How did I get here?

I went for a hike Saturday morning with a few of my hiking friends who will be doing the Mammoth March in upstate NY this summer with me. We chose an easy trail for speed at a local preserve and combined trails to form our own route. Along the trail on 3 separate occasions inContinue reading “How did I get here?”

2 days until unofficial summer…eek

Well.. the scale sucks.. not really, it’s actually accurate. I’ve been riding a roller coaster since the whole 100 days to summer challenge began. Today I’m down net 1 lb from where I began.. but considering last week I was up 3 lbs .. I’ll take it. My food choices have been suspect. I haveContinue reading “2 days until unofficial summer…eek”

100 days to summer….meh… who cares

Good morning…full disclosure until I searched google this morning I had no idea this poem which I learned in grade school was born from such a renowned author… HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW There was a little girl, Who had a little curl, Right in the middle of her forehead. When she was good, She was veryContinue reading “100 days to summer….meh… who cares”

61 Days to summer challenge.. angles

I saw an interview with Harry Styles where he said a friend had given him the best advice..it was something like this: always remember nothing anyone says about you is real.. if they say you are the best, it isn’t true, if they say you are the worst, it isn’t true. So since I lastContinue reading “61 Days to summer challenge.. angles”

100, make that, 78 days 2 summer… where I’m currently residing..

I know spring officially started a few weeks ago, but I am finally feeling it.. or at least my face is feeling it.. Sinus headache, allergies, migraine, not 100% sure but last night as I was playing with my grandson, I bent over to pick up the nerf basketball as he was squealing again, againContinue reading “100, make that, 78 days 2 summer… where I’m currently residing..”

100 Days 2 Summer – Take a look at me now…

There are video monitors at #cko that show pictures of members taking classes or posing with their 100 class shirts as well as a promo video filmed a few years back. Sometimes throughout class I will glance up and see myself staring back at me. That me with her fierce determination and wicked smile wasContinue reading “100 Days 2 Summer – Take a look at me now…”

Being honest with yourself

I’ve lost my mojo. She says startled in her best Austin Powers voice.. So here’s the thing.. my ability to force myself to do the things is currently on a roller coaster ride.. kickboxing sign me up, hiking get outta my way, walking on the treadmill if I remember to zoom, yoga, oh man, nowContinue reading “Being honest with yourself”

The excess weight we carry

So I am up 12 freaking pounds.. The number in itself doesn’t bother me. My value is not tied to how much I weigh. True, I don’t love the fact that some of my clothes are tight; however, I made some wardrobe adjustments and was/am not bogged down emotionally. The thing that is weighing heavilyContinue reading “The excess weight we carry”

Reflections

It’s inevitable. As much as I tell myself I am not going to do that thing at the end of the year and “reflect”… I think it is just human nature to take stock in ourselves every so often. And since the rest of the world is screaming new year, re-set.. well it’s a littleContinue reading “Reflections”
