Last night I want to my Friday evening Zumba class, and I wanted to give my thoughts about how the Reebok RealFlex sneakers worked for that type of exercise. At first it was a bit difficult getting used to not having a shoe keeping me confined, like my other sneakers used to. I sort of [...]

New Shoes = New Goals

I’m not sure if you guys remember when I had signed up for the San Diego Rock n Roll Half Marathon with Team in Training, but had to withdraw because I was getting terrible numbness in my feet/legs/hips. It was disappointing on a lot of levels – I couldn’t achieve a goal that I’d set [...]

I knew this morning that as much as I crossed my fingers and hoped for the best, it just wasn’t going to be pretty on the scale. I did my best with exercise during the week, but since the doctor told me to stick to low/no impact workouts, I had to cut the classes out [...]
Out of Sorts & Off Track – No More OFF Days
Posted in Do Life, goals, healthy choices, life, mental changes, moderation, weight loss on July 26, 2011 | 1 Comment »
I’m not sure exactly when it happened, but at some point over the weekend, I got off track. And at this point in my weight loss journey I can recognize just how dangerous that feeling can be. Saturday I went to bikram yoga, had a jeans meltdown, and attended at baseball game. Pretty balanced. Sunday [...]
Yesterday I Got SMOOSHED!
Posted in feeling good, health, life, tagged breast cancer, mammogram, women's health on July 26, 2011 | 3 Comments »
And no, not in that good, Jersey Shore kind of way. I got a mammogram. I barely turned 40 and I already had my first mammogram scheduled, which makes me feel like I’m taking care of business. Last week when I went to the doctor to have her look at my pulled muscle, they noticed [...]
“Don’t Let Your Jeans Get You Down”

Something really unexpected happened yesterday; I got emotional over some jeans. But let me give you the background… The day started out really well – I went to Bikram yoga and me my friend Ani. I hadn’t been to a hot yoga class in at least 6 months, and it was just as challenging as [...]
Bella Cooks: Italian Evening Summer Salad

I made the best salad tonight for dinner and I just had to share it with you. My mom found it in some magazine (sorry, I don’t know which one), and it is easy, delicious, and best of all, it reminds me of the beautiful summer evenings I spent in Italy. Since arugula, cantaloupe, and [...]

Yes, this week’s Weigh-In Wednesday is on Thursday, but since it’s summer, I figure I can bend the rules like that once in a while. I am so glad that I postponed the weigh-in, because this morning the scale reflected what it’s been showing me all week: Which means I lost 4.2 pounds this [...]
Weigh-In Wed: POSTPONED
Posted in weight loss on July 20, 2011 | 2 Comments »
I normally wouldn’t postpone a weigh in hoping for better results on the scale, but all week I’ve been seeing really great numbers, and this morning, after a night out with the girls where two Sangria Swirls (sangria mixed with frozen margarita) were consumed, the scale is being bitchy. I made great food choices all [...]

Happy Tuesday, Everyone! This morning I’m supposed to be getting ready to go to my first-ever spin class. But I’m not. You see, the pulled muscle/pinched nerve in my back is really bad this morning and I’d rather not push it. I have a doctor’s appointment later this afternoon, and I’m looking forward to [...]
