Yes, I realize that today is Tuesday but I very badly need to “confess”. I am in an exercise funk. My last day to SHRED was Thursday. I have not shredded since and I have no desire to. I put my exercise clothes on this morning in hopes that by wearing them, I would feel [...]

I haven’t been around much lately, well, I have, but only behind the scenes, because I feel like a big, fat failure right now. I lost my momentum, had a couple of bad weeks, and then went out of town for a week. It seems like as soon as I quit shredding, it all went [...]
I love asparagus and this time of year it seems to be readily available and reasonably priced! This recipe is one I haven’t tried, but I do plan to make it this week. It sounds so fresh and light, but filling! I think I’ll substitute some Barilla Plus fettuccine noodles in place of regular because [...]

I hope that post title didn’t come across as rude. I certainly didn’t mean it that way. But, really… Why are you here? Yes, I know to get support in your weight loss journey. That’s the surface answer. But have you ever stopped to ask yourself why you want to lose weight? So many of [...]

Did you know that they put secret elastic waistbands in dockers ? Its very sneaky and completely hidden unless you were to pull on the fabric up above the pockets, which is covered by a belt anways. Some strange things have happened at work, but no one has tried to pull on my pockets checking [...]
I’m working on losing my muffin top….Are you? This will be a short post- I am so incredibly crazy busy today. I think I’ll do this “bullet-style”. This is Week 7 of our Shrink Into Summer Challenge- there is only ONE week left. How are you doing? Are you nearing your goals for this challenge? [...]

Just checking in! It’s been awhile since I have posted on my personal blog! I have been down for the count lately! Seems like I have been sick for ages now -took antibiotics last week, but they didn’t work. I guess I need to try something else. Remember my injury mid-Shred? Well, it is still [...]
