But still, I’ve been really active and feeling terrific about all that I’ve been doing. And yet the scale has been a [...]

..and should’ve known that I’m more of a 2011 kinda girl. LOL. Wednesday night I went to Intermediate Step for the first time. I was looking forward to the class because I used to love going to step aerobics…back in the mid-1990′s. I even took step aerobics as my PE in college one semester. I [...]

Tonight I tried Pilates for the first time, and since I wanted to make sure I knew what I was getting into, I tried to look up information about what the class was all about before I got to the gym. I didn’t find too much specific information about what the actual class would entail [...]

Ever since my sister and I went to the gym on Saturday, I’ve had a fire within me that is amazing. I’m feeling inspired, renewed, and invigorated. And better yet, I’m ACTING on it. I’m not just “making plans,” but I’m completing them. And I’m proud to tell you that yesterday I went to the [...]

This morning LC and I headed to a Zumba class bright and early (ok, at 10am, but since it’s Saturday, that’s fairly bright and early to leave the house, right?). It was the first time LC and I went to the gym together, and what a great time we had. For so long LC would [...]

(No, this isn’t a [...]

(Image by Ben Davis) Sometimes life leads you in the right direction, if you’re open enough to accept it. I like to have a mantra for the year that I set up for myself. Usually something that wraps up the way I want to live my life, something that gives me motivation and inspiration, and [...]

Yesterday I went to the doctor, and I walked out with more than I’d bargained for. The initial reason for my visit was because I’d been having fairly severe lower back pain as well as numbness in my right arm, from my shoulder to my fingertips. After examining me, the doctor said that she wasn’t [...]
