Jump Rope Or Die

After going to the doctor about my insomnia I was feeling pretty discouraged over my ability to actually make that kind of change in my life. There is just no way I can get out to the gym or go running at the end of the day. By the time the kid’s in bed and […]

So last night my husband casually dropped a bomb on my lap. “Oh in August, we’re going to Virgina Beach for the weekend”.

Billy Watch Your Back

This past weekend I picked up a new workout DVD. I have been feeling pretty run down and just completely lacking in energy. One reason is I need to take my vitamins. Dexie and I must share the same Vitamin amnesia affliction. I manage to remind hubs to take his medicine every day but me; not […]

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 […]

2 Weeks and Still Full Of Excuses

This month is not going too well. Last week, I was only able to work out twice. I could blame it on the weather, hah. Who wants to get up to a cold morning at 5am when you can enjoy the warm blanket for another hour instead? But like I said, I’ve managed to squeeze […]

Health Benefits To Being Slightly Heavy

An article at MSNBC made my head spin - Could there be some health benefits to being slightly heavy, i.e. around 25 pounds overweight? Apparently overweight (not obese) folks are more likely to survive illnesses such as pneumonia and emphysema. However, they are still more likely to die from kidney disease and diabetes.
I’m wondering if […]
