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 the most visited posts from this past year!
If you look through the following list, you might notice a trend as to what people seem to fancy over here, so you can definitely expect some of that and more in the future.
A big THANK YOU to my readers—both old and new. Blogging wouldn’t be nearly as fun without the comments, emails, and social media interaction. Hope you stick around for what I have in store for 2016!
Until then…
