I give thanks for places like Two Boots Pizza, for their creation of the absolutely delicious V for Vegan pizza.

Good Morning,

My morning post pee weight (AMPPW) is 129.  I refuse to weigh myself more than once a week.  I don't want to be skinny.  I want to be lean and strong.

I cheated twice yesterday.  First, after my morning work out, I went to my bagel shop and got my favorite: potato, egg and cheese on an everything bagel.  I treated myself since . . . hello . . . I did two 5Ks this past weekend.  I wasn't going to, but I did.  Because the thing about treats and cheat days is that your body knows.

Then last night, I thought the cast of one of our shows was having a pizza party.  I could have sworn that I saw mini pizzas from my favorite vegan pizza shop come into the building.  It turned out to be a cookie and beer party.  Classy I know.  The beer doesn't phase me at all.  But the cookies were from Insomnia.  I tried to walk away . . . but I ate two.

These are not terrible offenses.  But I do wonder what will happen in these situations during my 2014 challenge.

Be well,
K

I just oven roasted these gorgeous potatoes with grape tomatoes in homemade veggie broth.  They came out soooo good.


Welcome

Welcome to the forward motion of my life.

During the past few months I have fallen in love with power walking 5K races.  In addition, after years of being a vegetarian, I have graduated to bouts going truly vegan.

I believe that I have everything I need inside of me to be a healthier person.  I refuse to throw up my hands and use genetics as an excuse for bad habits.

Follow me as I spend 2014 becoming a vegan athlete, and reclaim my body in the name of myself.  I will take you to the doctor, on walks, and into the wonderful world of real food.

Much love,
Karen
