“I don’t understand how you can eat straight guacamole.” “I don’t understand how you can’t.” “I need something to eat it with, you know?” “It’s called a spoon.”

Last Wednesday we threw out everything in our house that wasn’t paleo friendly. On Friday I came down with a cough, and on Saturday I was laid up in bed for the entire day, only emerging to go to the bathroom and eat. Usually when I’m sick I crave super processed stuff: pop tarts, mac [...]

The end of my first Whole30 is two days away and Jason and I have talked more about food than we have about anything else over the course of February. We’ve come to the conclusion that we like the way we’re eating; we like the way it makes us feel and we like the results [...]

I finally feel better. My sinuses aren’t clogged all to hell and I can sleep without coughing my lungs out.

I have been a dairy fan–ice cream, butter, cottage cheese, yogurt–but am starting to realize that perhaps [...]

I just don’t have it in me lately. I don’t want to write or count calories or do anything, really. I’ve fallen behind on my Bible reading plan, missed a daily photo, haven’t kept up on blogs at all, and have absolutely no motivation. I’m just not feeling it. Whatever “it” is. Motivation? Willingness? Drive? [...]

December kind of got away from us in terms of eating well and sticking to our budget. We ate exactly one meal at home when Garrett and Emily were here, which means we a) spent more than we’d planned and b) consumed more than we’d planned. Enter the reinstatement of the weekly meal planning. The [...]

I have gained two pounds in the last two weeks and haven’t quite mustered up the motivation to start counting calories again. I’m living my life the way an “after” would, though I’m clearly a “before.” Hence the weight gain. Something I noticed when I wasn’t counting calories was how, most of the time, I [...]
