We’ve been really into trying new things in our household this summer. So much so that we sometimes have trouble keeping up with what’s next. A huge part of that always behind feeling has to do with having kids, as any other parent will surely attest … they’re always running around wanting to do something. [...]
Hello Shrinking Sisters and Brothers. How is it going? Have you melted from the sweltering heat yet? I don’t know about your neck of the woods, but it’s hotter than hell down here in Texas. H-O-T. The heat isn’t really doing much for me either, other than making me want to stay inside with my [...]

You read that right! Now, I know some of you MAY be saying, “What is a Tworkout, April?” I am so glad that you asked. If you’ll take notice at the image above, you see a very simple mathematical equation. We all hop onto Twitter at 8 p.m. Central and we all work out [...]
Does anyone come to dread Tuesdays? Or do you look at it as an opportunity for the ultimate in accountability? “The truth shall set you free” and all that? Just curious. And I’m rambling. And avoiding. LOL! Denial ain’t just a river in Egypt. My transgressions have been light this week, but they are there [...]
I met Heidi from The Write Fit at Fitbloggin’ (she was the awesome chic with JumpSport Fitness Trampoline™!) and we just clicked. She told me she’d love to write for us about self-sabotage, and I’m thrilled to share her thoughts with all of you! We have all been there. We have all been on diets, [...]

So I’m watching my BFF’s kids this weekend (plus my own three) and have been oh so busy tending to them, taking them to birthday parties, taking them swimming, refereeing a disagreement here or there, cooking, cleaning, attempting to finish my defensive driving course (doh!), exercising, working with my husband on the design part of [...]

As the last school bell rang this month, ushering out the 2010-2011 school year, kids everywhere jumped for joy at the sudden freedom that comes with summer break. If their moms were anything like me, their first thought was “Let the juggling begin!” One of the hardest parts of summer break for me is finding [...]
Thank you all for patiently waiting for me to bunker down for the night and get the leaderboard finished! I’m in Montana… almost home! :) I am deathly tired and hope I am making sense. I am excited to say that the Top Shrinking Team this week had ALL FIVE members check-in! Not many teams [...]
Hello!!! I am just letting you know that the leaderboard will not be up until late tonight! I have been slaving over it all morning and I am just not going to be able to get it done before I have to check out of this hotel! SORRY! The demands of a traveling family of [...]
Whether or not the weather where you live is complying (it’s not here, FYI), Summer has finally arrived! Summer, for many of us, means the kids are at home and out of school (and probably BOOOORRRREEED) and you either don’t want to go to the gym or work out cause you don’t have time [...]
