Day 366- The Year In Review

This year is a leap year so we decided to do an extra blog entry to end on the day that it was all started, March 1st. This year has flown by for me, and it's hard to remember everything that I have written about in the last 365 days, so I thought that a reflection back on some of my favorite blogs from the last year was in order. That's what they always do when a TV show is endings anyways, so to follow in their pursuit, here are some of my favorite blogs or at least topics:

Most people that know me know that I love coconut. Coconut oil, coconut water, coconut milk, coconut smell; really everything there is about coconut, so I wrote the blog: My Tropical Love Affair

People are so consumed with lowering their cholesterol, and they don't take the time to figure out why their bodies are making an excess amount of it before they turn to a pill that only masks the problem instead of getting to the root of the issue. In the blog Cholesterol, Just a Little Misunderstood, I talk about the important roles that cholesterol plays in the body.

So many people struggle with blood sugar issues, especially women, and even more so with athletes. Regulating your blood sugar is easy to do, and in the blog Hypoglycemia I talk about what changes you can make.

I know there are multiple reasons why women would go on birth control, but none of them seem to be worth the damage that is created with their use. Many of the dangers that come along with the use of birth control are irreversible. I talk about this in the blog: Birth Control Not the "Magic" Pill You May Have Thought.

Soy is another thing that I avoid, and have actually written two blogs on the topic already. But I think the one that may have had the largest reaction with people is the blog called How Soy Formula is Similar to Birth Control.

I learned a lot from my guest blogger Amanda Buhl in her post, I'll Eat That, where she discussed ways to be less wasteful when it comes to keeping fresh produce.

Hello My Name is (Fill in The Blank) and I'm a Carboholic, I thought was a good awakening for people letting them know that there is life after carbs. This is tough for some people I know, because I married a carboholic myself.

I was happy to be able to share baby food recipes created by Debra Delson, CN in a blog. This blog featured three great and easy recipes that you can make at home for your child instead of purchasing store bought food; which ends up being a lot cheaper and healthier in the long run.

Thank you everyone that has shared in this experience with me!

Blog on!

Pura Vida!
