Your bikini is calling you. Do you hear it? It’s screaming at you from the deep, dark corner of that drawer you haven’t opened in months. It wants out. It’s seen those beautiful bright rays of sunshine creeping into your bedroom windows lately, and it knows… it knows that you’re going to have to get […]

Showin’ some love to my Paleo peeps
Din Din, Get In My Belly!, Quest for Skinny
If you aren’t “paleo,” and if you don’t belong to a Crossfit gym… you know you’re curious. Crossfit, paleo… it’s EVERYWHERE, right?

Well, maybe that’s wishful thinking. […]
My Quest for Skinny…
Get In My Belly!, Morning Munchies, Quest for Skinny
So after taking a look at what I’ve posted on this blog thus far, it occurred to me, that if you didn’t actually know me, you might assume I am a giant 6 ton gorilla. In fact, I do TRY and eat relatively healthy most of the time. “Try” being the key word there. I’d […]
