Yup, you guys were right. I cut meat from my diet. As I noted yesterday, it has only been a little over a month, but I am really liking the results so far. I have more energy, which is saying a lot, considering I’m constantly low on sleep these days. My stomach has felt really, [...]

I usually keep you guys in the know if I’m changing my diet. I tried my friend Jim White’s nutrition plan, I’ve been on the fitmixer meal plan, and lately, I’ve pretty much stuck to the “everything in moderation” plan. I have adopted my favorite attributes from both of these plans, splurged when I’ve felt [...]

LONG. AGO. [...]

My account is frozen, and I haven’t stepped foot into my old gym since before I had my surgery. And I don’t miss it. To be honest, I started realizing [...]

Special thanks to my good friend and fellow single lady Lauren for sending this to me. I just had to share, because, well, I’m pretty proud to be an imaginary board-pinning, Anthropologie-loitering single woman. High five and cheers, girls. Cue the Beyonce. You’re Sending Out Fancy Invitations, I’m Pinning Things To An Imaginary Board Aug. [...]

My friend Clare is taking over my blog today. I love her dearly, and I have a feeling you all will, too. Clare’s guest post is titled Why Alyssa Shouldn’t Be Afraid of Crossfit. [Disclaimer: I'm not afraid. I'm just a brat who is bad at trying new things all by herself] [okay, maybe I'm [...]
