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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]

I just finished Stage 6 of my NROLFW program on Monday (yay!). It was by far my favorite stage. While stage 6 was optional, it was recommended for anyone who wanted to be able to achieve a chin-up. And heck yes, it worked! 🙂 It included negative chin-ups, pull-downs, push-ups, and split squats. I made […]

While I haven’t adopted a fully-Paleo lifestyle, I have been making much better choices when it comes to carbs with meals. No longer do I feel that every meal must have potatoes (as did every meal growing up), rice, or pasta (my old fave, I miss you). It has been a week since I had the incident with my […]
