  • I've done Whole30 a few times and I always really enjoy it. Physical benefits aside, it's a great mental reminder to be more conscious about all the "extra" stuff in food. I learn something each time. My day-to-day diet doesn't vary radically, really. I do drink alcohol fairly regularly and eat some grains, so maybe it's…
  • I work out with my SO almost every time. Sometimes we do the exact same thing, sometimes I wanna do a higher intensity workout as he prefers slower strong lift type stuff. We don't interact a ton while we workout, but he's always helpful if I have questions or feedback and vice versa. If we're climbing together we help…
  • I second Sun Warrior. Also Vega. Sun Warrior is a little chalkier, I usually blend it with stuff. Vega is great just in water though.
  • Log your normal everyday diet for a few days. Then look at where you can cut back without changing. For e.g - do you drink something higher in calories that you could remove? Do you tend to eat a snack everyday that you could skip and still feel ok? Make a few small changes. Then if you want to also change your diet to…
  • I had a really hard time meeting my protein goal too until recently. The only meat I really eat is fish and eggs. Right now I can hit it if I eat eggs in the am (two regular, two whites only), fish for either lunch or dinner and then I have a shake with almond milk and protein powder. That usually gets it where it needs to…
  • Its supposed to help with digestion because it has probiotics. Skip the dairy and sugar in the yogurt and go straight for the probiotics in supplement form. That, good fiber, water and exercise always keeps my digestion happy.
  • Everyone is different, but the standard is to eat one gram of protein per pound of body weight. So if you weigh 120 you'd eat 120 grams of protein. Ultimately being toned comes from eat at a calorie deficit.
  • I put on a pair of these little high waisted denim shorts that I bought in the fall during an after Summer sale and they fit! I bought them online and I was embarrassed because I had to swap them for a larger size in the store. Even the larger size felt kind of tight. Anyway yesterday they went on with a breeze and were so…
  • I live in TexMex heaven. I can walk to my favorite place. Chips, guac, margaritas and some fajitas...oh my. Sodium for dayyyyyyyys. I might indulge once a month with my best friend...but honestly the fat/carb/sodium/tequila hangover is good impetus to not indulge too often.
  • I try to eat a variety of fermented foods to promote healthy gut health. I like to add it to salads or veggie tacos.
  • Minimalist Baker!
  • I guess this is redundant now, but for what it's worth I really enjoy Blue Apron. I tried Hello Fresh as well, nothing really negative to say about it, didn't work well for me because I don't usually eat meat and their vegetarian options were mostly pasta/carb-based. But I have liked Blue Apron a lot. The recipes are…
  • I am 5'10" and I have these size small in "long". They are 100% worth the cost. Very hardy, never fall down and comfortable for working out. I adore them! https://www.victoriassecret.com/vs-sport/apparel-performance-bottoms/knockout-by-victoria-sport-high-rise-tight-victoria-sport?ProductID=314353&CatalogueType=OLS
  • This has nothing to do with strippers, but I do have a good character who visits my gym. I mostly work out in my apartment's gym (which is actually really nice). I'd say at least twice a month this dude wanders through in a white, terrycloth robe holding a glass of red wine. No idea where he's going. He always looks so…
