Hippie Food & Sweatpants

My name is Angela. Nice to meet you!

I am a 30-something mother, Recruiting Manager, and blogger.

I have an amazing daughter and a great little dog.

I was always petite and never worried about nutrition, food intake, exercise, or any of that healthy stuff. When I was an Army medic, I was extremely fit and toned. The Army made me exercise and monitored all my nutrition. It was great never having to think about these things for myself.

After becoming a mother I have struggled with my weight, health, and body image. Like most mamas, I focus on everyone else around me. I oftentimes forget that I need to make myself a priority.

I absolutely LOVE food. I am definitely a foodie who needs to focus on healthy alternatives and moderation. Moderation; what is that!?

It is my goal to eat healthy and get active. It is a complete lifestyle change and I have my ups and downs.

I share my adventures in healthy living with others because it helps with accountability and it's a fun outlet to share my successes and failures on my blog, Hippie Food & SweatPants. You should check it out for more information, helpful hints, recipes, exercise tips, to laugh at my mishaps, and provide virtual hugs for my successes.
