Ahhhhh yes.  Summertime is upon us.  Which can only mean one thing.  Swimsuit time Will I ever wear a bikini again? Probably not since the last time I wore one was over 15 years, before 3 pregnancies, and a *few* pounds less.  I’m still searching for that miracle bathing suit that lifts the “girls”, minimizes […]

This week has been ugly. I don’t even really want to confess, but I will. I’ll take one for the team.  Here goes:
1) My birthday was last Wednesday. It started out great – I ate a healthy breakfast, then Subway for lunch. Not bad, right? I know. Then all Hell broke loose in the form […]

You ready for some quotes? Oh, I’ve got quotes… Supposing you have tried and failed again and again.  You may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing we call “failure” is not the falling down, but the staying down.  ~Mary Pickford

As I read through several weigh in posts on Wednesday, I noticed […]

Some of you may remember that way back when Team Shrinking Jeans was formed, that I was a part of it. Also, if you know me at all, then you know that there is no part of running that I like. Every single minute feels like pure torture to me, but I decided […]

Alright. I’m going to be totally honest. Sometimes I think about getting plastic surgery. Have you ever thought about that? I think you’d be hard pressed to find a woman who hasn’t thought about it at least once in their lives.

I don’t think I would ever actually HAVE plastic surgery, but that doesn’t mean I don’t […]

Twenty-one days, come and gone. Is it just me or did that just whoosh by?
They say it takes twenty one days to make or break habits. How did you do? Did you kick that nighttime snacking? Are you drinking water like it’s going out of style? Maybe you made a commitment to just LOVE yourself […]

    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, […]
