One Girl No Diet: Rants: Post-Holidays Fat Talk →
onegirlnodiet:
There are two main reasons I hate going to the gym after the holidays:
It’s crowded full of people who are starting their new year’s resolutions/post-holiday diets
Said people won’t shut up about why they’re starting said diets.
You know, people. STFU. I workout all year and I go to the…

I figured out my next tattoo...
For a while I’ve debated getting the state of California tattooed around the scar from a previous surgery on my left boob (I had a tumor removed) but I never went through with it. However, today as I was browsing through various ink projects online I came across the idea to get the state of California inked on my left foot and the outline of Long Island on my right foot. The symbolism behind...

1. You can’t be crippled by an emotion unless you’re the one doing it to yourself.
2. Just because your issues have a name it doesn’t mean you’re aware of them.
3. Assholes are gonna violate the social contract. You can come to expect it. You can even be prepared for it, but don’t ever get used to it.

On New Years Eve I’m headed to Spain to depart on a cruise to Italy, Malta, Greece, Turkey, and Egypt. I am BEYOND stoked for this trip! It is a belated 21st birthday present from my parents. I didn’t ask for a single thing this Christmas holiday, but to my surprise this morning, I awoke to a wrapped box and envelope. Inside contained a brand new 32GB IPod touch and $100 in...

Today
As soon as my feet touched my floor from my bed, I dropped and did 17 burpees.
I went to Barnes & Nobles, found the Beatles LOVE album (last one) & frolicked around the store looking for a good book to read for my trip to Europe. The book hunt was unsuccessful, but I did read through this whole controversial book the paleo community has been talking about “The 4 hour body” -...
annoyed
my appetite has been ravenous.
my workout ethic has been less than enthusiastic.
this needs to change.

Winter Break Freedom!
After a long absence from reality due to finals and the tragic passing of my dog Snuggalino, life has taken in a momentary sigh of relief that is known as “Winter Break”. I had my last final this morning and to add to this week of hell, I have been sick with what appears to be developing into walking pneumonia. It absolutely sucks but at least my diets been good.
I am literally...

Post WOD:
2 Bison Medallions
nibbles of some leftover turkey
roasted brussel sprouts
5:30 PM - 2 orders of steamed shrimp & broccoli (no sauce, no rice)
7:30 PM - about 5-6 lb of Turkey Breast (probably even less because it was dry)
The added calories of tonight’s feeding will do me good.

UGG Scalloped Moccasins = My new obsession
I’m a Vibram faithful, but when it comes to going out and working the crowd at work or with friends, I put aside my monkey shoes and put on these bad boys:
I got these last weekend up at the UGG outlet mall in Wrentham Village outlets in Mass. I didn’t get this particular color but rather opted for the lighter sand color instead. Let me tell you this: these shoes are not only super...

Your Weight is a Indicator of Your Health
Your weight is an indicator of your health. It is one indicator among a great many, and a less important indicator than many of the others. It is this and nothing more than this.
Your weight is not an indicator of your value as a person. Your weight does not tell you whether or not you deserve to be happy. Your weight does not tell you if you are worthy of love or respect. Your weight...
