Looking back at my last entry, it's so satisfying to be in an internal and physical space that is miles away from where I was when I wrote that post. It's very rewarding to know I've done that for myself and am continuing to do so!Since that post, I've gotten myself a little job out …
Category: That Healthy Thing
Ughhhh
Maybe it's something about the summer, but I feel like my entire body and brain have just given up on everything and I'm dragging myself along resolutely like a tired parent in the grocery store with a petulant screaming child. It's the part of things where I feel zero motivation, zero impetus, zero interest in …
*dust dust*
Well, uh...hi! I'm back, I think. Trauma definitely has a way of stunting everything you want to accomplish in life, doesn't it? There were a lot of life changes that were squeezed into that absence of mine, and maybe someday I will reveal them in flashback-style life lesson type moments. Or maybe I'll just let …
State of the Me
I suppose honesty time is well overdue in this quarter of my life. There's a lot to sort out and put in this place or that, but writing it all out in the mishmash that I seem to specialize in certainly helps me feel less burdened, if nothing else. Apologies for the circles everyone's about …
Things that change
As of today I haven't had any fast food for five months. In that time I've lost close to forty pounds, though I still have a lot to go. I'm trying to take small steps so that I don't get discouraged by how long this is taking. I am definitely a product of this instant …
Brushin’ Off the Dust
Woo, it's been a little while, hasn't it? Recently I've been grappling with something that always seems to be lurking in the ring, ready for me to grapple with it. Emotional eating. I used to think to myself "I don't emotionally eat! I eat when I'm hungry, that's it." I was not very in tune …
Everything in moderation. You know, for some people
I am all about moderation in things. Nothing is wholly good, or wholly bad, the middle of the road isn't a terrible place to be. Sometimes you need a little darkness with your light, whatever it is, moderation isn't bad. Not in general, anyway. Sometimes, for some people, though, it doesn't work out. By some …

A…Food Explorer?
I feel like I'm discovering new things every day in the world of food. Monday, for instance, I learned from my roommate how I could make smoothies with ease. And now, it's a bit embarrassing to say, I've become obsessed. As in, I just got back from a grocery store run where about 40% of …
Tools of the trade
I have discovered the hardest part of going fast food free is my workday. That's when the temptation to buy fast food is at its highest. My workplace is directly across from a Carl's Junior, and that star smirks at me every day. I can practically hear the smarmy bastard saying "Come on innnn. I …
Just a fast food girl, living in a caloric world
Let's talk about a journey today. No, not Journey. Small town girls living in lonely worlds. Do they even have midnight trains? I'm sure they do, I'm not worldly enough to know for sure, though. Anyway, the journey I mean is the one to better health. You could call it a weight loss journey, or …
