The holidays are kicking my butt! How about you? I’ve thrown diet & exercise into the snow, stomped on it, let the dog diddle there, & covered it under layers of sand & salt. Well, to be more accurate: sugar & fat. But, you get the idea. It’s been quite a pig-out fest at my house.
I [...]

Lately, when I’ve looked in the mirror, I have liked what I see. This has made it difficult for me to stick to my exercise & diet plans. And, although I think self-loathing is NEVER good! I do think it is helpful to remind ourselves that what our mind can tell us is “good enough” sometimes still [...]

It is incredible to think that, when I started this journey, I thought I knew what I needed to do. I thought I needed to reclaim my life, & what that meant was to weigh approximately 135 — even though what I *really* wanted to weigh was what I weighed in high school — even [...]

Changed my mind! I *will* post my exercises daily I think this will be a great way to start anew & keep me honest. If it gets too oppressive I may change my mind again. But, as we all know, that’s my prerogative.
As an aside, who knew “prerogative” is spelled like that? I totally [...]

I’ve been in a workout slump lately. The kickboxing classes I attend at my gym are now *way* *to* *crowded* (thanks in part to my awesome instructors being voted best in the city - kudos to them, but ugh for me). So, I’ve started working out at home & I’ve incorporated yogalates/walking/jumping rope/etc… into my [...]
