Bad Yogi

I’m supposed to be doing yoga now…but I was bad! I woke up hungry,wandered into the kitchen in my yoga clothes,and ate a strawberry.Well it all went downhill from there as I saw the oatmeal,the Goji berries,the Agave…and now I’m eating oatmeal with blueberries and Goji berries.Oh pooh! Traditionally you are supposed to practice yoga on an empty stomach,which was a bit tricky when I went to class,as I usually had to wait two hours after I got up,plus I have low blood sugar,so I usually had yogurt or toast or something light.And I rarely have a problem here at home at not eating before yoga…except today.

Which brings me to another favorite summer topic..or favorite topic altogether…

BERRIES! It’s starting on berry season in California,and will be berry season in July and August when I am in Washington! I can’t wait to pick fresh blackberries warm from the sun,gobble up marion berries,blue berries,raspberries…oh what a treat! Always healthier to eat them in their natural season instead of imported from Chile or Mexico!
viva la Berries!

Have I been neglecting you? I think so.Well,tumblr is just so much simpler.My apologies.Not that anyone actually reads this on a regular basis though! It's memorial day...I'm sure people are starting to awaken and hurry off to the beach already.Got a lot of cleaning and organizing to do.A run later.Oh that's right no mail :-(

I made a delicious juice for breakfast,will finish it for lunch

-two strawberries

-half a papaya

-an orange

-one cup of water

I need to give my digestive system a bit of a break,so just lots of fresh juices for few days.Should be back to new soon!

soo sunny ugh

Admitting It! Addiction 101

For not the first time,I am addicted...to sugar.This past week I was running a lot and fresh fruit got me through the morning, coconut water after the run,and chocolate in the mid afternoon.Hence,I have become a true sugar junkie.The past three days I charged to the store in the afternoon to get my fix of chocolate.At least, the last sugar I had was an organic,raw local brownie made with agave nectar and dates instead of processed sugar.

STILL

I don't feel good.When your body starts to become addicted to one food or ingredient,you start to question yourself.I really don't think it's serious, not like other addictions, but I nevertheless don't feel healthy.

Time to make the cut...

that is,until I have finished my last chocolate bar...

Dagoba Goji Berry...MMMM
