August 2, 2011

Ever have trouble with your headphones falling out of your ears while you’re running or otherwise working out?  Perhaps you get tired of having to pull out an earphone every time you want to cross the street because you need to listen for cars passing by.  Do your earbuds annoy you simply because one of […]

A Change of Perspective +Meatless Monday

August 1, 2011

Today has been…well…let say interesting.  Nothing about it has been bad; in fact, most of it has been pretty good, but it seems that a week and a half before an out-of-town wedding followed by a long, far away honeymoon just takes more work than I expected.  I also got particularly frustrated today working on […]

Ode to Whole Foods: Wedding Madness

July 31, 2011

Okay, so I didn’t actually write an ode to Whole Foods, but I feel like I owe that to them right now.  I’m learning a lesson these days: there’s a reason that so many people who plan destination weddings don’t plan an immediate or large honeymoon.

July 28, 2011

I want to preface this post with a few reminders: 1. This is not a blog about weight loss.  It’s about learning to live a healthy lifestyle, which generally results in weight loss, at least initially. 2. I am not a doctor, a registered dietician, or any other medical professional with the training and knowledge to tell […]

Rethinking My Running Hatred

July 26, 2011

Two weeks after “starting” Couch-to-5k, here I am, rethinking my running hatred.  Check out “Runnning is for Crazy People” for a run-down (ha!) on my distaste for running.  After that one post about running, well, I didn’t do it anymore.  It was unintentional, but this little thing happened… It got HOT!  Really hot.  I’ve never […]
