Pizza is automatically healthy because it has a little bit of all the main food groups. The sauce is made from tomatoes which is a veggie/fruit. Cheese is dairy. The crust is made from flour which comes from wheat which is a grain. …right? Okay, so that logic can be flawed sometimes…or a lot. But…

April Favorites
Big things happened in April (i.e. moving), and bigger things are happening in May! Hint: we may or may not be celebrating our 1st wedding anniversary. No biggie. 😉 Since we’ve been pretty busy with the move these past weeks, I don’t have a lot of super creative favorites to share. However, the food scene…
How I Did LiveFit Trainer Without a Gym
When I was first considering the LiveFit Trainer, I knew I would be doing it without a gym. Since I wouldn’t have the equipment the program revolved around using, I knew it would be a challenge to find alternative exercises using dumbbells or other at-home equipment. Well good news. If you want to do LiveFit…
How to Make a Buddha AKA Nourish AKA Macro Bowl
Not sure if you’ve noticed, but there’s this trend that has been gaining speed lately. Some call them Buddha Bowls; some call them Nourish Bowls; others call them Macro Bowls. Call them what you want, but they’re making me feel inspired AF to eat healthy. These nourishing bowls are packed with healthy foods and have…
My Results and Thoughts on LiveFit Trainer

If you’re curious how each phase went, specifically, you…
Green Beans, Potatoes, and Sausage One-Pot Meal
Make this easy one-pot meal by combining green beans, potatoes, and kielbasa sausage for a simple yet flavorful dinner. Green beans hold a special place in my heart. I grew up eating fresh ones from my dad’s garden as well as my grandma’s. I was spoiled and definitely did not take it for granted. Anytime…
Snapshots from Moving Weekend
Ohhh what a weekend it has been! We’ve been in full packing/moving mode over here, and it has been quite exhuasting—physically and mentally. It’s weird to feel relieved that it’s Monday, but that’s exactly how we feel. The bulk of our things have been moved (way too many things…like how have we possibly acquired this…
LiveFit Trainer Phase 3 Recap
Today is a magical day!! Not only is it Friday, but it’s also the day we get the keys to the condo we just found out we got (read: we’re moving). Oh, and I completed the last workout in the third and final phase of the LiveFit bodybuilding program!! These last four weeks have been…different….
60-Minute Cardio HIIT Circuit Workout
It’s the 12th and final week of my journey following the LiveFit Trainer bodybuilding program! I’m excited it’s nearing its end, but I’m also planning to start some sort of new workout program after this. Not sure what that’ll be yet, but I like having weight-focused workouts already set-up to just power through without too…
