So, the elliptical machine and I are in a love hate relationship right now. I swear that after 45 minutes of awkward elliptical-ing, I have sweated buckets. Plus, it’s not like I’m taking the easiest program. No, I am not. I’ve tried Cardio, Hill (kill me), strength and interval settings from 30 minutes to 45 […]
Back to reality – plus my Workout Playlist
March 20, 2013 By 2 Comments
Everything has been going great with my new workout schedule! Except for the past week of sickness where you’ll notice an absence of working out on my part, blah. I really dislike being sick. Spending the last 4 days or so in my pjs, plus missing a few days of working out really put a […]

Last week Super G. and I were in the vitamin aisle at Walmart stocking up on garlic pill (they have odorless now, woot!) for him and chewable calcium for me. I glanced up at the top shelf and noticed Jillian Michaels trim self sternly pointing her finger at me. I glanced behind me and then […]

Even though I’ve said before that I don’t do the whole new year resolution thing, that doesn’t mean I don’t have personal goals for myself each year. Like so many people, one of my top priorities is usually achieving some kind of weight loss within the next year. It may be that I need to […]
Reminding myself why need Jazzercise
December 31, 2009 By 1 Comment
I was never one for regular exercise, I mean I was already active enough. I ran after my children, spent a lot of time gardening, walked to the stop sign and back every couple of days and just generally led an active life. After going through treatments for cervical cancer I kind of lost some […]
