About Us

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 and New York, now moved to Boulder, Colorado. 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

Born and raised in Bergen County, New Jersey (just outside New York), got to Manhattan College before girl did and now living in Boulder too. Started the swim team at his school, but is an all-around athlete. Detailed aquatics instructor with concentrations from tri swim training to teaching the little ones how to do their first strokes. Fitness extraordinaire. Hobbies include cooking, video games, manga, exercising (another duh), and 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.
