A Match Made In Heaven

Hey guys! I'm terribly sorry I haven't posted anything in so long but my life has been a bit crazy lately so blogging had to take a back seat for a bit. Buuuuuut I'm back now and with great news, I got matched!! April 3rd was quite possibly the longest day of my life but when 6pm struck, I cautiously logged into DND while whispering "it'll be ok" over and over again to myself soft enough for my coworker...

Quest Bar Review

For my fellow Quest lovers out there, I'm sure by now you've all heard that Quest has returned to their original recipe after the 'new' recipe they implemented months ago left customers with a bad taste in their mouth (literally & figuratively). After receiving I'm sure what could only have...

Protein Mug Cake AND Pancake Recipe

I made my first ever protein mug cake sometime last week & since then I have been determined to come up with a recipe that wasn't always as dense as a bagel cause that's exactly how mine kept coming out. They didn't taste all that bad really they just were impossible to swallow without almost choking...

I am so so soooo close to having my DICAS internship application completely finished. Yesterday my DPD director completed my verification statement, I mailed the checks to cover the extra fees that 3 of my designations required (R.I.P to my bank account this month...), and finalized the sessions &...

Words of Wisdom

I've been really working on eating intuitively lately in hopes that it will help me continue along in my weight loss journey & get my weekend binges under control but I still find myself waiting to eat even though I'm hungry just because its not an acceptable "mealtime" per say. Then I read something today on Tumblr that really stuck with me that I think could help to remind everyone, including...

Product Spotlight: Better'n Peanut Butter

I'm sure I'm late to the game on this one but O M G I am in love with this stuff!! I'm one of those people that can get spoon deep in a jar of peanut butter on any given night with no remorse because I just love the stuff. But we all now PB isn't the most low-cal or low-fat food one can eat so while...

Almost Done!

After a  very long & slightly emotional talk with my mom about how frustrated and worried I was because no one was getting me the things I needed for my DICAS application, the nutrition Gods came through in a big way because sure enough later that night one of my transcripts were posted. Then...

Small Victory!

One of my transcripts has been processed!!!  I was literally just venting to my mom about how incomplete my DICAS app is looking (not pointing fingers here but its definitely not my fault...) and I went to check just cause and turns out one of my transcripts made it there a week ago & showed up today as processed! That is a huge sigh of relief. Now I'm waiting on the second transcript...
