So….there are four days left in 2013. It’s that time of year when we reassess what we’ve done this year and what we will change next year. Every year, I set the same goal as the year before. I will lose weight and get in shape. Every year, I get a little closer to that […]

So every week, we create posts tailored to our wonderful Sisterhood readers…AKA all of you! The truth is, without our wonderful followers, there would be no SJ community. Well, there might be, but it would be A LOT smaller. We’ve touched on running, weights, diet, giveaways, recipes, staying on track, falling off the wagon, nutrition, […]

“Be careful about reading health books. You may die of a misprint.” -Mark Twain- Getting healthy is all about knowledge. Yes, there’s conflicting advice and yes, it takes time and patience to change old habits, but reading up on the latest information and insight into nutrition and holistic health is one of the most powerfully […]

Hi everyone!  I wanted to introduce you all to a friend of mine.  Laura and I worked together for many years and we still keep in touch through Facebook and the like.  She is super encouraging and motivational, plus Laura has done something so many of you are doing – changing her lifestyle and becoming […]

For many of us, Sundays are a day of rest. Maybe for you, that means going to church, spending some down time with your friends and family, having a day “off” from any kind of schedule whatsoever or gearing up for the week ahead. It might also  mean a rest day and a break from […]

Back in December of 2011, I had the pleasure of doing an email interview with Ali Vincent. I had met her the November before when she did an appearance for the local hospital. She was amazing and inspiring. I loved every minute of that night listening to her talk about her life with Biggest Loser […]

After posts about my injury and what I can’t do, I am so excited to declare this Toot Your Horn Tuesday because I have something to be happy about. I am still about a week away from getting my inserts for my shoes, but things are finally beginning to get a little better with my […]

So, now that we have survived Thanksgiving, it’s time to look ahead to the next month staring straight at us. DECEMBER! Can you believe tomorrow is Dec. 1, already? The pace of life starts to really pick up right about NOW. Houses to decorate, gifts to buy, Mall Santas to visit, parties to attend, cards […]

  I realize that most of us are out shopping today for all those Black Friday deals, I know I broke my own cardinal rule and actually went shopping on Thanksgiving night! Please don’t hate me!! It was fun and I got a few good deals with a friend! but we still need to take a […]

It’s that time of year when we start to get a little nostalgic. It’s when we begin to remember the past year and all the things that came with it. It’s that time of year when we become thankful more so than other times of the year. We talked about being thankful with our preschoolers […]

If I had to choose one word to describe how I feel right now, it would have to be *overwhelmed*.  Raise your hand if that’s you.  I have too much on my plate and I am drowning.  Something needs to give or my mind just might explode.  I went back to work permanent part-time when the kids […]

  Most of y’all know that I am a Susan G. Komen 3-Day walker. Some of y’all know that I just finished walking my third Komen 3-Day 60 mile yes, 60 miles is a LOT of miles walk in beautiful San Diego, California. Today I wanted to talk a bit about my adventures this past weekend […]

With the holidays fast-approaching, stress levels can rise as bank account numbers magically decrease. As you spend time, thought, and dollars on celebratory events and gifts (for others, of course), your health and fitness doesn’t have to get cast to the wayside because of finances. Being a health nut on a budget is possible, and […]

The doctor sat at his desk writing. He turned around, handed me a paper and said, “Go home and Google this. You know you’ll do it anyway”. The paper said tibial posterior tendonitis and I did go home and Google it. Per The American Health Network…. Description Tendonitis can be a common problem in the […]

  November is a time to reflect on giving thanks and counting our blessings. I realize most of us will do this “formally” on Thanksgiving in just a couple of weeks, but I want to take a few minutes and do it now, too!   First and for most, I am thankful to God for […]
