I’ve been thinking hard about what I want out of myself for 2009. Here’s my list:
1. Embrace my 30s. (Do I have a choice?!) I do, however, have a choice about how I embrace this new decade in my life. I plan to have a good attitude about the whole aging deal and in turn, […]

Confession: I haven’t been to the gym ALL WEEK.
True, the kids are home on Christmas break which makes it that much more of a pain-in-the-ass, but I think I was beginning to feel a little burnt out. After four months of hitting it hard, I think this break is just what I needed. Now on […]

That is my mood today. I ate lots of good food last night, stayed up past my bedtime, had a couple of drinks (but only a few!). I am feeling lazy and tired today and I am just going to go with it. The kids and I are going to have a lax day, heck, […]

Today is coming out day. Time to come clean about just how much damage was inflicted upon our bodies this holiday season. I stepped on the scale and closed my eyes this morning. I am up 0.8, and you know what? I’ll take it. Granted, it may take awhile for the “damage” to catch up […]

Holy cow. Did Christmas just really happen? I mean seriously? Is today REALLY New Year’s Eve?
Yes, yes, yes, I know. Not all of us at the Sisterhood were present during this oh-so-difficult dieting hurdle. Heck, some of us even gained a couple of pounds. Yeah, I know, it sucks, but we are trying to keep […]

Shrinking? Hell no. Growing and wearing elastic pants? Hell yes. I’m just being honest, ya’ll. The only reason I’m even writing this post is because Christy guilted me into it. Thanks hooka’. How are you shrinking, girl?
Anyhoo, the holidays have been all about excess, in all food forms. There is no discrimination […]

Wow, can you believe Christmas is over already?! It’s definitely a good thing because I just don’t know how my body would be able to handle anymore cookies. Or chocolate candies. Or cracked pepper and olive oil Triscuits. Mmmm. If you haven’t guessed it already, I did not do so well diet-wise over the holiday!
I […]

Have the holidays attacked us all or what?
With all the food to lure us away from our weight loss plans and the holiday rushing that kept us all from our exercising, now is the time to get back to business. For all of those beautiful souls who maintained their plan throughout the holiday, I stand […]

Not only has it been the season for all things Christmas but for a large majority of us it has been a cold and flu season as well. Nothing crashes a weight loss or exercise plan like not feeling well.
During the first few weeks of the “Dreaming of a light Christmas” here at the sisterhood, […]

This is one of the best chocolate-chip cookies you’ll ever make–and it doesn’t scrimp on chocolate. Applesauce is the secret. 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 3/4 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup applesauce 1 cup packed brown sugar 1/4 cup butter, softened 1 tablespoon vanilla extract 1 large egg 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips Cooking spray Preheat oven to 375°.
Lightly spoon flour into […]

Can’t get much easier than this and these are a much better alternative to the cookies I have been chowing on the last few days. FIBER ONE HAYSTACKS 6 servings, 1 point each 1 Hershey bar 2 Tbsp peanut butter 1 c. Fiber One cereal
Break chocolate into a bowl and add peanut butter. Microwave for 20 seconds […]

And I am obese. At least, this is what the Wii Fit just told me today! It also informed me that I have gained over 21 pounds since the last time I have gotten on it which was 163 days ago. Wow. If that isn’t a reality check, I don’t know what is! Shit.

How did everyone do with the mini-challenge this week? I got wrapped up in the Christmas hustle and bustle and only got 3 workouts in. I don’t have any excuses, I COULD have found a few minutes here and there to do some crunches, I just didn’t. How did you do?
This week, as things […]

Monday, 12/22: 45 minutes AMT, 30 minutes arm/ab weights.
How is everyone doing with getting their half hour of activity in? I personally didn’t do a whole lot this weekend -the windchills were near 40 below (still are!) and it is bitterly cold. Yuck! I went to the gym today and will go again tomorrow, […]
