Your Healthista: Emotional Cooking →
yourhealthista:
We all know about emotional eating. We’ve all accepted that it’s a real thing, and most of have probably done it at some point.
But recently, I had a small epiphany about a different type of activity: emotional cooking.
I love this! I definitely emotional cook sometimes, but typically I emotionally clean. Still, I might make a point to do it more!
Your Healthista: The Allure of Low-Quality Foods →
yourhealthista:
I know I can seem like a big food snob, and sometimes, I am. But I appreciate the allure of low-quality foods because sometimes they hit the spot in a way nothing else can. There’s no reason to fully eliminate movie nachos, candy bars, or chain food from our lives completely; we just have to be very intentional about how we eat it.
Which “low-quality” foods do you crave?

The make-believe town of Beckinfield is the setting for the Mad Libs-style show of the same name, which uses crowd-sourced amateur actors from all over the world who create the show’s story by posting videos.
Dear girls with cramps,

Your Nutritionista: 10 Reasons to Stop Thinking... →
nutritionista:
Because every single women’s magazine can’t stop thinking about it. And they have absolutely no new advice for you.
Because I bet if you had to choose between “relaxing with friends and family” and “being 3 pounds lighter,” you’d choose the former.
Because spending time obsessing about it…
LOVE.

birchbox:
We are totally supportive of the cause behind ‘Movember’ (raising awareness for prostate cancer), but we can’t say that we are fans of the actual execution. In our opinion, a mustache is not a good look for any man (with the exception of Tom Sellack; he just looks silly without one.)
We will say, though, that mustaches are pretty great everywhere else other than men’s faces,...
THE ANGRY THERAPIST: Marriage Abuse →
YUP.
theangrytherapist:
Kim Karshaisan and Kris Humphries file for divorce after 72 days. When I hear stories like this it gives me the same feeling as hearing about teenagers using abortion as birth control. I think there’s a tremendous lack of responsibility here.

Tortilla Meatball Soup
Inspired by Leah’s Season of Soup challenge, Monday night, I took on a new recipe: Tortilla Meatball Soup from Cooking Light.
I’ll admit: I actually planned to make the soup without really reading the recipe. When looking for recipes, I tend to read the ingredients but disregard the steps involved. Come Monday afternoon, when I was sending it to Eric in the context of, “So...

Leah tries yoga! Woot woot!
nutritionista:
I know this will come as a shock to some of you, but before yesterday, I had never tried yoga. EVER. You know how when you put something off for long enough, it becomes a bigger deal than it needs to be? That’s exactly what happened with yoga and me.

ubykotex:
Hey! Check out the article I wrote for the U by Kotex site on eating during your period. More informative period/vaginal health-related articles here.
