Here’s a few more of both the babies!

January was filled with a bunch of engagement sessions and also 3 beautiful weddings. Along with a pile of orders for thank you cards, invitations, save the dates, guestbooks, wedding albums…..you name it, I’m working on it!  Yep, a little hairy around here! Thank dog I love my job.

So the real point of this post, which my non-descript title is eluding to, is the 21 day cleanse I’m about to embark on.

I thought I’d share a little blog post to explain my very likely intense mood swings and cranky Twitter updates over the next 3 weeks. :P It’s not a typical starve-yourself type cleanse where you live off of liquids for a ridiculous amount of time or eat only one thing everyday. It’s simply just a %100 plant based diet – therefore, no meat, dairy, sugar, gluten, caffeine or alcohol.  Yep, like most you right now, at first I thought what the heck is left? Suprisingly, quite a bit! Basically unlimited vegetables, beans/legumes, fruit, grains, nuts, oils, spices, natural sweetener, rice & almond milks. I like to think I eat relatively healthy already, so it won’t be a severe change but there are some things I will definitely have to adjust to. I think the hardest thing for me will be the cheese, eggs and coffee. Those are like my 3 staples! And chicken. I eat a lot of chicken. I love meat. Love it. And I rely on it for a lot of my protein intake. I’m a little concerned about getting enough protein after workouts and stuff, but, I’m hoping to supplement that with more shakes, soy ones if need be, but I’m hoping I can find something non-soy. The actual cleanse is only 3 weeks-not THAT long. I think I can hack it. The point, for me at least, is not to drastically change my way of eating for life, but, just bring a little more awareness to myself of what is on my plate and where it came from. And I guess, “cleanse” my body at the same time? For now, it’s just a personal challenge. I feel like my body needs a re-boost right now and I think this is a great way to “clean things out” and get myself back to a fresh slate. I’m lucky to have Kristopher joining me in this pursuit so together, we’ll have a little more power and ambition to complete it, I hope!! We’re planning to run in the Vancouver Sun Run this year and will be starting training soon, so this will co-incide nicely with that. I’m also really looking forward to getting back to Bikram Yoga soon. I’ve been on a hiatus since November due to a hamstring injury and I’m REALLY missing it. The doc put me on strict orders NOT to go to yoga for at least 2 months, so I had to stay away. The hammy is finally feeling better though, I think, so I’m going to head back to the studio in the next week or two. So, all this combined means the beginning of an exciting new chapter. I’m looking forward to it!

Here I sit, now enjoying my last cup of caffeinated Jo for the next 3 weeks. Savouring every taste. What lays ahead, who knows…but I hope I can make it through to the end!

It’s that time of  year again!

I’m SUPER stoked to start up the Cans For Comments again this year. This will be my third year participating in this great initiative and I’m excited to see how far it reaches this year! Here’s how it works: For every comment I get on the blog over the next 4 weeks, I will donate a can of food to the Vancouver Food Bank.  That’s it! That’s all you gotta’ do. 10 seconds out of your day to leave a bit of love on the blog and you’ve donated to a great cause. :)

So go ahead, clickety click click! Leave as many comments as you want and let’s rack up the cans!

Happy Holidays!

I only posted a few before, so here’s the full meal deal…..better late than never, right? I took a different route with my editing on these and decided to do a mix of cross processing and such….something a little different for this time through NYC :) Enjoy!

I take pictures everywhere but so many of them never make the light of day on the internet. Most of them are archived away for my own viewings with very good “intentions” to edit and post “ASAP”. Yah, well, my client work always takes priority so a lot of my personal stuff is still waiting to be posted.  I really need to keep up on posting some travel pics this year since I’m so lucky to be visiting so many great parts of the world. With that in check, I’ll be posting some travel pics over the next little while from last years trips. I never did get around to posting the second half of my Hawaii photos, so, with no other introduction required, here, is paradise part two!
