crap like this drives me crazy.
“Fit” popcorn? wtf.
a huge pet peeve of mine is throwing the word “FIT” or “HEALTHY” or “NATURAL” on something for marketing purposes so people think they can eat a lot of it and they are being healthy.
besides. popcorn, if you just purchase kernels, cook it, and eat it without anything, is pretty healthy/fine to eat in general. adding your little herbs and spices actually makes it slightly less ‘fit’ than if you just ate it in its natural state.
to me it’s like putting a sticker on a banana that says “FIT BANANA”
STOP IT. EVERYONE LOOK AT THIS. AND THEN STOP IT.

progress!
Pretty sure I’ve lost a pound or two - not weighing in at 146 anymore - usually more like 144 or so. Also pretty sure I’ve gained some muscle, especially in my legs. jump squats for the win! I just really want to be healthy and fit, so as long as I’m eating wholesome awesome food and giving my body the exercise it wants, I’m happy!
I’ve made a conscious decision to push HARD at the gym, and I can’t wait to see how this will affect me in a few weeks!
