About

A girl from Los Angeles and a boy from New York come together with high fitness goals and a huge appetite. We will be sharing various workouts, recipes, feasts, and ways we live on a low-end budget. It will be stories of adventures, thoughts, and helpful ways to stay fit and eat well! Did we mention that we’re also total nerds?

Girl

Girl

Born and raised in Santa Monica, California, went to Manhattan College in New York, moved to Boulder, Colorado and now relocated in Los Angeles. A Certified Personal Trainer, majored in Peace Studies and Philosophy, and a lover of food. She’s a “vegetarian,” but not by normal sorts. If it’s hunted or caught (hunted bison, deer, tuna, etc.), she’ll eat it–she’s against the whole food industrialization unnatural process. Hobbies include writing, cooking, reading, exercising (duh!), and video games. She doesn’t mind the outdoors either 😉 

Boy

A mutt from the NYC metro area, he captained his MC D1 swim team and worked multiple jobs en route to his BA. Passed up an Ivy League full ride in a PhD program for adventures with Fit. Stopped competing after major injuries to coach others in athletics, fitness, and aquatics. A certification junkie willing to test anything that could help and a black hole for food. Favorite things include family, working, video games, manga, martial arts, and only getting “cardio” through playing sports.

Nymeria

Born on the 17th of June, 2012, this little huntress stalks the house with her yellow eyes shining in the darkness. Her hobbies include kneading elbows, necks, and armpits. She’s the animal version of Fit, always staying hydrated and eating lots of fruits and vegetables. Her favorite food is banana.

Sajah

 

Born on the 18th of August, 2012, this former big-pawed chubby little lion cub hides unless it’s dinner time. His name means lion in the Korean language and he has the appetite of one too. He was born feral so he’s a little skittish but he loves playing with all of his toys.

        Hahaha! You should read/watch Hunter x Hunter and also Skip Beat. I’m pretty sure you’ll like Skip Beat. 😛

        Thanks! I have to admit when I started my blog it wasn’t exactly the healthy kind, but during the course of my weight loss journey I’ve learned and managed to switch over to a healthier lifestyle.

    You’ve got a great blog here. Your suggestions are sensible and doable. I dig that. Before I was a writer, I worked in cardiac rehab so we have some shared interests – healthy eating and exercise, along with a little stress reduction thrown in for good measure. Keep up the good blog! Cheers.
