How to Burn More Calories - Story of My Life!

I feel like the word 'calories' is at the center of my thought process almost daily. This pretty much sums up how every woman in America feels about calories:

But let's be honest, calories in < calories out is the ONLY way to lose weight. There's no magic supplement, no magic workout routine that you can do in 10 minutes a day. You have to burn more than you eat. End of story.

How can you burn more calories in the daily activities you're already doing? Check out this cool infographic to see how you can burn more calories walking.

I'm a Slacker.... And Salad Beware!

Ok, so remember I said I had started this in hopes of it keeping me on track?! Well, apparently I'm a goal-setting slacker! BUT, I'm back with a vengance and I'm ready to get this done right! I'm working on getting a plan and setting up some social media tonight so you'll be seeing more of me, I promise!

Meanwhile, has anyone seen this story about the bagged salad that they think has caused a parasitic infection? It's basically just a stomach virus, but it sounds like "salads are evil" ammunition to me! I actually really love a GOOD salad, but that takes a shit ton of chopping and preparation that I find a million excuses not to do!

How are your goals coming? I'm up a few pounds after my birthday (holla!) but I'm hitting the gym hard, so it's getting outta here ASAP

I'll be back tomorrow with an awesome recipe for black beans and rice!

Is this thing on?

My fiancee is always telling me I need to start a blog. I have a couple theories as to why a. I talk too much and he's sick of hearing it OR b. He really tries but just doesn't give a damn about my girly problems

Truth be told, I do talk too much. Nonetheless, that's not why I started Rabbit Food Done Right. I've struggled with managing my weight since my son, Talon, was born over three years ago. I've tried every fad diet you can imagine with little to no success. Finally, about a year and a half ago I bit the bullet and went the low carb route.

I was working out 4-5 times a week and eating super-clean. After about eight months, I was able to lose just over 40 pounds and I was thrilled. But after a week long vacation in Disney World and carb [+ beer] binging, I could never get back on track full time.

A year and 15 pounds later I've finally found my motivation again, in the form of a gorgeous engagement ring and Fall 2014 wedding. I'll be damned if I have muffin tops hanging over my newlywed undies!

I'm easing my way back into the low carb lifestyle and trying to get my mind back on regular exercise. I hope Rabbit Food Done Right will help motivate me and make me stick to my plan. As I was cutting up my afternoon snack at work today (Fresh raspberries and peaches, although it tastes more like a nectarine. I pulled it from the peach mountain at Kroger, how do I know if I got a peach or a nectarine?) my bowl looked super pretty with the peach and raspberry colors all cuddling together, and I thought to myself "hell yes! If you're going to eat rabbit food (do rabbits like fruit?) this is the way to do it! That's rabbit food done right! and wa-la here we are.....

My goal (this is scary, it's going to be forever published in internet-world) is to get to my goal weight of 125 by the end of the summer. As of this morning I was 147 so I have 12 weeks to lose 22 pounds. Hefty goal aye? You in or what?
