Now that the weather is getting nicer (ahem, unless you live in North Dakota), it’s that time of year when we can take the kids outside and engage in our favorite activities from our own childhoods! How many times have you caught yourself saying, “When I was a kid, we…” only to hear your little […]

I am on Day4 of Level 3 on the 30-Day Shred, and maybe it’s just me, but it seems to be getting harder each day rather than easier. I mean, I’m already sweating and out of breath after the freaking warm up! By the time I hit circuit 2 I’m ready to die, and when […]

Okay, folks, I know times are hard. Seriously, I do. If my electricity bill doesn’t come down soon, I may have to consider moving back in with my parents. If so, you WILL see me go insane.
So, how many of us want to go to the gym but can’t afford that gym membership? OR we […]

Okay, all of you shredders (you ARE still shredding, aren’t you?) and work out peeps, listen up! You have the exercising part down pat now, but do you have the nutrition part figured out?
When someone says to me, “oh, you can’t have this cupcake because you’re on a DIET,” or “what diet are you on,” […]

So yesterday, I felt like a fumbling, stumbling mess on day 1 of level 2. I should have previewed it like Lisa did! Today was much better because I didn’t feel like I had to stop to keep checking if I was doing to moves right. Here are my thoughts from today!
I was not as […]

Did you know that exercise can reduce stress? Okay, I am sure we all HEAR that, but how many of us actually follow that advice? This is a subject that hits close to home with me, and I often find myself slacking on the exercise when I am stressed the most! And I KNOW I […]

OMG. I just finished my first day in Level 2 of the 30 Day Shred. I am literally dripping with sweat.
First off, I want to ask those of you who are shredding… the last two days I have been having lower back pain and on the left side it goes down into my ass. Not […]

I’m putting it out there for the whole wide world to see. If I ever find myself faltering at this weight loss/healthy lifestyle thing, then I will pull out these pictures and remind myself of why I am doing this. These pictures- they are my motivation.
The first picture in each set was taken Day 1 […]

I finished Day 10 of Shredding earlier today, Phase 1. I seem to think about shredding all day long, way before I actually DO IT and long way after it’s DONE.
I am starting Phase 2 of the Shred tomorrow morning. I have a few thoughts on Phase 1, as well as Phase 2 running incessantly through […]

1. I’m still shredding. This should be Day 8. 2. I only did about 1/3 of the program on Friday and skipped Saturday. Now I don’t know what I should do… call today Day 1, Day 6, or Day 8????
3. I did awesome with my eating last week. Until Friday. I was actually down a few […]

Happy Easter! I’m out of town, visiting my parents for the weekend. Yes, I have probably indulged a bit too much in “the good food”- hey, I am human and can admit that. But I am also proud to say that I have continued shredding, on the road. Today, I had an audience : ).
Is it […]

Back in the fall of ‘08, I came across Christie on her blog, Baby Tea Leaves. She was hosting a “Hot for the Holidays” challenge and I decided to participate. Ever since then, I have watched her succeed in goal after goal! Christie is truly an inspiration! I asked Christie if she would be interested […]

For about ten seconds after my alarm went off at 5:10 this morning, I was wondering who in the world set my alarm to go off that early. Oh, yeah. I did. Why? Oh, yeah. I was told yesterday, “everyday is a work out day now.” To the one who told me that, um, thanks. […]

- Choose You
I’m guilty of it and you probably are too. Most women are, in fact.
What am I talking about? Putting your own health on the back burner to attend to the needs (and, let’s face it, WANTS) of others. There’s laundry to wash, fold, and put away. Breakfasts, lunches and dinners to prepare. Sporting events, rehearsals, […]
