Now that we have Fit Bottomed Eats, a site dedicated to healthy eats, it only makes sense that instead of FBG hosting the fourth-annual Noshies here, FBE would! So, yes, we are totally being a tease, but head on over to Fit Bottomed Eats for what will be a healthy eating good time! From our [...]
Don’t Fear the Fat! Why Your Body Needs Healthy Fats
Fat. That single word evokes a sense of panic in many. Don’t eat the fat! Buy the low-fat—always! But times they are a-changin’, kind of. And when it comes to high-quality, nutritious and natural fats (read: the stuff that comes from the earth and not the packaged, processed kinds), they are nothing to be afraid [...]
A Fit-Bottomed-Dude Approved Snack: Roasted Nuts
You didn’t think we could go all week without some mention of nuts, did you? I mean, come on. It is Fit Bottomed Dude’s Week! So, of course, we have to share this roasted nut recipe from Fit Bottomed Eats. Have to… Can’t Get Enough of these Roasted Nuts We’ve always known that roasted nuts [...]
Ignorance Is Bliss: The Flipside of Eating Well
When you know better, you do better. That’s what Oprah says anyways. So you’d assume that after finding the alkaline diet, eliminating dairy, gluten and sugar from my diet, and witnessing the benefits first hand, I’d never look back to the foods that left me feeling less than wonderful. You’d assume wrong. I had researched the [...]
How to Make Your Own Energy Bars at Home
It’s easy to get addicted to nutrition and energy bars. They’re just so quick. And convenient. And tasty. But, like most things that come in a shiny foil wrapper, they’re not the healthiest. Darn! Though many boast a mega-punch of protein, added vitamins/minerals, antioxidants and other good stuff, it’s hard to find an energy bar that doesn’t have a bunch of added [...]

Much more fit and way less scary than Frankenstein (you know us; we can never resist a good movie reference!), we are so so SO excited to announce that Fit Bottomed Eats is live! As you guys learned two weeks ago, we’ve been working on perfecting this project for months, and it is so cool to [...]
A Healthier Cookie That Doesn’t Taste “Diet-y”
Is it just me or when you hear that a cookie is packed with fiber, is low in sugar, has whole grains and is a healthy choice, do you also tend to think that the cookie isn’t going to be too tasty? For this reason, I have a tendency to let “diet” cookies sit on [...]
Trader Joe’s, Welcome Home
Trader Joe’s has opened a location in my city. After years of smuggling various nut butters and assorted treats home from other cities with a TJ’s, I can grab some Three-Layer Hummus on my way to my local Target. I’m a happy, happy gal. I stopped in the day after it opened and was thrilled [...]
Nectresse Review: Just How Sweet Is This New Natural Sweetener?
You guys remember a few months ago when we tried Arctic Zero and pretty much flipped over the natural low-calorie-sweetness power of monk fruit? Well, as we suspected, monk fruit is getting more and more popular. So much so that it caught the eye of the maker of Splenda, who launched Nectresse, its own all-natural [...]
Who’s Hungry? We Have Some Huge (and Yummy) News to Share!
Looking back, there have been some key points in FBG history. Redesigning our site comes to mind, as does launching Fit Bottomed Mamas and working out with the one and only Bob Harper. And, ladies, we’re about to add another monumental occasion to the list: the launch of our third site! Over the years, we’ve [...]
