Whole 30: Day -1

August 29, 2012

I was really excited to announce the other day that my boyfriend and I are going to attempt a Whole30 challenge. I have heard nothing but positive feedback from the blogging/tweeting community, which has gotten me even more pumped to start this challenge! Jared is 100% on board with this challenge because 1) I do all […]

Cardio or Weight Lifting?

August 28, 2012

Fitness Cheerleader’s August Healthy Living/Fitness Blogger Writing Challenge: Day 28 Are you a cardio junkie or a strength junkie? If you couldn’t tell from my posts here, here, here, here, or here, I’ll tell you now that I would rather be lifting a barbell than lacing up my running shoes. While I do try to occasionally […]

All the New Things!

August 27, 2012

Fun things first!  I won another giveaway!! 🙂 I will now be the latest proud owner of some fancy Sweat Pink shoelaces, courtesy of Savvy Sassy Me. I started following Kacie’s blog recently and wish I was like her when I was 19; she is a coupon-clipping, weight-lifting, health/fitness junkie. What’s not to like!? Second.. I am […]

New shoes! And they’re not heels!

August 23, 2012

As you know, I am a huge proponent of running… not. For whatever reason I continue to sign up for races (have done 3 5ks thus far), and I have another one in October. I like races, just not the whole running part. I used to rock a cheap pair of Adidas from Kohl’s, but […]

Why am I here..

August 22, 2012

Fitness Cheerleader’s August Healthy Living/Fitness Blogger Writing Challenge: Day 21: Why did you start a blog? I have only been blogging since February, so the original intent of this blog is pretty much the same as how it is today: to blog about my journey to be healthy and strong. I wanted to track my […]

Warning: This is not food porn

August 21, 2012

I bought took out a mortgage on my house back in 2004 and it was a fixer-upper. Eight years later and it still needs a lot of work.

Slacking Sunday..

August 20, 2012

I’ve been so good lately about posting daily, but somehow this weekend with my sister coming into town and the weather just being gorgeous, my desire to sit in front of the laptop to type was pretty non-existent. I also was a major slacker from my usual obsessive iPhone picture-taking, so you’ll have to use […]

Fitness Cheerleader’s August Healthy Living/Fitness Blogger Writing Challenge: Day 20: List your 5 must-have fitness items I like to think of myself as pretty simple, but there are definitely items I cannot live without..  A hair-tie. I use Scuni “no damage” elastics because they work great for my not-so-thick hair and the pack comes with enough […]
