I’ve just noticed something…

Something rather big as well.  I’ve noticed a huge impact on the appearance of my skin over the past month.  In the past 4 years or so, I’ve gone from having virtually no skin blemishes and no dark circles under my eyes, as well as zero discoloration in my skin, to having clusters of acne [...]

I just got done…

playing the 20 minute Beginner class for Zumba on the Wii. Can I just say I’m now exhausted? Oh. My. God. It was crazy, my calves are BURNING!!! I will say, my heart rate was definitely up, I was literally dripping sweat everywhere. I had absolutely no clue what I was doing, and did it [...]

I’ve been doing some super awesome thinking and…

I think I want to start doing recordings of me cooking my Atkins stuff.  This will include things that I’ve been making off of the site, as well as my own personal staple concoctions.  I know my kitchen isn’t ideal for recorded cooking, but when Eric and I move, I’ll have an open bar to [...]

Breakfast

It’s omelet time!!!!

Jamie Oliver

Can I just say that you rock my face off? I pretty much watched the entire first season of Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution YESTERDAY, after seeing the first 2 episodes of this season where he’s trying to get through to LA.  Now, I know what school lunches are like, I remember them well.  Some of [...]

Okay, so far so good.

I was so excited to get to eat fruit starting today, that so far, I’ve had fruit with both of my main meals. Breakfast, I regret to say, I did not get a picture of, it was cheesy scrambled eggs, with a half a cup of sliced strawberries and 2 Tbsps of half and half [...]

Official shout out to my food loving home-slices

Such a long title, but I want to know who all out there that reads this, has started getting healthy this year, and what motivated you to do so?  What things are you doing in your every day life to improve your well being?  Are you eating better?  Are you getting a little extra physical [...]

Almost…….

So, my size 20′s no longer fit.  They are officially too big.  I’m still going to wear them mind you, they don’t completely fall off of me without a belt, but there’s a good 2 inches that I can fold over.  It’s also almost time for me to order a new pair of Marcus pants [...]

Okay, okay…

So, I’ll admit I was a little terrified to try this when I first bought it.  The Atkins baking mix.  I’m in phase 2 now, so that means there are a few more choices that I can have for food, and this stuff is one of them.  A friend of mine that tried the Atkins [...]
