I'm so glad you guys did it this way! People know it takes discipline and that scares them off but when you're ready, YOU'RE READY!

I wasn't bored reading about food; I love nutrition. High fructose corn syrup is in SO MANY things but as you know by now (but most people don't) there are always options without it. We spent so long in the grocery store looking for sauces and salad dressings and bread without it. Once you find a brand without it, though, it's easier to just buy that brand each time. Sometimes I cave and get these Voortman's cranberry flax oatmeal cookies that don't have HFCS or hydrogenated oils. They're like my big indulgence. I don't try to lose weight but I do try to eat healthy and add fruits and vegetables whenever I can, like adding baby spinach and avocado to grilled cheese sandwiches. People always ask how I can eat carbs and be the size I am (I'm an 8 and have been pretty much since I was 14yo, which isn't tiny but it's small compared to a lot of people, especially those I work with) and I try to explain that it's because carbs don't make you fat! And vegetarian doesn't necessarily equal high carb. I do eat fish and eggs, though.

Brian looks so damn sexy, you have another job now: keeping the ladies away from him!

You're so cute in pink and leg warmers!!

Thank you! I couldn't agree more the HFCS is a huge deal.
My splurge cookies are Late June dark organic chocolate cream cookies. Fucking NOM.

And I know, I'm gonna have to start carrying a bat to make women back off of him haha
