School, Goals, & Baked Falafels

Yea.  Weird title for sure. Those 3 things don't really go together. But, I haven't updated for a bit over a week so wanted to play catch up a bit. School.  I have decided that I would like to head back to school and pursue a career in nutrition!! (And because I know this question will be asked)   Wait, Sarah.  What about Kenya? Love things happening here in Kenya.  We are still here!  I would just like to extend my knowledge in this area - an area that I've fallen in love with and would love to use to help other folks. I've been talking with my "go-to" gal, Stephanie, and she has recommended several options ranging from becoming a health coach to a RDN (registered dietitian nutritionist). So right now, just researching all kinds of things - what field, schools, programs, etc. It's an exciting time for sure!  I'll be sure to let you know when I've decided which route I'll go to. Goals. 11 weeks to go (as of today) till we ...

Athlete.

OH MY LANTA! My doctor called me an athlete today.  (She should be knighted.) She also said I had strong abdominal muscles and arm muscles (heck yes, she felt 'em!). After doing a pretty complete physical, she said I was healthy and strong. OH MY LANTA!! (Insert sobs here) Never in my life have I had someone in the medical field tell me that.  Do you know how AWESOME that feels? I've always been told the complete opposite. All this hard work pays off. Saying no to the junk pays off. Running 4-6 miles 6 days a week pays off. Lifting weights pays off. Holding that darn plank pays off. HIIT circuit after HIIT circuit pays off. This is a sweet moment in life that I'm at right now. I love that I'm HEALTHY. Now, to be honest, I still have 11 more pounds to go to be in the healthy range for my BMI…but she wasn't worried that I would get there soon…and I'm not worried either.  I'll get there this summer for sure! But, I'M HEALTH...

Just a continuation; not a resolution

A New Year.  A New You. It's a pretty popular phrase right now.   It's a great time to start fresh for the new year.  Make promises to yourself.  Set goals.  Dream big.   I actually have never really made resolutions for any new year.  Maybe when I was in high school but I don't remember them and I don't remember sticking to them.   When I was thinking about upcoming goals for myself for 2015 - I was relieved that I wasn't making a new resolution.  Yet I was just continuing what I've been doing this past year.   I don't like to make new resolutions.  Well, I should be specific.  I don't like to start something new on a popular day that everyone else is.  I'd rather start something on just a normal day.  Seems less pressure.  Maybe it's just my personality.    (And in writing that I realized that I picked today to start a new blog.  Ha.) But, for all purposes, it's not to...
