- During a benefits meeting, others ask for more personal days… you ask for a gym on the first floor - You get caught doing lunges in the break room - You get caught doing yoga in your office during break - You get caught doing karate in the bathroom - You get caught doings squats at the water cooler [...]

You’ve heard the expression ‘Eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a prince and dinner like a pauper’. I have been doing things a little backwards. Breakfast like a pauper, lunch like a king and dinner like a prince. It’s been 7 weeks and not a single pound lost, or gained for that matter. [...]

I remember my very first friend I made on my own in 1st grade. She didn’t live too far from me. We happened to be at the park at the same time and she walked over to my brother and I and said ‘You wanna go play on the swings?’ And I followed her over [...]

After a stead fast diet of holiday treats, starches, and carbs, oh my. My year ended 15lbs heavier. Who doesn’t gain weight over the holidays? Well… I don’t.

It was a long 2 weeks of not working out. I had family in town for the holidays and between working, shopping, cooking and entertaining I didn’t have the time, nor the space to squeeze in a workout. I did however, go ice skating, but that was the extent of my exercise…oh, and if you [...]

Celery for dinner, changed my commute to work by walking 4 miles a day 7 days a week. Yoga. No pasta, no breads. Only fruits, veggies, protein (YES, even organic chicken is back!) and multigrains. I eat every 3 hours, fruits, cheeses, veggies, grains…so I’m not starving. Scale hasn’t budged and INCH. NOTHING! What the heck is [...]

So to speak. After my failed 5K I knew I needed a break. And I took it. I had some other medical crap to deal with that made me take a break from working out, per doctors recommendation. In addition, I was really just looking for some social interaction. Having a workout buddy is a [...]

The answer is yes…everyone plateaus. I dont understand the science behind busting through one…but eating less and exercising more is NOT the way to do it. I asked advice from my friends and family, and my bff Dana told me to change up my workouts! That makes sense, work on different areas of my body. [...]
