This blog is going to hit on a few different health & fitness topics I’ve come upon during my personal weight loss journey. Lately I’ve felt like everything I am working isn’t making a difference. I’ve been working out and eating under my calorie goal but I don’t physically see a difference. Saturdays are my…

Quick Hello!
My oh my… I haven’t written in quite some time! I recently went on a trip to San Diego. I want to write a post about that but I need to go through & pick out the best pictures to go with it. I only took 400 pictures while there. 😉 So be on the…
What it takes…
I started doing P90X last weekend and what it has forced me to realize is how bad I have let myself get. I have been working on my stretching and running at the gym but with P90X I have been forced to see how weak I am, how not flexible, how mushy my core had…
Work It Out
Today I made a list of all the workouts/exercise I like or want to try. Running Dance (ballet, jazz, tap, modern, hip hop) Biking Rollerblading Pilates P90X Boxing Kickboxing MMA Weight lifting Hockey Basketball Volleyball Hiking I think that pretty much covers it. In the past I was a dancer. Now I am a runner….

With this weeks excessive heat warning and me running all over the place (in & out, in & out), I didn’t get to the gym much at all. I did get in a few short walks while running around for work. I feel bad but this heat is truly affecting me. I know I work…
Gym Woes
I had a weird experience at the gym last night. I was doing my normal routine (warm up 5 minutes, run 3 walk 2) and had reached the 18 minute mark. I suddenly started to feel lightheaded/dizzy and it felt like all the heat was trapped in my body. I slowed to a slow walk…
Book Review: The Hangman’s Daughter and The Dark Monk
I had the opportunity to get two new books on my kindle so of course I took it. Who can turn down new reading material? The books I received were The Hangman’s Daughter and it’s follow-up, The Dark Monk by German author Oliver Potzsch (imagine the o having an umlaut over it). The books are…
Tempting Treats: Bic Soleil Savvy
I tried this new Bic razor out last week and let me just say, wow! I was impressed. So impressed I yelled out to the BF, “THIS RAZOR IS SO SMOOTH!”. His reaction wasn’t quite as enthusiastic as mine. He basically asked, “Aren’t all new razors smooth?” Men, they just don’t get it. 😉 This…
One Step Closer
This week I took a step in the right direction. I haven’t been feeling fully happy with myself lately and realized I haven’t worked out seriously and consistently in about a year. A gym will be opening up across the street from my house but not until fall/winter. I kept contemplating what to do until then. I…
