July Foodie Penpal Reveal

ShareFoodie Penpals day is essentially Christmas once a month, with food, making it some of the happiest days of the year.

Weigh In Week One Million

ShareHi friends, I hope your day is going a little less sleepy than mine. I just can’t seem to get moving and I’m pretty sure I hit the snooze button over 20 times this morning. It’s a good thing Pat would be able to sleep though a bus crashing into the apartment. How was your [...]

Progress

ShareI saw this on Twitter this morning, and it was exactly what I needed to see: source I- and I know many of you do this too- sometimes focus on comparing where I am right now and where I want to be. Instead, I should be thinking about where I was compared to where I [...]

My morning started with sleeping through an entire hour of my alarm clock going off (#fail), then being very relieved when my dad called to see if we could push running from 6am to 7am. He had to pick [...]

My Relationship with Pants.

ShareI don’t own pants. Okay, I lied to you already, I do own pants because recently Sarah donated some clothing to the “Colleen Has No Clothes That Fit” foundation. So let me rephrase, I don’t wear pants. I end up having this conversation a lot with people who are getting to know me, and after [...]

Losing Weight Without Moving

ShareHow I kept losing weight without exercise: Weight loss for the last two months has been slow and a little rocky. I wasn’t able to exercise so I had to monitor myself very closely. I did not want to slide backwards- I’ve worked too hard to let one thing get in my way. I’ve told [...]
