For the past few years Matt and I followed a variation of the Whole30 program for the month of January. After the holidays, we really look forward to resetting with a little detox. We’ve also tried Faster Way to Fat Loss and while we did see results, I about lost my mind trying to keep …
Diet + Exercise
Last January Matt and I followed a variation of the Whole30 program, and not to sound dramatic but it really was life changing! We absolutely loved it and had never felt better. Our sleep improved. Our energy increased. We both got down to our goal weight. And overall we just felt great. So we’re doing …
At the end of each year, Matt and I always end up a few pounds heavier than we started at the beginning of the year. By the last week of December we are usually pretty anxious for January for a fitness reset. Last January we did Whole30 and loved it. We were planning to do …
We made it to our very last week of Whole30! Thank goodness. As much as we love this diet we are definitely starting to fall off the bandwagon a bit (ahem, weekends). Once this week is over I think we’ll transition to the paleo diet! We have been really happy with our results though. We …
We just completed week 2 of Whole30 and have never felt better. Also, I cannot thank you all enough for the insane amount of emails I received with amazing recipes and tips. If you haven’t already, I highly suggest peeking at my Whole30 pin board as I’ve tried to collect all of the recipes that …

In less than 3 weeks Matt and I will be leaving the country for a little tropical getaway. The thought of living in a bikini for 5 days makes me freak out juuust a tad. Okay, maybe a lot. So to get bikini-ready {and preferably lose at least 5 pounds}, Matt and I began a …
If you are anything like me, your most productive time at the gym is the first 7 minutes on the elliptical. After that, it all goes down hill, especially if I’ve forgotten to bring my Us Weekly or my headphones. And since it is bikini season and I just so happen to have multiple beach …
I officially have to be in a bikini in less than 2 weeks for a bachelorette party. Maybe I should have thought about that all weekend as I stuffed my face with wine and Cadbury eggs. Dang you, Easter Bunny. At any given time, if you ask me if I am on a diet, my …
Well friends, Matt and I have gone back to our vegan ways for 2013. You are probably wondering how he could possibly give up steak and shrimp. Well, truth be told, we really didn’t have a “choice.” About 2 years ago Matt went to the doctor for an annual physical exam and found out that his …
