Good evening! (Or night or morning, or what have you). Before we talk about breakfast, I’m finally ready to announce this on the blog: I got into grad school!! I was fairly confident that I would, but still, it’s good to not to wonder anymore. I’m going for a Master’s Degree in Nonprofit Management [...]

My New Crazy Endeavor, and Why I’m Becoming Popeye
In my last post I asked if you’ve ever done a workout that made you say “WTF AM I DOING” halfway through, and a few of you said yoga. Well, I think I have stumbled upon the craziest of “WTF yoga” out there—Bikram. A friend of mine talked me into going to a class, and [...]
Life in List Form
Hey! Remember me? I’m Hallie and I have a blog It’s finals time for Mitch which means editing time for Hallie. I love editing and proofreading, actually, so I don’t mind at all. But it means less time for blogging! (Side note, for you students out there, if you’re looking for reference info at the [...]
Product Review: VitaTops and VitaBrownie
Awhile ago, I was sent a sampler pack of VitaTops and VitaBrownies to try out and review for the blog. I wanted to wait until I had tried enough to give my full review. Thanks, Katie from Vitalicious, for sending me these free samples. I’ve seen these on blogs and the Hungry Girl emails (that [...]
New Jam, New Fruit, and Friendly Farmers
Remember yesterday? Man, seems like a long time ago, huh? I asked for guesses on what was in my breakfast (other than the obvious cereal yogurt, flax): Well, it wasn’t sweet and sour sauce or ketchup, but this gem I picked up on Monday and I went with my bestie Cara on a day trip [...]
I Don’t Look Bad as a Blond
Hola! I wanted to thank everyone for their thoughts on my numbness issues that I mentioned in my last post. I did get the shoes from a running store, but I got the “newer” version of the shoes I got there last time, so maybe I should have spent more time looking at other options. [...]
Look at Me, I Finished My Peanut Butter
I’ve been reading blogs long enough to know that when one sees this: It can only mean one thing: oatmeal in a jar! Because I have control issues, I scraped the last bit out and measured it so I could be sure I wasn’t having a crazy amount of PB. In total it was 1.5 [...]
The Good, The Bad, The Eggs
Tonight I had spicy turkey meatloaf (sans bacon) and a big salad with balsamic vinegar for dinner. A small piece of the meatloaf and a giant salad. It. Was. Amazing. Probably because I haven’t had it in twelve weeks. Now that I’m on my own for my meal plans, it’s honestly a little weird. I’m [...]
Spicy Oatmeal Success!
There are a bunch of foods I didn’t eat before I started reading food blogs. Or at least, not nearly as much as I eat them now (or WILL be eating them again after next Friday when my bootcamp is OVAH!!). These include: almond butter, banana-PB oatmeal, pumpkin anything, Greek yogurt, kale chips (which is [...]
Weighing In and Eating (Peachy) Waffles
I can’t believe I’ve been doing my bootcamp program for a month! Honestly, I’m ready for it to be over, but I haven’t reached my goals yet, so I’ll keep on trucking. I’m having trouble dealing with the fact that my eating plan goes against many of my personal beliefs about food/hunger/losing weight, etc. But [...]
