SO...four months ago I decided to stop eating meat. When I made this choice I did not realize how large of an impact it would have on my life. If you are thinking about making the switch, here are 5 things that changed when i became a vegetarian.  1.)  I didn't get bloated anymore.  I'm going to start this one off with a disclaimer: I am not a scientist or a food expert or anything. I am only sharing my experience with what happened to my body. I used to have stomach aches every single night. I would feel so heavy right before I went to bed and I couldn't figure out why. When I stopped eating meat, I stopped having these stomach aches and bloating. Now, becoming a vegetarian has made me make healthier choices when choosing what I eat so I am not saying that eating meat made me bloat, but cutting out meat made me be more choosy on what I was eating and solved my stomach issue.  2.) I lost weight.  AGAIN, I'm not saying that meat is bad for you. You can...

Day One: The One Sided Boho Braid  For the One Sided Boho Braid I did a simple dutch braid down one side of my head, pulling at the braid every 2-3 inches. It is much easier to pull at the braid while braiding than to try and pull it all at the end. This look gave me serious bohemian vibes all day and I can see it being a summer favorite!  Day Two: Wrapped Ponytail  The wrapped ponytail is a staple in my hair looks. It is so easy to create and it turns a normal ponytail super-chic in just a few seconds. Most people try to achieve this look by wrapping the strand around the ponytail and bobby pinning it in place. I tried to do this a few times, but you could always see the bobby pins and they would start falling out mid day. Another way to achieve this look is with a Topsy Tail Hair Styler. This will work wonderfully, but what if you don't have one? Enter my hair hack. Start by putting the hair into a ponytail. Take another ponytail and put i...

Sweet Potato Toast Recipe  Recipe Video  Sooooo.... I lovee toast, if I could eat it for breakfast everyday I would. However, I am trying to reduce the amount of carbs I eat, (isn'teveryone?)  so starting my day off with two pieces of bread isn't going to cut it anymore. I tried this recipe for the first time this week and to my surprise it's actually delicious! It is only fair that I pass it along to anyone else who is looking to cut carbs, So here it is, a recipe for sweet potato toast. Ingredients Needed  Sweet Potato  Eggs  Salt & Pepper to taste Directions  Slice sweet potato into toast size slices. Sweet potatoes can be difficult to slice so be extra careful during this step.  Turn oven on to "broil."  Place sweet potato toast slices onto oven rack and cook for 5-7 minutes, checking frequently.  Time for Eggs! Grab you frying pan and butter/grease it to keep the eggs from sticking....

 1.) Olay Total Effects Refreshing Citrus Scrub Facial Cleanser $6.99 This is the most refreshing, citrus smelling face wash. I would say calling it a "scrub" is a stretch, but it definitely exfoliates. This face wash leaves your face feeling cool and smooth. This is the perfect face wash to wake you up in the morning and leave your skin feeling fresh all day.  2.) St. Ives Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub $3.64 If you are looking for an intense scrub that gets deep down into the pores, look no further. This has been one of my all time favorite face scrubs because it really exfoliates the skin and leaves it feeling squeaky clean.
