This past week I was able to go out for a walk on Saturday with DH, a close friend from high school whom I reconnected with recently, via Facebook. She and I had such a nice time – getting some exercise, inspiring each other, and of course, catching up on lots of gossip. I had [...]

(I know this picture is huge, but I wanted you to be able to see them in all their glory!).
This weekend, I decided to treat myself and buy these Calphalon pans that I’ve been dying to get for over a year and a half. Macy’s had a terrific Memorial Day Sale going on, and the [...]

Things have been going great with the walking this week, and I’m loving every minute of it. I haven’t had a lot of time to go out and explore new places to walk, so the walks have continued to take place in my neighborhood, which is great. The only thing is, these posts are [...]

This week’s post is going to be a quick one.
Things are going really well – status quo is actually a good place to be at the moment – I’m exercising regularly (6+ days a week) and eating really healthy. I’m continuing to lose weight each week, which is fantastic. Things are going really smoothly.
Which is [...]

The walking has been going phenomenally well. It’s become part of the day that I really look forward to. A time when I can focus on myself, my goals, and what I want to accomplish. No matter what kind of day I’ve been having (and believe me, last week I had a few doozy [...]

This week I had decided to switch my meeting day to Thursday evening. I was really looking forward to attending the meeting, and was prepared to see a slight loss or even a slight gain, because I was switching from morning meetings to evening.
I went home yesterday after school and decided it was time to [...]
Biggest Loser Finale – She was robbed!

I was really looking forward to the finale last night. This season has been so much better than the previous one, and although there was som game play involved, no one was ugly or awful to each other. I truly liked most of the contestants, and would’ve been happy seeing any of them win, although [...]

My ass, that is! This week there have been a bunch of little things going on, so I’ll give it to you in bullets:
I lost 2 pounds this past week, which really broke through a plateau/little gains cycle I was in
I made crockpot oatmeal using Irish steel cut oats and loved it! 1 cup [...]
Should I buy a Bodybugg/GoWearFit?
Posted in exercise, fitness, health, weight loss, working out, tagged Bodybugg, GoWearFit on May 11, 2009 | 19 Comments »
I’ve been thinking more and more about purchasing a Bodybugg. You know, the armband “calorie management system” that measures your steps, your calories burned, and even your calories taken in (if you enter your food intake into the website they provide). Biggest Loser contestants wear one, although I’ve read recently that the newer models are [...]
