Can I have cheat meals and keep losing weight?
In the last 7 months I’ve lost 45 pounds. I went from size 20 (even though I refused to ever buy size 20 jeans so I lived in the 2 pairs of size 18 jeans that had stretched to oblivion with my growing body) to a size 14. I also have a pair of size […]

Back to school, at 28 years old.
As of this morning, I’m officially a full-time college student at UW Milwaukee. As of last night I didn’t get any sleep because I somehow mysteriously screwed up my shoulder, I think it’s just because I turned 28 last week and I’m getting old and broken. This morning I’m just sitting here doing some laundry, […]

The 5K run and the 6-year-old
I turn 28 in 10 days, and if you saw way back in January I made a goal, or I guess since it was January it might as well be called a resolution, to complete a 5k by my 28th birthday. Well, I did it, I completed a 5k! It didn’t go according to plan, but […]

Hiking at Cave Point Park | Door County, Wisconsin

Four Ingredient Slow Cooker Chicken Wings

It’s always on our minds when we’re deciding whether ordering those spicy wings is worth the heartburn we’ll be feeling later. We recently tried Alka-Seltzer® PM Gummies, a new […]
This is what happens after 100 days of MyFitnessPal
100 days ago I was really struggling with my weight. I would instantly delete pictures of myself. It was becoming difficult to find something in my closet to wear. I didn’t have the energy or motivation to peel myself off of the couch. Then I decided that enough was enough. I decided to start […]
Free resources we’re using to learn Spanish while unschooling
Aliceana is almost 6 and I figured it would be the perfect age to start learning Spanish. The only problem is I don’t know any Spanish aside from the words that everyone knows, uno, si, fiesta, taco, and other extremely basic vocabulary words. So I’m definitely not the best person to be learning Spanish from. So we’reworking […]
