I’m a miserable mess right now on a seemingly continuous downward spiral. My period is due soon, so I’m semi-sure my emotional ineptitude is partly due to that horror and why I’ve been such a diva (when really, that’s not a part of my personality — I’m typically easy going!) I haven’t gained (thank goodness) […]

Ok. it’s been over a month and I am definitely feeling the effects of the Paleo lifestyle. I don`t want to say diet anymore because it denotes something that is temporary, a quick fix to loose weight. This is however a change in the way I`m living and giving my body the food that it […]

I’m just going to spill the beans at the start: I was really bad this week. I turned 30 a few days ago, and it was incredible! I spent the last few days before my big day having cocktail celebrations with my good friends, surprise dinners at awesome restaurants all around town and blew out […]

That’s how I look as of today, the start of Week Five of this journey. I’m a simple pound lighter than I was the last time I checked in, so little by little I’m making progress. Before I get too deep into this, I want to take a moment to address the whole “camera phone […]

Breakfast has always been my most difficult meal to plan around. I know that most people would say that it is dinner, but that is easy for me. What makes breakfast so difficult is the fact that my morning schedule is so tightly timed that I barely have time to eat unless I do so […]

Saying it’s been a tough two weeks is one of the biggest understatements I’ve ever made. The past two weeks have been hell. I’m not even sure where to start. Firstly, I’m up 2 pounds, which takes me to my starting point. And, my car broke down. Again. Not only did it break down, it […]

This week, I developed a smoothie habit. This development has caused great controversy in my home, because my fiancé argues that once you convert fruit into a liquid, it is no longer free (points-wise). However, I argue that, as long as I do not juice the fruit (thereby removing all of its fiber) and do […]

My weight loss has been slow, and rather painful. Well, until this week that is! I have been hearing a lot about intermittent fasting lately and I have to say it had me intrigued right away. For those who have not heard of this way of eating, let me fill you in. There’s many different […]

Well I am down one pound this week. Like I said before I am grateful for that. It has not been an easy week. First off, I should say that the film I am supposed to do has been delayed a week. I received the phone call for that mid-week. That is not an unusual […]

Weekly Weight loss Update: –1.5 lbs Inches lost: Chest: 3/4″; Waist: 3/4″; Arms: 0″; Hips: 1″; Thighs: 0″ This week’s challenge: Staying motivated to eat a truck load of veggies and beating those alarm clock blues. I’ve just about had it with the field full of veggies this program requires. I credit veggies with filling […]
