On my travels home from Oregon the other day, I bought a copy of O, The Oprah Magazine. (The “How to Transform Your… Stress Level” headline caught my attention!)
On one of the first pages of the magazine was a piece where five of the issue’s contributors (including Ted Allen – remember when I met him?) were asked a series of questions about the power of transformation.
I enjoyed reading the various questions and responses, so I decided to turn them into a fun post on CNC. Here are my responses to the five questions asked.
My all-time favorite makeover is…
My home office—just check out the before and after pics! Holy transformation!
I’d love to transform…
My colon health.
But I’d never change…
My sense of humor!
The one thing that makes everything better is…
A pug boat.
Nature’s most magical transformation is…
The beautiful colors of leaves in fall. I’m so looking forward to the season change.
Breakfast
This morning’s breakfast was a two-ingredient pancake (I’m getting really good at making these things – look how perfectly round it is) with almond butter on top. I also drank a glass of an iced decaf vanilla chai tea with almond milk and cinnamon.
Lunch
For lunch, I reheated some leftover cod and sautéed kale from last night’s dinner. I also added some avocado on the side.
Snack
As an afternoon snack, I ate a sliced banana with almond butter. Best snack ever.
Question of the Day
Finish this sentence…
I’d love to transform_____, but I’d never change_____.

I would love to transform my feeling of always having to find a solution/fix for everyones problems; but I would never change being there for everyone I love and listening (which is how I get into the whole stress of feeling I need to ‘fix everything for everyone’)

Your home office looks freaking amazing, holy cow! Dying over the pug boat baha. I love fall leaves but I keep hearing about fall and I am so not ready for it…I need more summer BBQs and white wine first, ya know?

I’d love to transform my work schedule, but money helps keep the lights on…
I want to thank you for the great work you’ve put into the blog. Since I’ve started reading this blog (one week ago) I’ve run 4 miles everyday and prepared every single meal!
Your almond butter in these photos looks righteous! May I ask where you buy this, or is it homemade?
Nice job!
