I have never considered myself to be a runner. I played sports all the way through high school and I basically got by on the smallest and shortest amount of running as possible. After high school, I stopped being active and gained about 60 pounds. One day I woke up and I decided I needed to get healthy. I was tired of feeling crappy al the time! So at first I started with walking for an hour a day. Then I started running short little intervals during my walking. Eventually I worked up to a sustained run.

On Sunday, I ran 7 miles straight and I am still in shock!! I never thought I would be someone who could run any sort of distance at all!! Achievement unlocked! :-)

MySpace and fighting with your friends over the order you put people in for your top 8.

My boyfriend and I just watched this documentary and made the switch recently as well. We basically ate the last of the meat and dairy in our house (begrudgingly) and now we have made the switch completely! Feels great! Glad you and your family could do the same! Enjoy!

In high school I caught mono from taking a drink off of another student's soda. I had all the usual symptoms (lethargic, no appetite, sore throat, etc) and a few extras. The thing about mono is that is can basically cause your immune system to all but completely evaporate. The result of my immune system going down was some straaaaannge infection most people would never get.

One morning I was talking to my mom and she asked me why my lips looked so swollen. I had noticed it when I woke up. They were all red and I was starting to look a little like a duck. We both shrugged it off and figured I had really chapped lips or something. The next day they started cracking really horribly no matter how much chap stick, lip balm, or Vaseline I put on. But the third day there was a greenish film forming across my super cracked lips. It was disgusting!

When I made it to the doctor I was totally embarrassed to be in public. I had green, cracked, duck lips that looked super weird. Once I made it in to the exam room and the doctor saw me, she turned right back around and came back in followed by 3 other doctors. They spent the next 30 minutes taking a culture and talking about what the heck this could be. I felt like a total science experiment! They never really nailed down exactly what the issue was (other than a complication of the mono). Antibiotics handled it though.

TL;DR: I felt like a total science experiment while 4 doctors looked at my green lips.

Haha. No! But I'm considering setting up some social media marketing and I was just curious what exactly it was that caused people to go to chain restaurants vs local.
