Good morning! Happy Thursday!
I need to speed through this post because I have a photographer coming to my house for a 3-hour photo shoot for Where Woman Cook. I haven’t showered, taken Murphy out, or cleaned my house yet, so I have lots to do this morning!
Breakfast
For breakfast, I ate two TF’s waffles with almond butter spread on top and an nectarine on the side. I also drank an iced coffee with soy milk. I definitely need the caffeine this morning! Go-go-go!
Three Questions Thursday
Here’s the next installment of Three Questions Thursday! Thanks for all of your great questions!
I was wondering if you could address the issue of eating healthy when eating out. I, as I’m sure many people do, have a lot of trouble balancing my healthy eating habits with my social life. I really don’t want to eat food that’s not good for my body but I also really don’t want to miss out on hanging out with people. Do you have any suggestions for this?

Have you recently lost a lot of weight Tina? Is this due to running so much?
Yes and no. Since January when I ran the marathon, I’ve lost 8 or 9 pounds (I gained close to 10 during training), so I’m pretty much back to my Feel Great Weight. (I’m not trying to lose anymore.) Recently, however, I haven’t lost any weight, and I’ve actually been running less in the last few months. Check out my fun DailyMile chart below!
How do you run with a camera?
I don’t run with a camera. I run with my iPhone to listen to music, so I also use the camera app to snap photos.

My favorite moment of the day is when my husband comes to the room at 7:45 am and wakes me up with a hug and kiss on the cheek. I need a little TLC before getting myself to the bathroom.
I can’t wait to see the photo shoot, so exciting!
A photo shoot in your house?! You really are a celeb, Tina! Good luck!
My favorite moment of the day is waking up and eating breakfast
I love that early morning rush!
And I can’t wait to see this photoshoot. Sounds so cool
My favorite moment of the day is…when my hubby gets home from work
my favourite moment of the day is when i wake up & stretch/work it out! such a good start to the day. i also love the moment where i am home from work & can lounge in my pajamas!
My favorite moment is when my little pug Lucy wakes up and her tail is wagging like crazy! It’s like she is saying I missed you while I was sleeping! Such love!
My favorite moment of the day is…..when I climb into bed with my husband! Also equal to finishing a good workout
Have fun with the photo shoot!
Favorite moment of the day is taking my first sip of a freshly brewed pot of Trader Joe’s coffee. Also, all meal times are favorite times of the day.
A photoshoot?? That sounds like so much fun!
My favorite moment of the day is taking a shower & eating a meal after a good workout. There’s nothing like a feeling of accomplishment.
My favorite moment of the day is when my boyfriend snuggles close, gives me a kiss, and says “Good morning, beautiful”. What better start to the day could I ask for?!
Tina, totally unrelated to this post, but have you seen this website?! http://mugsofpugs.tumblr.com/
@Rachel: Love it!!! I just submitted a photo of Murphy!
My moment of of the day is when I’m able to wake up and head out for a nice run. I really enjoy the alone time with my thoughts.
My favorite moment of the day is when I have my morning coffee. best feeling ever
Congrats on getting back to your feel great weight!!
My favorite part of the day is after I finish my morning workout, knowing iced coffee and breakfast is next!
breakfast ! I love being up before the world starts and enjoying a calm morning. It’s my “me” time.
My favorite part of the day is the morning. I wake up to a snoring husband, an energetic puppy and two cats begging for food. It’s work to take care of them, but I love it.
My favorite part of the day is waking up to ideal running conditions, getting out there, and returning for a great breakfast and iced coffee!
my fave moment is climbing into bed with my husband and dog. they are so freaking cute.
Good question – my fave time of the day is usually when I’m finishing a workout, run or yoga class – nothing beats that sense of accomplishment, and the endorphin high that comes from the physical exertion
My favorite moment of the day is right after a workout after work when I’m cooling down and getting ready to prep dinner!
A favorite moment of the day is right before my kids go to bed. We snuggle, sometimes read, sometimes rock — and I get lots of hugs and kisses. It makes the crazy moments of the day worth it every time!
My favorite part of the day is finishing my evening workout and relaxing with hubby.
That first sip of coffee. Yum!
I love early morning’s around my apartment. As much as I don’t like getting up early, the silence and calm throughout Harvard Square is so enjoyable. Especially in the fall.
My favorite moment of the day is breakfast=)
Glad your interview went ok!
That’s so exciting about the photoshoot. I hope it went well!
My favourite moment of the day is early in the morning, when everything is quiet and still and it’s just me + my coffee.
My favorite moment of the day is in the morning, when I’m at the gym or running – I cannot face my office without having that quiet time to wake up! Or breakfast time if it’s the weekend and I have time to eat a slow, luxurious-feeling meal.
When I curl up before bed with a good book and bowl of dry cereal to munch on!
You do look extra skinny lately! Maybe it’s all the muscle you put on when you were training, and now that the extra lbs are gone you look super cut!
Favorite moment of ANY day is when a student of mine ‘gets’ something on their own and tells me about their miraculous ‘ah-ha!’ moment. I live for that!
It’s a tie….during my morning workout….or laying in bed together with my bf before dozing off for the evening.
