It is most definitely January! I was loving all your awesome posts this week filled with healthy living, eating and weight loss tips. I had a very hard time narrowing down the selection for this week’s roundup. It was tough! And can we say social media overload? My brain is fried!

In my usual Sunday style, I’m sharing with you the best links I uncovered from the week so grab your coffee and catch up on what you missed in this edition of the Sunday Skinny. P.S. Be sure to stop by tomorrow for an awesome recipe and giveaway!

Love the guilt free weight loss post too! As healthy living bloggers we lose perspective and speak from what we experience, I think. Should I read why not to monetize your blog! Lol 🙂
