Starting Weekend Binge early..

July 20, 2012

I have a habit of taking pictures of everything I eat. I figure it will keep me somewhat accountable for when I do make unhealthy choices. But I will say when I make unhealthy choices, I’m sure I get closer to my calorie goals than when I don’t.. So for lunch today, I present to […]

Fruity goodness

July 19, 2012

When I returned from my vacation, I considered some sort of detox diet or cleanse to rid myself of all of the junk that I indulged in during my vacation. I looked into the 21-day Sugar Detox (recommended by the super fun Stephanie), but I don’t think my problem is a sugar addiction. I can easily pass on […]

Sunday Blehs.

July 15, 2012

As I mentioned before, I am pretty conservative with my eating habits Monday – Friday.  I avoid all bread, pasta, oats, and rice, and stick to mostly protein and good fats, while my carbs come only from fruits and some veggies. Well, up until Friday night. Then something happens when I allow myself a “cheat […]

Everybody’s doing it.

July 11, 2012

I love taking pictures of the most random things with my iPhone. It’s a bad habit, as my camera roll gets filled up pretty quickly with random screen shots of uselessness and pictures of my outfits, my face, and most importantly, my food. I also love Instagram to make my lack in camera skills look […]

Budget Paleo-sagna (or Primalsagna with cheese!)

July 10, 2012

Edit: When I originally wrote this post, I was all about eating cheese all the time- not paleo. Adding the cheese will not make this paleo, but does make it more delicious! I love veggies. Okay, not really. Actually, almost not at all.  I grew up as a meat and potatoes girl, and my parents […]

I’ll run for a milkshake..

July 9, 2012

Although we have a great setup in our garage, fully equipped with an Olympic weight set, pull-up bar, rower, and adjustable dumbbell weights, the Michigan record temps have been just way too much for me to handle. I love the idea of working out at home, but Friday night’s workout sent me back to the […]

Overhead Squawaaahhhh

July 5, 2012

Since I did a bunch of fun bodyweight squats on my birthday, and threw in some back-squats as part of NROLFW Stage 7 on Tuesday , I figured why not have some more fun with squats today and do some Overhead Squats, where were the Workout of the Day (WOD) on Crossfit.com for today.  They didn’t […]

A Pull-up for my Birthday!

July 3, 2012

So after my horrible mini-meltdown after an amazing vacation full of sleeping and eating, and more eating and eating.. I think my boyfriend had some pity on me and decided to give me an advance on my pull-up challenge and buy me a present anyway without me having to torture myself some more 🙂 I […]

How NOT to stay fit on vacation…

July 1, 2012

So I wanted to create this post to sum up my vacation as a “How to Eat Healthy/Stay Fit While on Vacation,” but I didn’t make it past two days myself, so thought it would be a bit hypocritical to tell others how to live their lives while I have a big glass of wine […]
