Hi RiverGirl! it IS lonely in here...
I'm not even going to explain what has been going on with me.
I have issues
Working through them though hopefully.
Along those lines, I have been doing a LOT of reading. I'm all stocked up on recipes to try (mostly vegan, though I am not vegan) and I'm all inspired about exercise due to books such as The Exercise Cure (Dr. Jordan Metzl) and Ultrametabolism (Dr. Mark Hyman).

B - coffee with us almond milk. Chia protein pudding.
L - Shirataki noodles with veggie meatballs and marinara sauce

I'm using too many "fake meat" products - am trying to get away from them in general but I have quite a stockpile that I want to use up first. I do have to say that the veggie meatballs I found are insanely delicious... I think I will always have the odd processed veggie product (veggie pepperoni and the meatballs spring to mind) but I don't want to rely on highly processed soy and gluten.
