Hello hello! Happy Hump Day! You know what that means – Wednesday is here and therefore, hopefully by the time you are reading this you have already  hopped on the scale to weigh in for our Spring Fling Weight Loss Challenge. How did you do in Week 2? Is your momentum still going strong? Are […]

Did you all see Christy’s recent post about her love of  gadgets and how they motivate her to keep moving? Let me just say, I can relate, sisters! I feel the same way about health and fitness apps.  In honor of my six month anniversary of being a proud owner of my very first smartphone, […]

It’s Toot Your Horn Tuesday and I’m feeling quite “tootable” today. Where to start, where to start??? Let’s start with it’s week two of the new challenge and so far, I have stayed under my starting weight! I have tried to keep my eating in check and exercising most days. It seems to be working. […]

I was woken up too early and now I’m overtired and kid one is on the computer where I want to work and kid two needs my assistance every 2.5 minutes and my husband is breathing too loudly and looking at me funny and I can tell it’s going to be a terrible, horrible, no […]

  Hi gang! It’s my first time since I had the honor of becoming a contributing writer here at the ‘Hood that it’s my turn for the weekly Toot Your Horn Tuesday post! For those of you who are new to the site, today is the day where we brag, brag, brag about ourselves. No […]

It took me awhile, but I’ve learned that if I don’t like it, I won’t do it. I know that I need to exercise, but I had to figure out what makes me want to exercise. You have to like what you are doing. And finally, I do!! I was kind of lost for a […]

A few weeks ago, I started a new exercise plan. I was motivated. I was focused. I was 100% dedicated to seeing it through. And then my world kind of imploded. My husband’s accident and becoming a full-time student once more came in the same week. I could have handled maintaining my exercise plan and full-time school. But the added responsibility […]

The new calendar for writing assignments came out last week. I saw that my first post was on October 6 and it said Saturday Review. I immediately knew what I would do. I had received a new FitBit to replace my old one that had broken. Somehow, somewhere, it was just gone one day. I […]

I have been doing a lot of walking and hiking lately. The picture is from Sunday when I went and did some hiking out at Coffee Creek Park with Katie and Hoss. I liked being out with them because Hoss doesn’t let you stop and rest. He keeps you moving at all times. Tonight, I […]

I was with a friend at a cook out over Labor Day weekend when we got to talking about an upcoming 10k and 5k  in our area.  Like me, she is relatively new to the whole running thing. When I looked at the registration form online, I grew a bit intimidated.  It had too many […]

It’s time to lace up your shoes for a SPOOKTACULAR event, and get ready to RUN FOR YOUR LIFE! The Sisterhood of the Shrinking Jeans 5th Virtual 5K/10K – Run the ‘Hood – is going spooky with a Zombie Dash! In honor of the great workout you’ll be giving your heart, this year we’re giving 10% of […]

Well my friends, if it is Tuesday, it must be time for some bragging. Tooting, if you will. Did you exercise like a maniac? Did you do a race of some kind and kick butt? Did you meal plan and stick with it every day? Maybe you ate really well. Whatever wonderful thing you did, […]

  This is a tale of two people. One has this on her mind: She thinks often of her quest for fitness. She has learned the importance and value of exercise for both her health and her sanity. She fits workouts into a busy schedule. She moves. She breathes. She feels good about her efforts […]

It has been 18 days since I arrived with the times and purchased my first smartphone, which meant giving up this bad boy, also known as my Fischer-Price phone. Now I am the proud owner of an  iPhone 4S. How did I ever live without it?  In just two short weeks it has become a […]

July has been my month for really getting into fitness. The funny thing about that statement is that I have been on vacation over three weeks of the month. I promise you it’s true though. I started the month with those glorious nine days in NYC. Remember all the walking, sharing meals and heat? Then […]
