Hi everyone and welcome to new and improved HealthingIt! I’m really excited that you’re here 
I want to take a moment to explain some new blog additions and then move on to my first ever giveaway! A few words about the pages:
AND YOU ARE?
…tells a little bit about the blog and my weight story with some pics. Once I get to the more horrendous ones on my desktop in Brooklyn, I’ll be sure to share them with you.
RECIPES
is where I’ll share my heartfelt poetry and prose with you….Or, you know, recipes.
A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS
is where I’ll be posting some of my fave foodie/drinkie products.
HEALTHY LIVING RESOURCES
is an ever growing library of web resources that have to do with healthy living, eating and exercise. I hope to update this page frequently and would love to take your suggestions as well!
BLOGROLL
If I had you on my blogroll before and you don’t see yo’ fine self there anymore, my mistake! Let me know so I can promptly add you. Any new readers who’d like to be on the BlogRoll, feel free to let me know!
I would love any and all feedback on the new HealthingIt. Please update your feeders/readers if they don’t do so automatically. Also, I am new to WordPress, so I might eff things up a lot at first. Forgive me 
And now…for the giveaway! Some of you might remember my freak out about Kellogg’s All Bran cereal and it’s sugar & high fructose corn syrup content.
After that I thought, “I wish I could just control the contents of my cereal.” Well guess what? You can!
Thanks to [ME] & GOJI you can choose the ingredients of your ideal cereal and get it shipped to you!
“you design your cereal online from our 30+ all natural and organic ingredients. We hand mix it in New England and ship it to your home within a week in our cereal capsule.”
I encourage you to check out the website for more information about the company’s philosophy, sustainability commitment and socially conscious business practices.
…So if you designed your own cereal what would be your base?
- artisan cereal
- flaxed and flaked
- samurai wheat
- raw 5-grain muesli
- healthy hoops
- golden granola
And what would be your fruit additions?
- goji berries
- mango
- mulberry
- cranberry
- coconut
- currant
- goldenberry
Perhaps, some nuts?
- chia
- pumpkin
- amaranth
- brazil
- almond
- soy
- pistachio
This is by no means an exhausted list of possibilities! Is your diet gluten-free? No worries! That’s available too! And what else? Each cereal capsule is packed with 50% more cereal (21oz, 600g) than the average box.
To celebrate the new HealthingIt and to protest all HFCS from cereals forever, one lucky reader will win a $20 gift certificate to design the cereal of their choice!
Here’s how to enter, most of you know the drill:
- If you have a blog: Mention the giveaway on your blog with a link back to this post. Leave me a comment to tell me you’ve done so and you’re entered in the drawing!
- If you don’t have a blog: leave a comment on this post saying hi (or anything, really ) and you’ll be entered!
I will randomly choose a winner next Monday, March 9th! Good luck!
Thanks for visiting the new blog! Down with highly processed cereals forever!
Regular posting begins here tomorrow

Shanks, I would like the recipe for your oatmeal cookie breakfast monster. It sounds like its right up my ally. I also think that making me some dinner would be great practice for when you become the most famous food blogger in the world. I find it interesting that you are doing a cereal give away since you don’t eat much cereal (haha). I can’t wait to see the picture of a delicious burrito on the blog this Friday.
