The Sisterhood of the Shrinking Jeans – Part 48

My goodness, I don’t know where too start. Yesterday after the first day, I had so much energy it was insane. I loved it. I also found it necessary to keep moving so my muscles wouldn’t burn. Yes, they were burning like a calf getting branded. Ouch.
So this morning when I got up, I was […]

One of the things we all struggle with while trying to lose weight is eating in moderation.  Above that?  Eating in moderation during the holidays.  Holiday get togethers are traditionally centered around food, which pretty much sucks because it’s nearly impossible to turn down my sister’s cheesecake or my Mom’s potato salad, so I’m not […]

Gosh, you gotta love holidays, right? Just when you think you’re in the clear, another one comes along! This time we’re being tempted with candy coated chocolate eggs, chocolate bunnies just begging for their ears to be bitten off, and sugar-coated marshmallow birds! Oy! As usual, Weight Watchers hits me with an email yesterday that […]

I came across this recipe on Weight Watchers Online today and hope to try it this weekend. Ham is a staple around our house for Easter, but as you know, it’s just not that good for you. So anytime I find a recipe to lighten up a favorite, I give it a whirl!
If ham isn’t […]

Since we started the 30 Day Shred at the Sisterhood today, we think it would be a great idea to have a mini-challenge that revolves around water consumption! If you’re Shredding with us, you should be drinking so much water!! Water will help your muscles release the toxins and keep you from feeling so sore. […]

Let’s just hope it continues beyond Day One. ;o)
I did the usual gym-thing after taking the twins to school this morning. I did 30 minutes on the Precor AMT and 30 minutes on the Precor EFX for a total of 4.6 miles. Not too shabby since I was doing the hill workouts! I decided to […]

It was as not as bad as I thought it was going to be.  I think the expectation in my head far exceeded what the Shred actually was, FOR ME.

Don’t get me wrong.  It was hard and I was “heavy beathing” before the first circuit was over.  And push-ups are the hardest exercise out there and […]

Because we know what’s […]

Monday, April 6th, marks the first of the 30 day Shred Challenge. What does this mean for you?  Lots of sweat, sore legs, burning arms, sore abs and maybe even some tears.  And no, I’m not trying to scare you, I’m just telling you what to expect.

But I want to tell you what else to expect.  […]

So the past two weeks I didnt’ post, but I did work alot and eat alot.  So I’m not exactly where I want to be weight wise at the moment.  I’m still under 3 bills but not near as much as I would have been if I hadn’t lost focus. 
Lucky for me I’m married to […]

My long, chatty post about my weekend is over here, at my first bloggy home.  For now, I will tease you with a few pictures. 
While it was warm enough to sit poolside and relax…..

only one of us was crazy brave enough to jump in the water.  It was a tad chilly.

While Christy is normally tied at […]
