One Year Later
To be honest, it's very difficult to keep a blog up when you get no comments or feedback. You do all this research, writing, coming up with ideas, you post it, and then - nothing.
So that's my excuse for taking off a year from this blog. I stumbled on it recently and forgot how much fun it was to learn all these great tips, ideas, and research and then share them with - well probably nobody, but just share them to the wide open Web.
Basically what I'm trying to say is - I'm back. I really still think there is a void of good women's health and fitness information in blog format, and I believe I can somehow in a small way put a dent in the void.
My update: Since last year I've run two 5-ks, a 3-k and my first 10-k. I'm loving running. It's such a great workout and an even better way to release steam and feel like you're accomplishing things. Therefore, don't be surprised if a lot of my new posts are running-related. Not a runner? Well no fear, I'm a relative newbie also, and will try to use this space to give advice and encouragement to all you who wish to venture to the other side. The running side.
I got married in December and recently found that I have a passion (and a little bit of talent) for cooking and baking. I've been making some pretty elaborate meals for my husband, and he's loving it. I'm maintaining my weight even amid all the new food by practicing portion control. I make a recipe that says "two servings" and give my husband two thirds of the thing - sometimes more than that. I get this great-tasting meal, right sized portions, and no weight gain. Life couldn't be better. :)
