Feeling Faint?
For the last few mornings - maybe a week - I've been waking up feeling extremely faint. It is only in the mornings. I'm very tired and dizzy, and I feel like I'm going to pass out. This morning I had to sit down before I even left my bedroom. I always make sure to eat breakfast as soon as I wake up, but minutes after…

Your Life Dream
Ever since I was a little girl, I have wanted to be on Jeopardy, or Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, or The Weakest Link...I've just always wanted to be on a game show. Tonight I'm taking the first step toward that dream (or second, since the first was registering and passing the pretest) and I'm auditioning for Jeopardy.…

Metabolic Typing
Has anybody tried eating specifically for their metabolism or tried the metabolic typing diet? I took the test about a year ago and discovered that I'm a protein type metabolism, and it really helped me understand my appetite, cravings, and the way my body works.

Learning How to Cook
I've lived on my own for about 8 months now, but I'm just now getting the courage to use my kitchen. I've had my fair share of disasters which eventually led to my parents banning me from the kitchen. People may think "Oh, it can't possibly be that bad." but I assure you that it is. I've summarized my worst of the worst.…

I Cleaned ALL the Things!!!!
I like to clean. When I'm cleaning my apartment I'm not only clearing out mess and clutter, but I also clear my mind. I do a quick 10 second pick up every night and a deep clean every Saturday, but lack of time has prevented it from happening lately. I decided to just drop everything and clean today. I cleaned like a…

Picky Eater
Hey everyone! I officially started my healthy life changes around November/December, and I'll give you a little background about my habits before. I was eating sugary and salty snacks all the time, mostly because I have a very strong sweet tooth. Due to a busy college lifestyle and lacking any and all finesse in the…
