Whelp, the time has officially come to bid adieu to blogging in this space. I started Gettin’ My Healthy On in 2012, and it’s been one of the most inspiring passion projects I’ve ever done. As I near the 10-year mark, though, maintaining a personal blog just isn’t something I care to prioritize anymore. Granted,…

Merry Christmas! We have big plans to do nothingness today, and I’m pretty excited about it. In lieu of larger gifts, we tend to just put together stockings for each other. So we’ll be exchanging those this morning, as well as enjoying homemade cinnamon rolls and mimosas (coffee first, though, #priorities)—perfect morning if you ask…
8-Year Blogging Anniversary
It’s fun to see yearly milestones get into the bigger numbers—work anniversaries, relationships, birthdays (just me?), and so on. It shows how far you’ve come and allows you to reflect on how you’ve grown. Plus, who doesn’t like another reason to celebrate?! In a couple days, I’ll be reaching the 8-year mark of blogging, and…
Top 19 Posts of 2019
The year (and decade?!) are just about over, which means it’s time for me to look back at the top posts from 2019! Just like the blog topics highlighted in my Top 18 Posts of 2018, this year was another mix of recipes and healthy lifestyle tips. Inspirational quotes/posts were also popular this year—the ones…
Why I Have Ads on My Site
One of the most annoying parts of visiting blogs is being bombarded with advertisements everywhere—in the sidebars, between paragraphs of content, and sometimes popping up out of nowhere. I get it, and I completely agree. There’s nothing I hate more than being startled by a video ad playing, especially when I can’t even FIND where…
7-Year Blogging Anniversary
This weekend marks a big milestone for me: it’s the 7th anniversary of Gettin’ My Healthy On! And what’s even crazier is I’m really close to hitting my 1,000th post—something I can’t even fathom right now. I’ve learned a lot in every season of my blogging career—from picking up technical and creative skills to discovering…
Top 18 Posts of 2018
Before the year is officially over, I wanted to share my annual roundup of top blog posts—AKA the most visited posts I’ve shared since the start of 2018. If you didn’t read my post last year, make sure to stop by my Top 17 Posts in 2017. If you’re curious about what all people found…
6-Year Blogging Anniversary
Six years, 885 posts, and thousands of hours later, Gettin’ My Healthy On is still alive and well! Today marks my sixth year of blogging, and it still shocks me sometimes that the blog I was imagining while being bored at an internship post college would somehow turn into several years of writing about my…

We’re in the home stretch! Monday marks the start of 2018, and 2017 is about to be old news. I’m stoked because I’ll be ringing in the new year with some of my closest friends and family. As this year comes to an end, I wanted to take a post to look back at some…
5-Year Blogging Anniversary
Aww yiss—I have officially been blogging for 5 whole years! …and then some because I totally forgot the anniversary when it happened 3 weeks ago. Granted, I forgot last year, too, so it’s been a year since then. I’m really good at this haha. The fact I’ve been blogging for 5 years feels like a…
Top 16 Posts of 2016
As 2016 comes to a close, I’ve been looking back at the many posts I’ve shared over this past year—some of which seemed to really resonate with people. As I browsed through my list of most-visited posts I’ve written since January, I knew of a handful that really caught people’s eyes, but there were definitely…
4-Year Blogging Anniversary
Funny story: On Tuesday night, I was lying in bed trying to get to sleep and then, out of absolutely nowhere, it hit me: I straight-up forgot that I hit the four-year mark of blogging recently. Every year at the beginning of August, I share a post about my “blogaversary.” The fact I missed this…
Top 15 Posts of 2015
As the band Europe would say, “It’s the final countdoooown,” …to the end of the year. Just like THAT, 2015 is almost over. Before the year is officially over, though, I want to take a post to reflect on all the happenings over here at Gettin’ My Healthy On. So today, I’m sharing some of…
Lately I’ve Been…
Happy Friyay!! Even though it’s only been a 4-day workweek, I’m more than ready for this weekend to get started. On the agenda: happy hour tonight, a beer event tomorrow, and nothing Sunday. In other words, it should be a pretty good weekend. I wanted to do something fun for today’s post, so I ‘m…
3-Year Blogging Anniversary
And just like that…I’ve reached the three-year mark of blogging. I’ve shared some posts I’m really proud of…and others I’m a little tempted to delete because they’re so bad. Regardless of how I feel about them, I’ve published a total of 516 posts, and that my friends, is a lot of time spent talking about…
