Hey Monica! I just had a question for you…..I was just wondering where you did freelance work and how you are able to earn some extra income on the side. I work 50 hours a week but myself and my hubby are still short on cash so I figured the easiest way was to do something from home. I have been interested in starting a blog for a while but am not sure how to get started. Any tips are appreciated! Thanks!

I’m glad I found your blog! I love reading your posts. I lost 110 pounds on my own–through counting calories, exercise and trying to retrain myself on how to eat healthy. I’ve recently started running and will be competing in Hood To Coast Relay this year. Keep up the blogging! :)

You look wonderful! I got the Intuitive Eating book because of your web and I am enjoying the freedom of eating. However, I have 65 pounds that I need to lose. To this point I have not seen great results. It is about health and I am for sure excited about that. My question is, how did you stop eating when you were full? How did you control your eating when you were not hungry? Did you drink tea or anything? I am a stay at home mom so I do not have a ton to distract me. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you so much!!!

Hi there!
I was thinking about getting my personal training certification, and was wondering what program you used. There are SOOOO many options out there and I am feeling overwhelmed! Any advice?

Thanks much!

I just discovered your blog and absolutely love it. At 23 years old I have always been an athlete but have also always struggled with the binge restrict cycle. People tell me I am fit and slim, sitting at 5’11″ and 140 pounds, but i feel like crap because I feel out of control. I am going to buy this book and see how it works for me.

Hi Monica-I just have to say that you crack me up all the time on this blog-your “no bueno” lines were hilarious. I like this blog because I like that you eat a good amount and you are honest about it. I am a 28-year old female and runner/grad student and I struggled with disordered eating for many years,) and I would say that my eating habits still aren’t that regulated, in that I skip meals a lot (and make up for all the miles I run with frosting!!) but overall I am healthy. It’s just refreshing to see that you eat-I feel that a lot of blogs I see, the bloggers really don’t seem to eat that much, or if they do, it’s all like plates of tofu and veggies and no carbs or teeny tiny portions. I have a question for you though-do you always eat 3 meals a day? Like sometimes do you ever take pictures of meals you eat and not eat them if you aren’t hungry or something? Do other bloggers ever do this? I just wonder. I normally get in two solid meals (and always dessert) but breakfast or lunch would be what I would skip the most. Any tips on how to get on that habit of eating those meals? Often I will skip breakfast or lunch so that I can “have” dessert and not feel guilty about it, and then consequently I am not hungry in the morning. Also I love seeing your posts about Florida-I go there frequently to visit family, and it is so different running there because it is soo hot. I drink a lot of water and white wine when I am there-and also eat a lot of ice cream! Anwyay Happy New Year-Jesse :)

Hi! I just started reading about Chia seeds and on your recommendation watched Hungry for Change which also mentioned Chia seeds. I see in your blog you put them on your food, do you sprinkle them dry? Or do you mix with water and add them once they start to gel up?
Thank you!

Hello from TX! I found your site not too long ago and can say I am addicted and feel inspired every time I read your blog! Thanks for sharing your experiences. I am on a personal journey to lose weight and become healthier overall. Hopefully even start running as some point. I do have a question for you. If I’m restricting my calories and working out (cardio) everyday for at least 30 min (if not more) can my body stop losing weight? For instance if I am allowing myself 1500 cals per day and only consume 1400 and burn 300 cals for a net intake of 1100 by the end of my day can this be stalling my weightloss? Should I be consuming the full 1500 everyday? Your insight would be really great!

Thanks again for your awesome blog!

Hey Dalia,

You def can slow or stop weight loss if your body thinks it’s in starvation mode. Be careful to eat enough, while still allowing for a deficit. Good luck!
