Anyone who ever had the pleasure of meeting my dad will agree that I look kinda very similar to him. In many ways, I’ve also taken on several of his personal traits. For example, we are both hoarders. It undoubtedly drives my mom crazy but like my dad, I have trouble throwing things away…particularly magazines! …
Don’t you love cleaning out your home and finding things which you never knew existed or just simply forgot about? I sometimes think my closet is a gold mine because every now and then, there seems to be a top or dress which completely slipped my mind- not a bad ‘problem’ to have 🙂 . Unfortunately that …
When I was younger, one thing which I used to take pride in was my music knowledge. I was the go-to person for new music. Anytime a new hip hop/ R&B song was out, it wasn’t long before I had downloaded it (and knew the lyrics). It pains me to admit that such is not the …
Someone recently asked me for weight loss/dietary advice and the first thing that came to mind was gradual changes.

I get immense pleasure out of finishing a workout with a damp t-shirt! Even though many females find the whole ordeal ‘gross’ or ‘embarrassing’, …
Who am I and what have I done with my former self? I actually look forward to strength training workouts and shockingly sometimes rather do it than cardio. Yes, that’s coming from a self-professed cardio junkie 🙄 . As I mentioned a couple of weeks ago, I made theconscious decision to get my weight training on. I …
Hanger: the most genius word invented. According to Merriam-Webster Online: (adjective): Feeling or showing anger caused by hunger. Combination of ‘hungry’ and ‘angry’. How to use it in a sentence:“Let’s go eat; Mom’s starting to get hangry.” Let’s be honest, hunger can bring out the cranky beeyatch in all of us! Since last …
As I confessed a while ago, there are some foods whose ingredient lists go right above my head. What I don’t know can’t hurt, right? RIGHT?! Glad we’re on the same page :D! Another one to add to the list is cookie dough. Who cares if it contains margarine? Who cares if eating it raw …
