I wore my pedometer at work yesterday, to see just how many steps I take in an average day. I walked 4.85 km at work in less than 6 hours. Or, 3 miles. Yeah, I can’t figure out how to switch it from km to miles again, oops!
I would still rather have a desk job, though. Is that bad?

1. My shoe size has shrunk by one. A heart break due to my rather large shoe collection/a wonderful excuse to buy new shoes.
2. Shades finally look good on me. I’ve always looked kind of ridiculous in shades but whatever way my face has changed shape they finally fit right
3. Dresses are…

CNN discusses the obvious.
Why You’re Not Seeing Fitness Results
3) You’re only doing cardio.
Yuam said he hears complaints from people who say they don’t see any changes after spending hours on the treadmill or elliptical machine.
“For people who are sitting on exercise machines, they’re not getting their heart rate up. They just are doing the motions. They’re going to fail or...

Follow Friday!
You may have noticed a complete lack of “Follow Friday” or “Tumblr Tuesday” posts on my part. I’ve basically neglected to recommend any Fitblr’s lately as it’s just too hard to pick one. There are absolutely WAY too many inspirational, motivational, beautiful, supportive GEMS that I follow to pick just ONE fitblr each week. Too hard.
But this week,...
Anonymous asked: Well hey there, Fitblr Buddy! I just want to congratulate you on your amazing progress so far! I'll be right here cheering you on as you work towards your goal. YOU'RE ALMOST THERE! That's so inspiring.
YOU ROCK. :)

Finallllly!
I got a job! But, it’s definitely not at ALL what I wanted or was looking for. I have degrees now…so I was hoping to avoid working in food service forever! Destination: real job when I move back to Phoenix — ETA: 4 months!
Oh well! This means that I will probably be posting less and looking for new ways to get exercise and eat healthy while working 30+ hour weeks around food, so get...

I would like to preface this with the following letter:
Dear people who often complain about how expensive it is to eat organic/locally/healthy,
You have no idea what you’re talking about.
XO, Ella
P.S. think it’s expensive now? Just wait until you get slammed with the doctor’s bill. Good…
Agreed 100% with everything. And we ARE in mourning of the booze isle...

I Am Losing It: Just the Tips, Ma'am →
These are amazing & dead on. Obviously, must reblog.
iamlosingit:
Don’t compare yourself to anyone else along the way. Your weight-loss story is yours. Their weight-loss stories are theirs. Bodies are different. People are different. Goals are different. Focus on you.
Set yourself up to succeed. If you can’t control yourself at a buffet, don’t go to a…
I'm BACK :)
So, hey!
I haven’t posted in MONTHS! I really didn’t think anyone would notice, but I got several sweet messages that helped encourage me to start blogging again.
I had some pretty unforeseen & icky things come up in my life that required me to focus my attention elsewhere. I never - and still haven’t - “given up” on my lifestyle change, but I just needed to...
