VACAY FROM REALITY...

It's going to be soooo nice when going on vacation don't mean stopping all efforts at taking care of my fitness. Since I was leaving on a Friday morning....I skipped all workouts Monday-Thursday to tidy up loose ends....last minute items, packing, extra cleaning.... then of course since there is no cooking (and preparing) while on vacay, we ate comfort food for SEVEN (7) days straight....plus alcohol....alot of alcohol. Then when I return, I get sick and down for an additional week. I just wish..being fit was more apart of my everyday life... without thinking....natural state. I shouldn't even want that extra piece of fried chicken knowing the effect it will have on my body. There is a consequence for every action....and I should want to protect the work I've already invested in my body. I have to make a conscience effort at all time. There's no ifs, ands or buts about it. This will always be a part of me. My fitness goals whether I'm trying to lose or trying to maintain will always have to stay on the forefront of my mind. Always. And sometimes this is such a sad fact.

21 Day Fix - Overview Week 2

Ok my confession first; I didn’t work out much last week…..three days. I let life give me excuses and I used ‘em. I am, however, still eating according to plan for the most part and still dropping pounds and inches. Although this is a 3-week program, I really don’t plan to stop…. since the goal is to adapt to the habits as my normal way of eating I will simply continue. I still give kudos to the program because I was at a major plateau. Although this is simply a program of portion control and timely eating… it’s presented in a way that makes it understandable in a market that is just overwhelmed with "get-skinny-fast" schemes. Tools are provided that helps you to see visually the perfect balance of nutrients to fuel and nourish your body. And you can’t beat a 30 minute but still effective workout. I’ve found that I can even “stray” and still see a drop on the scale. Friday night, I went out to eat my all-time favorite meal of Mexican fare. I almost always order a large...

94 days till I'm the big 4-0...YAH! Every since I realized I was 100 days away I've been trying to get in some exercise. Pulled out my tried and true Shaun T doing Hip Hop Abs and also went way back and dusted off Billy Blanks ugly butt and doing his Fitness Bootcamp (which btw is ugh hard). I looked for my Walk Away the Pounds but the darn disc case was empty...with all the moving there's just no telling what happened to it. So today I decided to buy me another....toughter version....man Leslie Sansone has soooo many WATP videos...but do you notice she still thick in the hips and thighs...been walking all these years...lol. Anyway....I can hardly wait for it to arrive. Even been packing my lunch lately....not everyday but better. And my main thing is I haven't ventured to the plaza level for my all-time favorite PayDay candy bar.... I don't even care for candy much....but I absolutely love peanut M&M's and PayDay candy bar....that salt mixed with sugar is t...

It's OK if you have to Walk Away.

Awww remember when you first met? Remember that teenage giddy feeling...remember how you felt when he first said he loved you or vice versa.... but what if you can no longer remember why you're there in the first place, if it's just not working, how can you stay together? Truly. How? I’m seeing this situation in two very close friends of mine and it makes me look at my own situation and evaluate that I’m in a relationship for the right reasons. Your partner does not have to be abusing you or neglecting you or doing or not doing anything in particular. Relationships end. I realize this is NOT the fairy tale we’re made to believe as a growing princess but relationships are hard work, right? I don’t know if I buy that.... love shouldn’t be hard work, love shouldn’t be painful.... and if it is then it’s time to re-evaluate. And when you know it’s over, you are wasting yourself and your time, not to mention your partner and his time when you stick around instead of exposing it for ...
