Heart Palpitations? Is this normal?
So I have been eating clean for just over 2 months now. No 'cheating' at all. The last 3 days I have eaten some chips, and each time I eat them I end up with heart palpitations afterwards for a few hours. It's like my body is rejecting the junk food. Anyone else experience this? I read that high carb and high sugar foods…

Lacking the drive
So I began my transition about a month ago. I went from being extremely sedentary and eating TONS of junk food to working out 5 days a week and eating a healthy, balanced diet. This lasted 3 weeks...

Quinoa
Today, for the first time ever, I decided to finally make some quinoa with my dinner. To rinse it, I didn't have a strainer small enough, so I used a coffee filter instead (hey, it worked!).

The Chealthy Challenge
I'm super excited!! Tomorrow I begin The Chealthy Challenge! Something I thought of over the weekend and decided to put it into action. It's not a diet, it's my own personal experiment. Yesterday I read a thread regarding eating healthy on a budget and that prompted me to create the Chealthy Challenge. I'm sure this has…

The Meal Challenge
So here I am, new to this and almost completed week 1. Now I am sitting here trying to plan my meals and create my grocery list. And I'm stuck... I don't want to keep eating the same thing everyday, eventually I will get bored of it and start looking at more unhealthy choices. I also want to cut my grocery bill in half, as…

New & Determined
Morning! My name is Melissa, I'm 30 years old from Ontario, Canada. For the last 10 months I was in a state of hibernation (for lack of a better term) minus work I did absolutely nothing but sit at home and play video games!

Counting Calories.... Is it really necessary?
Hello! I find the task of counting calories so daunting. I mean... Is it really necessary? I eat extremely healthy, I have cut 99% of fat, (bad) carbs, and sugars from my diet. I eat no junk food at all. Here is my typical Monday-Friday: I drink water all day long (minus my morning coffee that I cannot function without -…
