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 […]

I might be doing the Self Challenge, but I could always be doing more! I want to find summer workouts that get me outside…here are some of the very best out there for the warm weather.
Water Squats: Start with your legs separated at shoulder’s width. Bend your legs a little as you begin to “sit” […]

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

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 […]

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 […]

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 […]
