Is there anything better in life than a pair of good black leggings? You know, the kind you say that are for working out, but they’re also for sitting on your couch in a hoodie and fuzzy socks. (You know you do it too!) Every time I go shopping for workout clothes, I tell myself not to buy another pair of black workout leggings. And just about every time I go shopping for workout clothes… let’s just say, I’ve lost count of how many pairs I have, but they’re my favorite and ones that I wear all the time. I mean, they go with everything ! Here are my top five favorites. Brooks Greenlight Capris (on sale for $42!): These are my hands-down favorite leggings, and I’ll always pick them from the top of the (clean!) laundry pile. They’re seriously reliable for every type of workout from CrossFit to running to OrangeTheory. Plus, the fabric is super-soft so that I can focus on getting a good sweat in and not on some awkwardly fitting tights. Brooks Go-To Capri – Yeah, I think these are c...

I am careful about what I eat, but I am also careful in other aspects of my life too. I seek out things that are healing to my body… such as drinking clean filtered water, laughing with good friends, and taking exercise classes. I don’t want to just live… I want to be healthy. Can you blame me? I want to feel amazing and have lots of energy. I want a clear mind, free of anxiety and sadness. And I want to live a long, happy life. Don’t you? The problem is that there are toxins in many products and in our environment that can lead to disease. This is why I try to surround myself and my family with the purest, most natural products (including supplements). I don’t feel comfortable ingesting synthetic substances invented in a lab by a team of scientists… especially when these synthetic substances come with a long list of potential adverse side effects. Many over-the-counter medications contain “inactive ingredients” that I wouldn’t normally put into my body – and most definitely don’...

I love podcasts. They might be my favorite part of the Internet revolution. World-class lectures on every topic. Interviews with experts from every field. Hilarious comics ripping on each other. And it’s all free. Today, I’m going to list some of the health podcasts I’m enjoying lately. First, check out the post I did several years back . All those podcasts are still great, and you should still listen to them. But as the movement has grown, so has the stable of health podcasts. It’s impossible to keep up with all of them, but it’s fun trying. Here are a few I’m digging lately. Primal Blueprint Podcast It might be shameless self-promotion, but I love what my team does. Primal Blueprint Podcast host Elle Russ always serves up great conversation no matter who she’s interviewing each week. You’ll find me there periodically, too, either talking with Elle about a new book or project or acting as host myself, as I did this week with Chris Kresser. While we’re on the subject, I’ll menti...

When I first started eating well, it felt like the only advice I got was what to remove .  While taking the crap out of my diet was good advice in many ways, sometimes I found it difficult and a little depressing to give up the foods I loved. Top of the list: hash browns. Golden, crispy, greasy hash browns. And you guys know how much I love hash browns ! So, how does one maintain a healthy, well balanced lifestyle while simultaneously stuffing their face with hash browns? Answer: they don’t. Or at least not by enjoying them in their original greasy state. But a life without hash browns just doesn’t seem worth it, so instead of cutting them out completely and feeling deprived, I got crafty and adapted. I whipped up this alternative take on my old favorite that fit my new lifestyle. Meet my new breakfast favorite: Parmesan Cauliflower Hash Browns — an indulgent AND healthy addition to your breakfast. Parmesan Cauliflower Hash Browns Makes 4 hash browns 2 cups riced cauliflow...

Keto may not be for everyone, and low-carb is not the only way to eat well, but most would agree that people in the modern world tend to eat way too many carbohydrates—far more than their lifestyles and activity levels warrant. Along with some other big factors, excessive intake of refined carbohydrates is a major player in the modern epidemics of obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and other disorders. This is no longer controversial. Reducing carbs is a good move for most folks. The majority of my readers are on some kind of low carb diet. Maybe they’re not fully keto. But they all tend to acknowledge the utility of limiting one’s carbs to only those they need. One of the more common questions I receive from this group concerns carb cycling—periodically adding more carbs to an otherwise low-carb diet. Should it be done? If so, do certain contexts make carb cycling work better or worse? Let’s have a discussion. The main reason people here want to introduce additional carbs...

Look at that face!! ^^ We took our neighbor friend to Sweet Haus for his birthday. The boys LOVED it! I had fun eating a shot of cookie dough frosting *lady dancing emoji* : ) Remember how I ate eggs for breakfast consistently for so long? I am back onto bowls for a bit. Like this bowl with cottage cheese, bananas, peanut butter, and granola. I heated it up just enough to take the chill out of the cottage cheese. This is a winter must-do. Another silly face? This one. Thomas smoked a pork shoulder and Mazen put on his snorkel mask because I told him not to breath in the smoke. (Also: note the shark slippers !) The pork was awesome! We had it as BBQ sandwiches on Sunday night with brussels and I had all the leftovers for lunch. Pork with brussels, pom airils, feta, and roasted veggies. Apple Watch wearers – PSA! I just bought this 8 pack of silicone bands from Amazon and they are awesome! I was tired of my pink band and wanted some contrasting colors. I have found that I ...
