So many people want to get fit, they make commitments to themselves or their friends or strangers on the internet. With all theContinue reading “Back at it! (Finally)”

New Year, new me?
I know, I know, it’s cliche! If I had wanted a new me I’d have gotten one years ago. Well, you know what I mean. Even though I started this blog in August with the best intentions I’ve still failed quite a bit. Although I must say it hasn’t held me back like I’ve letContinue reading “New Year, new me?”
Did you think I forgot about you?
Well, I definitely did not. I had this blog in my head constantly, always thinking about how I’m not posting and I should be posting. How I fell off the path yet again, how could I do that if I started this whole blog to make sure I wouldn’t? It happens, it happens a lot,Continue reading “Did you think I forgot about you?”
Little Victories
Lots of people say that you should celebrate little victories. The idea behind it is definitely valid, but like everything it’s not always easy to do. Any time I have a little victory like working out in the hotel gym after 8 hours on the road, all I can think of is how many timesContinue reading “Little Victories”
Two Truths and a Lie.
Having accountability partners is supposed to help you stay on track. It’s a good idea, friends and family there to help push you when you need it, make you stick to your routine whatever that may be. The problem with that though, is that you can lie. Yup, I’m totally keeping to my schedule! Yup,Continue reading “Two Truths and a Lie.”
Better late than never?
Talk about cutting it close! Today is day 1 of my 25 burpees a day challenge! I realized it’s 11:30 at night but hey it’s still today! I had to modify a bit, I’m still fairly out of shape so no jumping just stepping and reaching. It’s only day 1 though, I imagine by theContinue reading “Better late than never?”
Who’s idea was this anyway? Oh yeah…. mine.
So I decided to do a thing. Anyone that knows me knows that I hate, not only burpees, but also the word burpees! I don’t know why but it has always grated on my nerves. And now I’ve committed myself to doing them every day and talking about them for a month! So why didContinue reading “Who’s idea was this anyway? Oh yeah…. mine.”
Nutrition! Nutrition! Nutrition! Ack!
Nutrition is the bane of my existence. I’m pretty good at working out, I get into the habit fairly easy. I pick a beachbody workout or I do the workout challenges my partner gives me, and I can stay fairly consistent for a while. Nutrition is another thing entirely, I love to cook, I loveContinue reading “Nutrition! Nutrition! Nutrition! Ack!”
Some days you win, some days you lose, and some days you drink a milkshake while you work out.
Today is the latter. I started the day with a pancake, I did my best to make it a good breakfast but I don’t know if adding protein powder to a peanut butter, banana pancake with Nutella and bacon is exactly good. Then I wanted to have some doritos…. bad idea no matter which wayContinue reading “Some days you win, some days you lose, and some days you drink a milkshake while you work out.”
