Food, Inc

Last night I watched a documentary called Food, Inc 

and let's just say there will be a few changes made 

around our home. The film was horrifying and

left me feeling a bit helpless in my lack of sleep state of

mind by the end of my shift. Needless to say I dreamt

about ways we could grocery shop.... 4 hours

of sleep later and I'm wide awake! 

The good thing about having such a long day being 

awake is that I've been able to do quite a bit

of research on how to buy more locally than we have been.

I've always tried to buy organic where possible but

I think it's time to step it up a bit. 

We are very fortunate that we both have good jobs

that afford us to be a bit more flexible when it comes

to having disposable income. Lucky for us we also

live in a big city that has a lot to offer. It might take a few

days to implement some change but I'm hopeful that by 

next weekend I will have a game plan made up 

and good changes will be heading our way!

For all those who haven't seen it. Please do. 

It's actually a really important message with a ton of 

information about where our food comes from and 

the way WE CAN change the way 

our food is processed.

Baby Bear

My sister Kristin had her FOURTH baby in

January. Little Andy joined the "Woolf" pack and he is so 

dang cute. I always wanted girls and only girls when we

have a family, but seeing this chunky little man may have

changed my mind on the "throw back" plan.

His three big sisters adore him and he is def

gonna have 3 bossy little mama's to keep him in line.

"If you don't like starting over..."

STOP GIVING UP!

After eating like shit, and not working out, 

the scale and I were friends off this morning!

So I laid back in bed and wallowed for a few

minutes in self pity...

And then got up and got on the treadmill. I 

feel better already even though I'm a tomato 

face. Next up {After a mini blog break of course}

making a healthy dinner for work tonight and then 

washing my disgustingly greasy hair! HAHA

Sunshine and Snow

A few weeks ago, after humming and hawing,

we decided to hit the slopes and head to Fernie

for a mini ski day! It did not disappoint! 

My legs were hell-of-a sore for about 3 days post,

but we got some sunshine on our faces and 

burned a few calories while we were at it!

Plus I got to wear my ice-cream sundae socks and

drink my dads coffee so

it was a win/win!

Back To It

I was a lucky duck this week and 

snagged 2 overtime shifts which will 

hopefully going towards that hot holiday

that we both REALLY want to do this

spring. That being said, they were unexpected

to my meal prep fell behind. I didn't fall too far

off the wagon though so that's a 

relief. I ran 5 days in a row so I took 

yesterday off running as well as it was 

a rest day of the squat challenge. 

The running must have been keeping 

me stretched because my hips were so

sore last night after doing neither during the

day. OUCH! Back to the grind though. Gotta 

get this body turned around to regular 

hours because I don't want to sleep 

this weekend away!!!! We are going to be

getting our house all Christmafied!

I'm excited that the festive season is upon

us and want to enjoy the next little while we have

off together. Rhys has been hitting the gym as 

well so between us both working OT 

and working out, we haven't seen much of 

each other this week. Next week I'm back on

nights which is always a treat ;)
