Frosting for Breakfast: What Can a Therapeutic Dose of Coconut Oil Do for You?

I have two recipes to share…and unfortunately I had a hard time getting “good” pictures! Maybe it’s just because they aren’t pretty foods…or I just don’t have the right lighting at the time I’m photographing them. Whatever the case may be, please do not pass these by based on looks! (and I’ll try to get …

Asparagus, Mushrooms, and Roasted Red Peppers with Pesto (and a fitness update)

I’m not so great at posting veggie recipes—most of the veggie dishes I make are not actually recipes. I just throw things together and hope for the best. It’s usually good, but there’s no method to that madness. I did make something post-worthy (in my opinion) this week, though. Aparagus with Mushrooms and Roasted Red …

Feeding My Mitochondria, and Kicking Up My Metabolism in the Gym too…

I’m so glad I set this three-day challenge for myself. It’s so easy on my brain—generally when I set challenges, they’re complicated or they take a lot of thought and very specific effort (like schedules of what to eat when, etc.).

First thing’s first… I made donut holes that had no sugar added, and no grains. And they actually turned out amazingly well.

It’s Quite Simple, but Not Necessarily Easy—Take Charge and Change Your Life

Remember the old days when TVs didn’t have remotes? I remember when we first got a cable box that sat on top of the TV–it had a dial, and you had to get up to change it. I’m not sure when remotes appeared, but I sure don’t know anyone without one now! How torturous would …

Keep it Simple – Be Consistent – Get a Great Butt by Summer!

It’s true that you can’t spot reduce any area of your body by working out. I think I see people trying to do this most often by overdoing ab-work in an attempt to reduce the size of their midsections. The problem with that approach is (and I’m thinking more and more people do know this …

Two Days of the Elimination Diet – What I Ate

I promised several people I’d post what I eat in a day on the elimination diet. I’ve hesitated for a couple reasons. First, my elimination diet should not be yours! I don’t want people to copy what I’m doing–I’ve chosen what to include and exclude during this adventure based on what I already know about …
