I like to have an apple and peanut butter.

Good idea. I may try that. Only thing is I really like it. I cut out sugar from my coffee but cant seem to part with the half and half.

It's actually not terrible on time. I make it while my oatmeal is heating up. I tried almond milk but I'm too partial to H&H. Thanks.

No but I just wasn't sure if this made it not as healthy when compared to quinoa cooked in water...its purest form.

I like the Thin ones. So good.

I like to make Southwestern Style Quinoa. Not sure on the exact amount of quinoa you want to use. But I take a can of corn, rinse it and toss it in. Same with black beans, low sodium of course and rinse well. Then I chop up some red onion, bell pepper and tomatoes. I add in some lime juice, cumin, salt and pepper. Then top…

I put my old Asics on and didn't have the issue. Boo for the Reeboks.

Good tips. Thank you.

So it has nothing to do the fact that I'm new to running? I honestly thought it was just my feet were week or something.

Then turn down to stew for a…

Thank you. I have had some major issues with not staying full lately and always being hungry. That's why I upped my breakfast calories. Where as before it was just oatmeal. Then lunch is usually filling around noon but by 2:30-3 I'm hungry and get that wicked hunger headache even after my snack sometimes. I'm still trying…

Thank you all. Very good comments.

I keep a 1L bottle at my desk and drink and refil it at least twice throughout the work day. Thirsty has definitely crossed my mind.

Thanks all. I recently tried starting my days with coconut oil coffee. 12 oz brewed coffee, a tsp of sugar, 1 tbs of half and half and 2 tsp of coconut oil all blended. It's only been a week. I thought it would be a good way to incorporate coconut oil to my diet. I've read about all the benefits of CO so I wanted to try…

Sometimes I do baby carrots or cucumbers with hummus. I also keep a stock of mamma chia pouches on hand too. I honeslty think this is all in my head. Mind over matter maybe?
