Burning The Scale

When the Running Gets Rough. . .

On My New Goal of the Week
My one goal of the week? Saving my feet! I hate that “running burn” that I get at the gym (yes, even when speed-walking). Sometimes I want to blast my way through a workout and my feet just. hurt. Plus ladies can have problems with their feet and ankles, […]

A New Dawn, A New Day

Having just completed my first week as a work at home mom, I have come to a couple of conclusions. I may well never eat a meal by myself again and trying to work while managing a toddler is EXHAUSTING. Besides all that, I’m loving it. My son wants whatever I have on my plate. Even if […]

Could I Eat Moderately?

Walking the Dog

My son has been wanting a puppy for years. We promised he could have one when he stopped waking up at night and coming into our bed. Sometime during the past couple of months he realized we were serious and is now sleeping in his own bed at night. Last weekend we began looking […]

Itchy, Bitchy, Sleepy & Starving.

The title pretty much sums up my last week. You would think that coming home from New York and watching countless skinny models prancing backstage and all over the runway would have me inspired. Wrong!
You see, being mainly a beauty blogger, while I was in New York for Fashion Week, I was treated to […]

5 Diet and Fitness Goals for the Week

I’m making my list of goals for the week public to catapult myself into action. I think it’ll work well. . . but we’ll have to see if I can hit all five just right! I have faith in myself, but this should give me the right nudge to keep things rolling.
1. Bring my water […]

Free At Last

To say this past week has been hectic is an understatement. Our little bug was sick and I finally, FINALLY logged in my last week at my 9-5 proper desk job. Needless to say, getting in any sort of real exercise was just not going to happen. How much weight have I lost so far? […]

Plus-Size Beginner’s Exercise Guide

I found a great resource for plus exercises this weekend! I didn’t get a chance to go to the gym this week because they don’t want me to do anything vigorous after my surgery, but I’ll be back in the gym tomorrow night. I may not be the biggest fan of the title, “You’re Never […]
