Sorry for the little blogging hiatus. Yesterday I had a crazy, CrAzY day!!! I went from one thing, to the next, to the next, to the next until I finally fell into a heap on my bed and went to sleep. Monday (President’s Day) I made the executive decision to spend 4-5 hours cleaning my house! Yes, it was a total pain in the bum, but it did wonders for my mood and stress level. When my house is a wreck, I feel stressed. When my house is clean, I feel happy and calm. Sad, but true. So, now I’m Continue Reading…
Resistance Training is your Friend
As I was leaving the gym the other day, I was thinkin’….. I felt just a little bit leaner, stronger and healthier….and I was very happy about it. I remembered when I left that same class the week before I felt a little sluggish and poofy. Interesting…… Well, if you recall….last week I was living high on the hog! I was chowin’ down on the sugar and livin’ it up! It was very fun, but it really did have an affect on my body. I felt bloated, more tired and I craved crappy food all the time! On the flip Continue Reading…
Happy Friday!!!
Happy Friday everyone! I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE Fridays!!! Except they make me want to eat yummy, bad food to celebrate! Dang. We had a fun Valentine’s date night. We got some yummy Greek food from Apollo Burger. Quick side note, I don’t know if it’s just a Utah thing or not, but why do all the “fancier” hamburger joints sell Greek food too???? Weird. I don’t get it, but I’m not complaining because I love Greek food! Kev and I shared a giant Gyro salad (basically a Greek salad topped with Gyro meat) and I got a Chicken Souvlaki Continue Reading…
Low Carb Swiss Chicken
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! I hope you’ve all had a fun day and are out doing something fun tonight! Kev and I really don’t want to fight the crowds or wait 2 hours to go to dinner (I know, we’re party poopers.) So, we’re going to get some takeout and go to a late night movie. Fun. ************************* Well I’m still pluggin’ away at the low carb stuff and I feel great! I really do. I haven’t had too many cravings, which really really SHOCKS me! I seriously OD’ed on sugar last week and I was expecting MEGA withdrawals. But Continue Reading…
Sorry for the Whiplash!
First off, I’m still goin’ strong on my low carb diet and I have no plans to quit! Yay! However, I have some thoughts I want to share………….. I gotta say I’m really sorry I’m not the perfect example of health ALL THE TIME!! I really really strive to live a healthy lifestyle, but I still really struggle with finding my equilibrium. It is tough! I do know a few people who seem to eat well all the time and exercise insane amounts of hours every week! They make it look effortless. I AM NOT ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE. I Continue Reading…
Happy Monday and Low Carb Fare
I hope you are all having a wonderful Monday! I may be a little weird, but I really love Mondays! I think Sunday nights are depressing, but Mondays are motivating! I really welcome the structure and productivity! Woo hoo. Well, I’m still goin’ strong with my little low carb diet. It really hasn’t been too hard. I’m glad because I was expecting the first few days to be tourture! I’ve definitely had my moments of weakness, but they don’t seem to last too long. I just keep telling myself I’m only going to be super duper strict for 2-3 weeks….so Continue Reading…
