Wow, it has been such a busy two weeks that I have literally forgotten to miss eating carbs. Seriously, between heading to Noosa, The Runner nearly breaking his face, frantically trying to nail down wedding vendors, addressing and sending Save the Dates, starting a new job, planning (or at least…

So…. Happy November readers! I haven’t eaten yet today and already I have a No Carb November dilemma….. If it comes from corn, does it doubt as a carb? In my mind, I say yes. But I’m standing outside a Mexican place which looks tasty and my belly says No,…

So, in the midst of all the job searching, wedding planning, and challenge eating, I’ve neglected to tell you that it’s Noosa Week! Well, not yet, but as of Friday it is! What am I on about are you asking? The Noosa Triathlon Festival– it’s The Runner’s favourite triathlon of…

It was 39 degrees in Sydney today and walking home from the bus stop, I finally worked out what I’ve missed most in the last 10 days…. Ice Cream. Ice Cream is the single reason that no matter what science or a doctor tells me, I will never, ever, ever…

Whoa……… We’re 1/3 of the way there! Woh- oh, living dairy free! (It makes more sense if you hum Bon Jovi’s Living on A Prayer in your head when you read it) I did have a cheat day at a fabulous wedding but other than that I’ve been totally on…
