Veggie Bee

Where has this week gone?! I’ve felt a little loopy since our weekend at Disneyland, lots of walking and apparently not enough hydrating. But at least it’s Friday, and even though technically the summer is almost over, I still want to believe that we’re going to get some warmer weather again. It’s been such an overcast summer.

So where have I been all summer? Although we started off the summer, after our trip to Mississippi, with some uncertainty in the job situation, the summer was still productive and lots and lots of fun. The biggest thing that kept me away from blogging was studying to get my Health Coaching certificate! Can I just rave for a moment about the Institute for Integrative Nutrition? I have found my calling with this place. Even though we are studying literally a hundred dietary theories in the courses, from Atkins to raw food to veganism, the bottom line is that no one diet, whether long-term or short-term, is suitable for every single person. It is up to each individual to explore what works best for them in terms of becoming healthy and adding in healthy behaviors in their life. That’s what I’ll be helping people to do, to find ways to add in new healthy behaviors in ways that can be maintained long term. I already love doing this!!

I also did 90 days of P90X and am thoroughly impressed with the program. I am now training for the Carlsbad Marathon in January (five days before I turn 40!!) with In Motion Fit, but I am still incorporating some of the P90X routines into my schedule for cross-training. Let me just say I love Plyometrics!! I plan to do another round of 90 days after I run the marathon.

But the true highlight of my summer is captured below, we love us some Lindsey!!!
