And then I poisoned myself

We had another busy weekend and I’m spent – which is the opposite of how I should feel after a weekend.  Friday I went to a Leadership Forum put on by the John Glenn School of Public Affairs at Ohio State University.  It was a 

Poisoned at work!

In celebration of a coworkers upcoming wedding the managers brought in cupcakes and (from what I was told) gluten-free granola bars for after our staff meeting.  I grabbed one to eat with my cottage cheese and fruit for breakfast and STUPIDLY didn’t read the label 

Workout Wednesdays: Sept 26 – Oct 2

Workout Wednesdays: Sept 26 – Oct 2

I was ready to get back into workouts this week after a long vacation, but I had a little set-back.  All is well now, but it made for a bad workout week through the weekend.  Last Tuesday at volleyball I dove for a ball that 

Anti-Obesity Campaign = Fat Shaming?

Last Thursday while driving into work I was listening to a story on NPR about a new anti-obesity media campaign that launched in Minnesota featuring two ads that some consider controversial.  Some feel that the two ads are derogatory and fall into the category of

Reunited and it feels so good!

Maybe the title is an exaggeration, but not only have we not seen our friends for a few weeks, but it’s been even longer since we’ve seen the sweet dogs!  Okay, sweet when they aren’t being crazy.  We feel like people are always judging us 

Workouts: Sept 5 – Sept 11

Since I couldn’t do my 100 Challenge earlier last week, I ended up having to do it 5 days apart instead of 7.  It worked out okay because the second time wasn’t as hard as the first, based on the exercises.  This was a so-so
