45 calorie Pineapple Mini Muffins!
I just made this recipe tonight, and it makes 42 mini muffins. I think they'd be great for breakfast because they have a bunch of fruit and are made with whole wheat. You could totally add raisins, nuts, spices, or replace the pineapple with peaches. It's really versatile and pretty healthy for a baked good. Pictures and…

Grazers, Snackers, All-day eaters...etc.
I graze. All day. I am never actually hungry. My stomach never growls because I am ALWAYS eating. I usually don't log it in my diary, because it makes me feel awful to see the red, but I keep a tally in my head. Sometimes I graze 400 calories worth of random stuff: handful of banana chips, handful of chocolate raisins, a…

Clean Eating questions
So, I'd like to get into clean eating. I feel like refined sugars and bad carbs are taking over my life. Today I couldn't stop eating this carrot cake that I had made and then a Mimosa muffin and a bunch of other terrible stuff that is full of bad chemicals and crap! Does anyone have any websites/books that have helped…

Workout Builder!
I thought this was a really cool site! And it's free :) Just choose between muscle, fat loss, or health and longevity and then the area you want to target. Plus put in either home/gym and the time! Seems like a good idea for those days when you just don't want to leave the house, but need to work out…

Mile Time NSV!!
Today I ran 2 miles in 24 minutes. That is a 12 minute mile!! That is the fastest I've ever gone. I just kept pushing myself, saying that I could run just a bit more. Or only walking for 45 seconds (instead of 2min) and then running again! :) I've been giddy all day just thinking about it and I think I'll go another 2…

After a fruit fast
So, I'm on my 3rd and final day of a fruit fast. So far I've lost 3 pounds and I'm excited to weigh myself tomorrow morning for the final result! However for these past days my total caloric intake has been around 700-800cal. I know that's not very good, but it's hard to consume 1200 calories on just fruit (I have been…

Low Carb Lunch, tuna!
So I'm doing this no carb (low carb..more like it) diet every other day to help get me past my plateau.. It worked on Saturday, but then I had Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles on Sunday (any californians out there? woo!) and it pretty much ruined it. So today I was pretty adamant on sticking to it and creating something…

Body Fat Percentage Stays.
So when I started this I was 153.5lbs and 38% body fat. I've been working out, keeping my calories right (most of the time) and I've definitely noticed when I put on my clothes and when I get on the scale. I'm down to 148lbs, however my body fat percentage remains. Actually it went up! I'm at 38.5% body fat now. What does…

Abs?? HELP!!
So I really want to work my abs because i want a flatter tummy. I've tried crunches, sit-ups, and the plank exercise but NONE seem to work. I did 100 crunches for 7 days in a row and i wasn't sore. Am I supposed to be sore? Or see any difference? I'll do 30 sit ups and the plank for 30 seconds, twice, and still I won't be…
