I’ve been tracking my food in my day planner but not on this blog – oops! Also, my parents took me out for champagne cocktails on Friday night, which was very sweet of them but that on top of the wine was a little too much for this teetotaler. So I compensated for my slight [...]

I like when these things become the norm. 7am Green shake with 1 cup cold water, 1/2 scoop vanilla vegan protein powder, lots of romaine lettuce and kale, 1/2 tbsp chia seeds, [...]
