Well, hello there.  :)  What a day, huh?    I thank everyone FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART for taking the time to offer support/constructive feedback on my rebuttal to the Marie Claire article.   I do not think I am perfect; I do not think this blog genre is perfect.   Nothing is perfect.  I wrote [...]

Well, I’m glad I didn’t put any pressure on myself with my personal yoga challenge (goal: practice more) because I woke up feeling SO sore!  I find it amazing that power yoga is so effective – my arms, back, abs, and thighs are done.  :)  I was planning to go to class this morning but [...]

If asked to rank my favorite Greek yogurt, they would be:  Trader Joe’s, Oikos, Fage, and Chobani.  TJ’s wins on creaminess and value.  Just wish it was organic like Oikos! With 1/2 cup raw oatmeal and a banana:   Achieve the “Impossible”   After a week of personal reflection, I wanted to answer one of [...]

I’m about to leave for a 13.1 mile training run, but the weather currently looks like: Not sure what the ramifications of this will be (Soaked and chafing? splashing in puddles like a 4 year-old?), but I’m going to give it a shot!  A little rain never hurt anyone.   In the meantime…  I’ve got [...]

Since I have some new readers after The Today Show segment aired, I thought I’d properly introduce myself!  :)   My name is Caitlin, I’m 26 years old, and this is my personal food and fitness blog.  Healthy Tipping Point’s tag line is “when everyday decisions add up to something amazing” and it’s the embodiment [...]

Morning!  Today looks like a busy day on my agenda, and I bet it does on yours, too.  So let’s get to it!   Breakfast: One great yogurt mess. In the mix:   1 serving honey Greek yogurt Flax Cinnamon 1/2 cup oatmeal Banana Blueberries Perfection It’s that time again – I’ve got a Healthy [...]

The winner of the Athenos feta giveaway is Charlene D!  She wrote, “The best summer food is whatever I can find at the local farmers’ market!! I am particularly loving heirloom tomatoes — and to think I detested raw tomatoes until 2 years ago!”   Breakfast on the floor!  Our house is a bit of [...]

We were all out of bread this morning, so I decided to drive to Great Harvest bakery and pick up some goodies.  Maggie drove. Cinnamonnnn buns smelled so good.  However, since I apparently have no self-control around Great Harvest cinnachip bread, I opted for the Honey Whole Wheat instead.  Ingredients:  Freshly Stone-Milled Whole Wheat Flour, [...]

Today we had some interesting debate/observations in the comments section about being an “ethical eater,” what exactly the requirements are, and who can call themselves one.  I think this is a really great topic for friendly discussion and am writing a post on the subject for tomorrow.  I hope it clears up some confusion about [...]

I woke up feeling sore, thirsty, and hungry.  Guess that’s what 73.0 miles on the bike will do to a girl!   So, breakfast tasted especially delicious: Sweet Potato Pancake   Ingredients:   3/4 cup oatmeal 2 tablespoons almond milk 1/4 cup sweet potato, mashed (to mash sweet potato quickly, wash the potato, stab it [...]

I hope everyone had a wonderful April Fool’s Day!  I was SLIGHTLY tricked by this Google Reader “Advantage” ad, but that’s it.  :)  I hope you had a fun day and rolled with the jokes.  Don’t take life too seriously – you won’t get out alive!   And THANK YOU for the photoshopping feedback.  It [...]

Getting out of bed is totally worth a breakfast like this: I had a Grilled Banana Sandwich – the recipe is here.  If you haven’t made this lovely guy (or a Grilled Strawberry Sandwich version), you aren’t truly living.  Maybe a vegan could try it with Angela’s French Toast recipe and tell me if it [...]

Meghann and I had such a good time on our trail run today!  The weather was gorgeous.  I love knowing I’m deep in the woods, with no civilization around for miles.  From the park’s website:  “The largest of Orange County's parks, Moss Park is an oasis of nature well secluded from the encroaching development of [...]
