  • FDA Just Updated Labeling Terms For “Healthy” Foods

    Christina

    I don’t follow government guidelines when it comes to nutrition because I passionately care about my health. So imagine my surprise seeing the FDA’s recent update on what foods can be labeled as ‘healthy’ is actually legit! It’s not 100% solid, but it’s a huge improvement.  Not sure what took so long for them to… Read more

  • Trucking along….

    Christina

    Hormones are no joke.  The week before last, I was so down on myself. I made the mistake of stepping on a scale (at Publix, of course) for the first time since maybe October. I have been fitting better in my clothes lately and last month I was even able to wear something that hadn’t… Read more

  • Coffee

    Coffee

    Christina

    I know that coffee is a no-go for the carnivore and animal-based diets. I haven’t eliminated coffee from my diet, but I did cut down on it for several weeks. I used to drink it daily, more out of routine than necessity. My husband is a coffee drinker and it was just nice starting our… Read more

  • Filipino Pork Sinigang [Recipe]

    Filipino Pork Sinigang [Recipe]

    Christina

    I wanted to make sinigang but didn’t want to just use a packet because the packet contains some ingredients I’d rather just stay away from (MSG, caramel color, etc) if I can help it. I happened to find tamarind puree at my local health food store so I didn’t have to make an extra trip… Read more

  • #7DayAbChallenge

    Christina

    This week the Blogilates 7 Day Ab Challenge has commenced and since it coincides with my ovulation week (meaning I’m bounding in energy and motivation) I have committed to it. I am curious as to whether or not there’ll be a noticeable difference in my body composition after just 7 days. I am doubtful about… Read more

  • Salmon + Broccoli

    Christina

    It’s that time of year– Publix has fresh, wild-caught Alaskan sockeye salmon 😋 AAAAAAAAND it’s currently on sale for $9.99/lb as opposed to like $19.99/lb. Here in Florida we usually only have access to frozen wild sockeye salmon so this is a big deal. The texture of frozen fish is nothing near as good as… Read more

  • Green Chef

    Christina

    My husband and I have been using Green Chef for several months now and we love the variety that we get from it. I don’t think it was until 4 or 5 months in that we started to see repeat meals sprinkled in, though we are still receiving new ones. It would be so time… Read more
