So before I had my eating epiphany, I really WAS trying to make an effort to eat more at home, and not just Lean Cuisine frozen meals. Hey, laugh all you want – as a single chick, Lean Cuisines are pretty awesome and convenient. When they were on sale for $2 each, I would leave…
I’m not gonna lie – it’s been a rough week for me. After losing weight and having my body go askew, I’m still dealing with the repercussions. The doctor had me go down to 100mcg of synthroid about a week ago. This week, I am a ZOMBIE. ZOMBIE! I can barely move, I don’t want…
After drastically changing my eating habits to lose weight, including eating a lot more vegetables and animals in original format, I have started to become REALLY aware of the foods we eat. Bottom line: HOLY SH!T THERE IS SUGAR EVERYWHERE! Wanting to get INSIDE ME. Get me all jiggy and jiggly. Sugar is a secret…
I’ve had a strange series of health events in the past few months. Sequence of events: 9/17/2012 I got a bikini for a weekend trip and realized I had gotten chubby. I got the largest size this bikini came in and it didn’t really fit. A few days later, went on a ketogenic diet and…

FYI I now have a whole site dedicated to low carb meals over at LowCarbKitty.com! I attempted to make ratatouille the other day in the pressure cooker. It came out OK – I ate it over cauliflower-rice. I’ll post the recipe here in case you want to try it, but note my modifications. Took the…
Mom was so impressed with my change in eating habits and attempts at cooking that she sent me a pressure cooker (6 qt) as an early Christmas gift. FYI I now have a low carb recipe site over at LowCarbKitty.com! I have never even seen one, much less used one, so last night was my…

While flipping through Road Bike Magazine a few months ago, I came across the ‘gear for chicks’ section they had. All I could see was this beautiful, sleek model wearing suspender shorts….standing on her toes. WHY was she standing on her toes? Was she emulating wearing high heels? In bike suspender shorts? It was so…strange.…
