I wanted to stop in and wish you all a wonderful and happy holiday season! I’ll be blogging again after the new year and look forward to sharing 2012 with you all.

Yesterday morning started with my usual: one egg and one egg white sprinkled with nutritional yeast inside a piece of toasted pita bread. I’ve been having pretty much the same exact breakfast f...

I woke up yesterday morning bummed that Halloween was over. There were so many trick-or-treaters out the night before and we had a blast giving out candy to them all. The best costume of the night wa...
On Friday night my sister, her boyfriend, and my nephew came over to carve pumpkins and watch movies. I wanted to make a few Halloweeny recipes and I had quite a few bookmarked. I found a couple that...

I get a lot of questions from people asking what to do once they’ve finished Ripped In 30 and I thought I’d share what I did once I completed the program. I did the entire thirty days of ...
