Hello there, It is FINALLY getting nice out here!! It’s about time!! My BF and his roommate decided to host a last-minute grill-out party! They provided the grill and everyone brought their own items to throw on it. There was the usual…hot dogs, burgers, steak (my BF made the BEST steak by the way) …but there…
Breakfast! The most IMPORTANT meal of the day!
Hello all, I just got excited about breakfast this morning and wanted to share my excitement. (Should be working on homework…but that can wait right??) I love peanutbutter. I could eat it every meal of every day. But I suppose if I did that…there would be no room for other healthy things 🙁 Here’s my…
Semi-Healthy Fudgy Oatmeal Cookies
Hey peeps, I really don’t know how people blog EVERY DAY!! Because when I blog, I not only post on my wall, but I mess with settings on my blog, read other blogs and pretty soon TWO HOURS have gone by and I realize I have a ton of homework to get done before bed…
Being out of town is NO EXCUSE to not work out!! :-)

The Marathon is sold out what??
Hey folks, I was going to do a half-marathon May 1st. I saw about a month and a half ago that the half-marathon was sold out and when I discussed this with my BF, he said we could still sign up for the full-marathon but just run the half. THEN a week or so later,…
My bod is such a rebel
February 26th (although I started this last week) With the change of the seasons, my body has decided to rebel again. I’m pretty sure it’s a cold…which is not awesome because those can linger! But with my immune system, I’m usually only out a week or so…depending on how much I rest. But it is…
Stitches! (week 5 of half-marathon training)
Okay I didn’t fall and have to get stitches or anything…yet, but I have been having issues with getting a “stitch in my side.” It is not only irritating and discouraging, but it can become very painful! My boyfriend suggested it was due to carbonated beverages…my two or three glasses of Diet Mountain Dew I…
