What is Intermittent Fasting + Why it Works for Me
When I started on my journey towards eating more healthfully this year, something I started to practice without much thought is to stop eating after dinner and then not eat again until I got to work in the morning. Prior to this, I would often snack (and binge, tbh) after dinner on sweets or chips, when I wasn’t truly hungry. I didn’t realize ...

Update: My Second Postpartum D&C Surgery
I don't even know how to start writing this post because my feelings are still so raw and fresh. I'm still in a little bit of shock at what happened over the last couple of days.

What’s in My Fridge This Week?
I get a lot of requests to talk about what I eat, so I thought it would be fun to do a "what's in my fridge" post. I say "this week" because obviously it varies, usually I switch up my fruits based on what's in season.
