I posted about chicken soup

February 24, 2010 by hollie Deep and Meaningful Commentary

I wanted to see what it felt like to post over at my personal blog, so I did. It’s here.
It felt good to post there, and while I really dislike the idea of letting go of this place, I also relish the idea of putting all the parts of my life in one place. I [...]

Should I start a new blog?

February 23, 2010 by hollie Deep and Meaningful Commentary

The last couple weeks at home I’ve been reading so much, and cooking so much, and thinking so much, and my conclusions have been settling quietly in, like new family members.
I don’t plan on going vegan again, anytime soon. I feel badly about this, that it didn’t work for me, but I’ve been trying to [...]

I’m coming back, I promise!

December 4, 2009 by hollie Deep and Meaningful Commentary

Tomorrow we leave for Portland, to visit family and have the Thanksgiving Day celebration we missed having with them last week, thanks to a few of us being sick.
I’ll return on Sunday, and write up some about what I’ve been doing! I’m so excited to get back to this!

I’m sick

November 23, 2009 by hollie Deep and Meaningful Commentary

And my little kiddo is sick, and last week was a total bust when it comes to tracking or even halfway paying attention to healthy eating or exercise. So I’m going to take a week or two off. I’ll still post, but I’m not going to worry about progress or tracking while I’m figuring some [...]

Nifty calorie-counting iPhone app: Lose It!

November 5, 2009 by hollie Deep and Meaningful Commentary

I downloaded Lose It! a couple weeks ago, and I’m happy to give it a glowing review. It’s an app for your iPhone that lets you track calories, weight loss and exercise, and it’s incredibly easy to use. I’d been using another app, but Lose It! is easier and seems much better supported. The icons [...]

I’m eating a Cinnabon and surfing diet websites

October 19, 2009 by hollie Deep and Meaningful Commentary

We went to the mall tonight, that bastion of healthy food, that very model of consumer moderation, and of course Beth wanted to visit the food court. Miles, our son, is taking a class on making models at a gaming store (need to get those geek kids started early), and Beth, his four-year-old sister, has [...]

It’s resolved! I hope.

October 3, 2009 by hollie Deep and Meaningful Commentary

I got a message on my cell that they took care of the charges. I haven’t seen it go through yet, but will keep an eye on it.

Still no word from Renegade Health

October 2, 2009 by hollie Deep and Meaningful Commentary

I’ve sent two email messages in two days, asking what happened and to please refund my money. They aren’t responding. Finally this afternoon I called their support line, which only went to recordings. I left a message detailing what had happened. The support line claims that it will get back to me within 24 hours. [...]

Disappointed by Renegade Health “Inner Circle”

September 30, 2009 by hollie Deep and Meaningful Commentary

I’m a big fan of Angela Stokes, and I’m trying to eat a lot more raw foods, so when she advertised that she and Matt Monarch were going to be a part of the “Renegade Health Inner Circle“, I signed up for the free trial. After a couple weeks I was still stumbling around the [...]
