Life is all about doing things at  the right time. Knowing when to go, when to speak, knowing when to stop. For me this week  was a test of knowing when to stop… eating. This past week I wanted to snack more, take seconds at dinner, drink endless bottles of wine and scarf down all […]

During the week at work, finding time to take a lunch is often difficult. I  often found myself eating on the go out of “not so nutritious” vending machines and feeling hungry and horrible in just a sew short hours. My body was not getting the nutrition it needed at work. Snacks loaded with sugar,fats […]

There is one thing that has seriously been lacking in my workouts the last few months: stretching! I usually go straight from my cardio routine to strength training. I know I SHOULD be doing it and I really don’t have a reason why I haven’t been doing it other than pure laziness! So the last […]

To be quite honest, when I awoke I wanted to stay in my nice warm bed all day. I didn’t want to go to work and I certainly didn’t want to weigh myself today. I was doubting myself a bit. I knew that I had tried to squeeze in exercise and that this week was […]

This past weekend, I ate my way through went to Houston for an early Christmas with my parents. Oh yes, I ate. And ate, and ate. I’m actually a little ashamed of myself right now. Okay, ALOT ashamed of myself. I’m afraid to even go within 10 feet of my scale because it might start […]
