Under 400cals including the EVOO it was cooked in Under 400cals including the EVOO it was cooked in 😋 I’m making braised pork belly tonight to feed my Okinawan side. See that over on my @thestrugglinghafu page 😉 Chicken, potatoes & green beans: 43p/33c/9f 390cals 6oz chicken (weighed raw) 148g potatoes 100g green beans Heat 1t of EVOO in the cast iron. I like soft potatoes. I can’t standby when they’re crunchy. I microwaved them in a bowl of water for about 3 minutes. While the potatoes were in the microwave, I sprinkled the chicken with seasonings. I used smoked paprika, seasoning salt, pepper, onion & garlic powder. Placed them in the heated oil and covered. Flipped every couple minutes. Put a couple cups of water in a pan and added the green breads. Let it boil til they were soft. When the chicken was done, I added the potatoes. Added some 0cal spray butter, pepper & seasoning salt. Cooked til all sides were browned. Empty the water the green beans were in and return to stove. Reduce heat to lo. Add any seasonings. I just did salt & pepper. Our employers gives us 30 min each day of PAID time to get some exercise in. I have a treadmill and an elliptical. Which one would you choose? #lunchtime #macros #trackingmacros #macrotracking #easylunch #weightloss #leaningout #iifym #flexibledieting #flexibleeating #flexibleeatingandfitness #flexibleeatinglifestyle #countingmacros #macrocounting #macrofriendly #macrofriendlyrecipes #chickenrecipes #chickenlunch #macrofriendlymeals #workfromhomelife #worklunchideas #worklunches #mealprep #mealprepideas #mealpreps #quicklunch #quicklunchideas

Cave Springs loop today. About 30 miles south of S Cave Springs loop today. About 30 miles south of Salem. It’s a fairly easy hike. Less than 5 miles. No major uphills. Path is well maintained, without debris or lots of loose rocks. A couple gorgeous scenic areas. Devils Well. And this beautiful cave. There’s also a great little area to swim if it were hot enough. But instead, it was 36*F when we got back in the car around 4. I could see my breath.....not my kind of hiking 😂 Layered up...a lot....

100% comfy 👍🏼 So much walking at work. Back 100% comfy 👍🏼 So much walking at work. Back aches. Joints ache. Headache. No room for dress clothes and heels! Thanks Accutane & herniated discs 🙄 I love a simple jean jacket outfit. Especially dressing down with one that has a hood! What’s your favorite way to wear one? You know why I want but can’t find locally? A criss cross v-neck. Where’d you get your favorite from?

Was looking forward to my first Christmas back home in KC since I moved 12 years ago. Unfortunately, we had to postpone yet another holiday 😭 I saw my family once at the of December last year and once in June. Was really looking forward to getting some much needed hugs! What plans do you have for Christmas? Will you get to see family you haven’t seen for a while!? Who’s cookin?

Welllll....I found out my leggings aren’t squat Welllll....I found out my leggings aren’t squat proof. So there’s that 🤦🏻‍♀️ First time lifting with our new Hex Bar. I’m quite shocked that my knees and back held up during the workout and this morning. I honestly expected to be in a lot of pain considering my back goes out when I accidentally take a long stride or walk too fast of a pace. Going to the doc today though to talk about these herniated discs! Wish me luck 🤞🏼 You know what I also found out? @idealfit released theirLimited Edition Red Velvet protein! I love Red Velvet cake so much! Now I can’t stop thinking about some cake and all that yummy frosting! I just kept mine simple this morning and mixed it with some vanilla almond milk. When I have a bit more time, I’m thinking about a mug cake topped with some cool whip 🤤 This creamy shake is sweet but not too sweet. No Chunks. No grit. No bad aftertaste. 100 calories. 20g of whey isolate protein.

Is there a temperature window where skinnies and c Is there a temperature window where skinnies and converse are appropriate, or a season when it’s not? It was so incredibly cold (high of 42*) for me but I knew I wanted to be comfy at work. Walking between buildings was stupid cold and I thought, “why on earth am I wearing this!?” But sitting at my desk, I was super comfy with my space heaters 😂 Flannel: @kohls Black V Neck: @kohls Leggings: @americaneagle Shoes: @converse Skinnies were $5 and converse were brand new with tags for $10, both at #goodwill 😂 👍🏼 #ootd #comfyoutfit #gotitatgoodwill #relaxedfit #relaxedoutfit #offtowork #workoutfit #outfitoftheday #sonoma #sonomabrand #americaneagle #jeggings #converse #comfyclothes #lotd #lookoftheday #outfitdetails #todaysoutfit #kohls #flannel #flannelseason #flannelshirt #flannelweather #businesscasual #businesscasualoutfit #skinnyjeans #kohls #kohlsfinds
Who else is working out at home these days? I was Who else is working out at home these days? I was a huge gym rat. It was my happy place! Then 13 years ago, I moved to a tiny town. There was not a gym in our town. I’d have to go to the town over, which wasn’t a big deal, but I couldn’t justify the time away from the family and the price of the membership. Later, we moved out of city limits, and soon after, the town finally got a small gym 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 I actually really enjoy working out at home. I save anywhere from 20-40 min of drive time. I can workout in my jammies. I can split my workouts into different blocks of time if needed, that way I can take care of priorities (kids are home for school, working from home, household chores, etc). I even hosted boot camp classes and virtual workouts here because the price to rent any space is 2-3 times more than i make teaching classes 😂 Your home gym area doesn’t have to be glamorous like the pictures we see from tons of influencers. It just has to be functional. 98% of our equipment was free, from Goodwill, or from the Caring Center (like a Salvation Army). My must haves: Dumbbells 5-20lbs Resistance bands A big ole tire (we were actually given multiple sizes of tires, but this ones my favorite) An exercise ball Between all of those, you can mimic almost all the machines/equipment at the gym! What are your at home gym must haves? Drinking @idealfit Peach Leamonade BCAAs and waiting for my Strawberry Kiwi PreWorkout to kick in 🤣 IdealFit has a huge Cyber Monday deal going on!

I can never make pasta look decent 🤷🏻‍♀️ but you get the idea 🙃 I really had to start putting some effort into meal prepping because making lunch during my work from home hours was taking entirely too much time. So I stopped eating til much later in the day or else I’d grab something out and about and it was usually not even remotely healthy. Italian Turkey Meatballs with a homemade sauce on top a bed of regular spaghetti noodles & zoodles I absolutely love noodles and I will never give up my pasta completely 😂 so I used half a serving of noodles and added zucchini noodles to make up for the rest. I ended up with more zucchini that I would have with just noodles, so I’m a happy & full girl 🤤😂 55p 49c 22f Should’ve made smaller meatballs and made 3 servings instead of two, but it all stick works out macro wise for me. #homemademeatballs #turkeyballs #turkeymeatballs #groundturkey #groundturkeyrecipes #zoodles #zuchinninoodles #zuchinnirecipes #zucchinirecipes #zucchininoodles #spaghettiandmeatballs #lunchbox #lunchtime #macros #trackingmacros #macrotracking #easylunch #weightloss #leaningout #iifym #flexibledieting #flexibleeating #flexibleeatingandfitness #flexibleeatinglifestyle #countingmacros #macrocounting #macrofriendly #macrofriendlyrecipes #macrofriendlymeals #workfromhomelife

Been on 40mg/day each month so far Who else is taking this and has a “Must Always Be With Me” kind of stash? 💊Tylenol for the achey joints 👄 All sorts of chapsticks because certain masks, outdoor/indoor temps, activities, etc calls for a certain type (and this isn’t including the one at my desk, bedside, bathroom, car, and the one next to my couch). 🧖🏼‍♀️ Moisturizer for the dry spots (mines not flaking, just super dry sporadically & noticeable) 👃🏼Triple Antibiotic Ointment for my extremely dry nostrils 👁 Lubricant eye drops for the lovely dry eyes What I’ve tried in the past: 👉🏼 Cureology - their formula for me included medicine I was already on prescribed to me by the Derm. Saw 0 changes 👉🏼 Proactive - 0 help 👉🏼 Prescription Oral Antibiotics - over the course of 10 years, I was routinely on one of the following: Doxycycline, Amoxicillin, Clindamycin, and others - results the first few months of each were great, but I always stalled & was left with 10-15ish pimples regularly, which was always better than what it would’ve been without 👉🏼 Prescription Topical Antibiotics - clindamycin - noticed 0 changes 👉🏼 Prescription Spironolactone - started at 50mg and world up to 100mg over about a year with minimal improvement 👉🏼 Trentinoin Cream 0.1% - lots of dry, flaking skin, but no change otherwise 👉🏼 every Benzyl Peroxide wash, cream, gel, or wipe And I know there’s a ton of other OTC products 🤷🏻‍♀️ What do you carry around in your stash?
