If you weren’t already aware, Sunday is Active Nation Day – a single day dedicated to women getting active to promote healthy living. The yearly event was created by Lorna Jane, who is an Aussie designer of women’s fitness apparel. The essence of Lorna Jane and her brand goes way past workout clothes though: “When people…
My Favorite Fall Things
My favorite season has been spring for the longest time. Flowers begin to bloom; the days get warmer; and the horrific cold winter is coming to an end. Well move over, spring, I officially miss fall the most. Born and raised in Illinois, I had the pleasure of experiencing every season to, more or less,…
Fall Recipe Roundup: 10 Festive Dishes to Start the Season
Tomorrow is the first day of fall. In honor of this, I’ve compiled a list of fall-themed recipes that I’ve shared in the past. The longer I’m here in San Diego, the more I miss the cool weather and the colorful leaves falling on the ground. Since it’s in the high 70s / low 80s…
My Favorite Things
So it rained yesterday here in San Diego… I feel like every time it rains, it’s also still sunny. It’s quite confusing. But yay rainbows! After my horrible commute home after work, which was doubled thanks to flooding and traffic lights out, I came home to quite the interesting sight. Guess who didn’t shut their…
Two-Ingredient Protein Waffle
Breakfast food is the best food — morning or night. That is just a fact. Ish. I’m pretty much always down for breakfast foods, be it pancakes, eggs, breakfast burrito, or today’s recipe. Unfortunately, when I make brinner a lot of the time, it’s typically pancakes topped with sugary syrup — aka not the most…
Skinnygirl Nutrition Bars Review & Giveaway {Closed}
The following post is sponsored by FitFluential LLC on behalf of Skinnygirl. Skinnygirl Snack Swap Campaign Interesting fact: About a quarter of the average American’s daily caloric intake comes from snacking. If you’re like me, you need several snacks throughout the day to tide you over between meals. If you’re trying to be healthy, though,…

Before I get into today’s post, I’d like to announce the winners of the Quest protein bar giveaway! Congrats to Courtney F. and Elle! I’ve already sent the emails to the winners, but thanks to everyone that entered. 🙂 Second order of business: I wanted to share a little workout I did on Saturday –…
Aloha Run 5K Recap
We spent our Sunday morning running the Aloha Run 5K, and it went by in a flash! That’s probably because we’re such fast runners though. (And by we, I mean Matt. He friggin won 3rd in his age group of 25-29. #rockstar) It was the 2nd annual Aloha Run, and it seemed very well put…
Deconstructed Granola Yogurt
Greek yogurt is one of my favorite protein-packed snacks. However, eating it everyday gets quite boring, which is what led me to discovering today’s recipe. I only buy 0%, fat-free Greek yogurt because all the flavored varieties seem to be packed with sugar. Plus, having plain yogurt makes it more versatile, allowing me to cook…
A Few of My Favorite Things
So apparently I have a 5k in four days… It’s a bit ridiculous how few miles I have run within the past couples months. I ran 3.5 miles on Saturday, and that was significant compared to all my other runs that have been on the treadmill. Because of hot yoga, I didn’t run as much…
So This One Time I Did Bikram Hot Yoga…
Bikram yoga is a type of hot yoga where you perform stretching, balancing, and breathing exercises during a 90-minute class in a room that is set to about 104 degrees with humidity at 40%. It’s similar to normal yoga, but you feel like you’re going to die the whole time. A few weeks ago, a…
Quest Products Review + Protein Bar Giveaway! {Closed}
You guys… I think I’m becoming a protein bar junkie. Quest Nutrition sent me quite the variety pack of products recently, and I’m excited to finally share my experience with them all! First, I will start with… Quest Protein Bars I ate a protein bar for a mid-morning snack at work most days, and it…
My Favorite Things + Pushups & Pullups Workout
Some of the best workouts are the ones that don’t require any equipment. You can do them at home or even while traveling. Today’s workout is not one of those. If you’ve got the exercise equipment, then you might as well use it. After my P90X experience, I was left with some upper body definition…
Well This Is Going to Be Embarrassing…
So Matt and I signed up for a 5k that’s in a few weeks… We even got some his and hers coconut bras and grass skirts for it… The Aloha Run is a 5k run/walk that comes here to San Diego and features Polynesian music, drummers, hula dancers, and some surf-themed bands. Matt knows some…
My Favorite Things + Get Ripped Ab Circuit
Even though I got sick of doing the same ab workout three days a week for 10 weeks of P90X, I also liked how good of a workout it was. To mimic the awesomeness that is Ab Ripper X, I created the below ab circuit. It takes about 10 minutes to go through twice, and…
