Why is that?? I feel like I can stop drinking enough water today when I'm almost never thirsty! Am I going to have a big ole bloated…

I'm ready to own this.
On June 10, 2012, I purchased a gym membership and made a commitment to live a healthier life. I gave up fast food (which I ate more often than I realized) and decided to take on the challenge of clean eating. Since then, I have only lost 10 lbs, but I am proud of my loss. It may not be a lot of weight loss for one year,…

Sugar Free Until Valentines Day
So.. I know I should probably always aspire to stay away from sugar, but I have a serious sweet tooth. Even when I'm eating my cleanest, I still usually squeeze in some chocolate once a day at some point. But, habits like that have to change. I'm challenging myself to quit sugar cold turkey (starting tomorrow) for the next…

I just can't seem to eat enough!
To lose weight, I am supposed to eat 1200 calories a day and burn off a minimum of 535 calories. I've been burning 500+ calories the last few days, but I keep finishing my day with 300 or more calories remaining. I know I can have something like nuts to fulfill the calories, but I really don't think I can eat 336 calories…
