Morning,
You know, I’ve been doing karate now for 2 weeks, stretching now for 3 weeks, weight lifting now for 1 week, P90x now for one week, and I’ve been fine and peachy and been healing really well.
Until.
Until today, when I decided to get a high picture of the karate kata class at the dojo. […]

Morning,
Well! As I had earlier reported, this morning I did the P90x Legs and Back DVD, along with Ab Ripper X. Great stuff, that….and by 9am, I was at the gym with my husband, ready to do my 55 minutes of treadmill cardio.
That went rather peachy, I must admit. Then I […]

Morning!
Recently I made quite the breakthru discovery with regards to adding protein to one’s diet!
I had just finished filling up a cup with coffee and was looking for my creamer. Then I spotted my vanilla flavored whey protein powder, and figured….why not? I used a heaping tablespoon of that for my coffee, […]

Morning,
Here’s a newsflash for you - if you eat 5 pounds of food, for at least the next 1/2 minute, you’ll weigh 5 pounds more.
It’s common sense, right? Until you digest and pass out whatever remains, your weight will increase by whatever you eat.
This is nothing to worry about - it’s the way […]

Morning!
For everyone who celebrates Christmas, have a super happy holiday and an awesomely relaxing week!
We plan on visiting the family and traveling to the Chinese buffet for the holiday dinner. I love going there for holiday occassions - great food that my kids actually *eat*, and no dishes I have to wash! […]

Morning,
One of the true glories of the Internet is that if you know where to look, you can probably find everything you need for free!
This includes diets as well. Here are some of the more popular resources and reviews I’ve come across:

Google Diet Books
Sparkpeople Free Diet Plans
No S Diet

Morning,
Ever have an insane urge to do Pilates? Ever wonder what the heck Pilates is?
I’ve tried it myself and let me tell you, it translates into a killer of a workout! From Wiki, it’s described like so:
Pilates was formed by Joseph Pilates during the First World War with the proposal […]

Morning!
Have you ever seen at diet or fitness forums those really cool weight loss trackers, that will show your starting weight, your goal weight, and your current weight?
There’s several places where you can get those for free! Here are some useful resources:

Morning,
Nutrition is one of the most important aspects of dieting! One only has to think of Kimkins, the scam diet which had people eating less than 800 calories a day (it sent some people to the hospital) to realize that our bodies are complex mechanisms that require great care for optimal performance.
Thing is, […]

Morning all,
Well, I’m one thrilled individual!
Last year on this day, I was approximately 174 pounds or so on a 5′3.5″ frame. I say “approximately” because I couldn’t bear to weigh myself at that time…I only weighed myself several weeks later.
Today, I’m officially 129 pounds!
To say I’m psyched is a weeee bit of an […]
