Tonight I’m excited to tell you that I have officially lost a little over 10 pounds. Sure it’s taken me a little over 2 months BUT I’ve lost more inches and smoothed out the unsightly “lady lumps” here and there. Woot Woot!! To some 10 pounds might not seem a lot BUT just carry around [...]

I just came to a realization. One that sabotages every single effort of weight-loss in the past and one that ALMOST got to me this round while I was sick physically and probably emotionally the past 2 weeks… When I begin to lose the inches, my skin gets softer and of course jigglier in some [...]

Two weeks past, now on week 3, and I’m still exercising 5 of 7 days. I’ve been feeling great since I’ve gone back to exercising. When I quite smoking last October I had no idea how much smoking was taking my breath away and deterring me from keeping at my heart rate up long to [...]
