If you’ve been reading a while, then you know I’m not a huge fan of New Year’s Resolutions. It’s not that I’m opposed to goal-setting or the process of bettering ourselves, per se, it’s just that I get annoyed at all the hype surrounding the process. Maybe my attitude is a direct result of our…

What I Won’t Do in 2017
Year after year, I give in to peer pressure by writing out the customary New Year’s resolution post. But you know what? I’m not really a big New Year’s resolution person. Yes, I like to create periodic goals for myself, but I sort of eschew the expectation of setting pie-in-the-sky resolutions one month only to break…
5 Blogging Goals for 2016
Hi. Are you sick of these goal-related posts yet? Hopefully I’m not boring you, but if I am, you can rest assured that this will be my last of this topic for a while. From one day to the next, I question my blog. One day I love it and have pipe dreams of growing…
The Body You Deserve (& What Does That Mean?)
Last Thursday night’s cardio barre class was one of the best I’ve taken in a while. There was a good energy, and despite the 2 donuts I ate prior, I felt great the whole time! I’ve mentioned it before, but I really like our instructor. She’s energetic, motivating, and hands-on, but this time, something she…
Fasting & Purging: 4 Months of Cutting Back on Spending & Clutter
For many months, I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about clutter (mental and physical “clutter,” but today’s post is about the latter). Specifically, how I have too much of it and that it’s suffocating me. I’m the worst procrastinator and packrat (thanks, parents!), so you can only imagine how those 2 traits have created a…
Operation: Movement in March – Week 1
Happy, happy weekend, friends! I don’t normally post on Saturdays, but I’m going to try to do so every week this month. You see, I made a goal for March. I mentioned it last Sunday, but I’m trying to exercise every day this month. So far, I’ve failed (you knew that was coming). I had…
September Blogging Challenge: Goals & Accomplishments
I don’t think it’s a big secret that I’m in a bit of a blogging slump. Ok, more like a blogging abyss. To counteract that and diversify my content—and hopefully learn how to type a blog post that’s less than 500 words (I’m wordy, ok?!)—I’m going to participate in Gracie’s September Blogging Challenge. Since we’re…
Progress at Bikram
Today I realized how little fitness talk I’ve shared around these parts. Yes, foodiEcology is primarily a food blog (it’s in the name—hello?), but blogging is also a way to hold myself accountable to a fitness routine. I’ve met a couple of my exercise-related goals on my 30 Before 30 list (trying a yoga class…
Might as well face it, you’re addicted…to yoga
Tomorrow, I will have completed my 30-day “introduction” to Bikram yoga. Now, more than ever, I’m 100% positive I want to stick with it. There’s just something magical about the hot room. Some people have church…or music…or art…and I now have yoga. [source] Though I’m nowhere near where I want to be, I can already…
WIAW #14 + Jello Arms
Today I’d hoped to share how I finally ran a mile without stopping. I’m blaming the awful humidity and the half-awake stupor I was in, but Saturday’s run was worse than the previous two! No mile—yet. Also, my planned run for yesterday didn’t happen because it was extremely windy and raining. I did, however, do…
