any recommendations for super dry facial skin?
:( my face has been chapped for the past couple weeks… even though I slap on lotion literally 24/7 drugstore brands, if possible?? poor college student right here.. haha
I wish people would realize that living a healthy...
ohshitgetfit:
If you want a slice of pizza, have one.
When you’re craving some sweets, have a few.
Sometimes you eat more of something than you planned, that’s okay.
I totally sabotaged myself into thinking that the only way to lose weight was to cut out all delicious foods…WRONG. I treat myself EVERYDAY. Whether it be a big or small one, depriving yourself causes you to binge (most of the...

lent.
I’m not religious or anything, but I decided to give up something for Lent just to help me regain my self-control. Basically, it’s the general eating habits I’ve been following for the past ~1.5 weeks, and I just need some external motivation to keep me going.. Given up: • processed “crunchy” snacks (granola bars, cereals, crackers, etc… but yogurt, dark...

GUYS I think I lost my chest strap for my polar heart rate monitor ;( luckily, I have a better and more realistic sense of the number of calories I burn during different workouts, so the estimates shouldn’t be too off (p.s. mfp and all those online calorie counters are wildly inaccurate) … but sigh. not to mention waste of money to purchase a new one.. :(

working out IS the best therapy.
cardio, specifically. all day, I was feeling really sluggish and blah-ish, because my midterm ended up being really hard, my paper that I turned in wasn’t my best work, and I just felt overall extremely tired. BUT, after taking a short nap, I did a quick hilly-ish 15 minute run and went to kickboxing class. 83 minutes later, 495 calories burned, and 5 gallons of sweat, I am now one...

Dear Emergen-C & Vitamin C tablets,
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do your magic and work.. I beg you. I can’t get sick this week, or at least not anytime in the next 48 hours. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE. And Emergen-C, even though you really don’t taste as good as people claim, but I’ll show you some love anyway and chug you down like there’s no tomorrow. xoxo s

It’s tragic that if I eat a small snack, it makes me even more hungry.. since I’m staying up tonight, I allowed myself to eat some frozen berries since I felt hungry.. but now, 10 minutes later, I’m hungry again. And I don’t think it’s “cravings” because my stomach has that empty, hollow feeling. -__________- #foreverhungry

I may or may not have eaten a bit too many almonds at three in the morning… I blame the studying. Trader Joe’s Spicy & Tangy almonds will now be banned from my apartment until further notice ;(

The five stages of running
An hour before running: I don't wanna run today.
5 minutes before running: I'm pumped! Let's do this!
While running: Can't breathe... Must keep going... Run to the rhythm of my music... Don't die...
5 minutes after running: Everything's awesome! I love running! I could run for the rest of my life!
An hour after running: I. Am going. To die.

holycrap Iliurveeeee dark chocolate. and peanut butter.
ugh.
I made a very stupid mistake of weighing myself today, after my mini-binge last night, after being bloated the entire day, and before working out. I knew I wouldn’t like what I was going to see on the scale, and tbh, I don’t know why I did it.. but sigh. I’m guessing I’m at ~109/110lb right now, which is the highest I’ve been since.. July. My goal is to go back down...

Eat Like A Yogi →
peanutbuttahealthnut:
This article made me feel so good about myself. Especially the line where the one girl talks about listening to your personal truth when thinking about what to eat and what kind of diet to follow.
No diet is a miracle diet, as is shown by the amount of different diets each yogi tried until they settled on one that worked for them. Many switched between vegan,...

after not really eating any processed food (except for the staples of greek yogurt, hummus, almond milk), I ate Better’n Peanut Butter today because I figured it was ‘healthier’ than almond butter.. but NOPEEEE (1) the taste doesn’t even come close. SO artificial tasting.. (2) my stomach feels sick.. It’s really not used to this manufactured shieeeet. (3)...

and I don’t want to go workout today. Instead, I want to go to Trader Joe’s and buy some bananas, peanut butter, and yogurt. YUM.
CAN THIS MONTH JUST BE OVER.. PLEASE?
i can’t do this anymore.. recruiting for jobs is a more disheartening process than I had anticipated. here’s the low down- as I’m currently scrambling to finish my paper, I receive a rejection email from my dream dream dream firm. I guess since the process is over, I can share it without worrying that it’ll jinx anything? haha.. well, that firm = Google. I even went...
