chris was feeling less than stellar from a crazy day at work, and we were really contemplating just grabbing something to eat out, but with a few days still left for the Eat In Month Challenge we just decided it would be better to stay in. Plus, I had ingredients ready to go for some (more…)
FYF: Safe Weight Loss for Athletes
Welcome to the first installment of Fuel Your Fitness!
I’d like to feature a different sports nutrition topic each week, or every other week, here at eatingRD to help fuel your performance, reach your personal fitness goals or just provide interesting information. I’m open for any suggestions too and have already received great ideas from many of you, which I’ve been researching and compiling. I picked Friday not only because it goes well together — Fuel Your Fitness Fridays–, but because the weekends can be the start to a great fitness opportunity. Many of us are very busy during the week and sometimes let workouts pass, but I’m hoping that featuring this important information on Fridays will motivate those weekend workouts 🙂

I am having the darndest time getting up in the morning lately! ugh, 5am is just too darn early and when the alarm goes off I moan and groan wishing I could just stop time for a few more hours. I’ve always had this fascination with wanting to be able to stop time. Wouldn’t that be awesome? ha, in the mean time I’ll keep wishing for that day and get my butt out of bed! I think it does have a lot to do with not getting to bed till close to 11pm, which I need to fix.
I’ve been trying to get (more…)

just a quick hello
Hello! I hope you all had a nice week! I think Vegas has gotten more rain in these past 4 days than we have in all last year! Crazy. I can’t believe how much rain California is getting too. Overall this week has been nice, work wasn’t too crazy, I got my committee together for my thesis (finally) and I may be doing a couple cooking classes for Whole Foods! The site is sooo close, but there are a few things that I need help with still, so I just won’t say a date anymore 🙂 ugh. (more…)

some good eats + quality time
The best part about the weekend, aside from getting to sleep in till 7am and getting caught up with life, is being able to whip up some tasty meals and really enjoy the company of family. Usually during the week I rush home to get something on the table, talk briefly about the day’s happenings and then spend the rest of the night trying to catch up on school work, research, blogs, blogging, etc, never being seen again till bed time. I don’t like that, although for the next 3 semesters it’s going to have to suffice somehow 🙂
I just wanted to share a couple tasty recipes that I hope you can enjoy with your family and friends or simply in the solace of your own company . . . (more…)
