Diet Diet DIET……..
I hate to diet. It’s so hard to lose weight and it really seems harder to lose the older I get. Yes, I know the basic rules eat less, move more. But, I’m weak and lazy. I’m always looking for help! (I’m also trying to find any store that doesn’t have a Girl Scout in front of it!! I’m a sucker for those Tag-a-longs. Girl Scout cookie time does me in!!) As I was saying I need help to loose weight. So I started searching the blogs and bulletin boards for hints and tips from other dieters. I found a site that had great things to say about calcium pyruvate. What I…

Outburst Energy Bites Review
This business appears to be gone. I did find this alternative. Spirulina Supplements I don’t know about you, but I’m always on the look out for a quick energy boost. Keeping up with 1 year old Alice takes energy times 10!! I’ve tried the shots, the drinks and well…….. some of them are so foul tasting I just can’t do it. So I drink more and more coffee. Coffee isn’t always convenient when you are on the go. Outburst Energy Bites are a WAYYYY better solution! I don’t know where these little gems have been hiding but, I’m so glad I found them!! Last week was a really busy week,…

Udi Gluten Free Foods Back to School Lunch Challenge!!
I have to admit, when someone offers me a challenge I am IN!! I was definitely in when the makers of Udi Foods challenged me to make a week’s worth of gluten-free school lunches. I immediately went to work!! I have to admit I’m not very creative with lunches. I’m a sandwich and chips girl, but Udi products made it easier to spin off the chips/sandwich merry-go-round for at least a couple of lunches! First, I had to learn a little more about making a Gluten-Free meal. The Mayo Clinic has a great article on what’s allowed and what’s not. Yes, I did a couple of sandwiches I can’t help…

Ring ring…..
Today was my weekly phone call with Tyler at Well Strong Fitness. Tyler said he is going to leave my exercise routine alone. Since I lost 2 pounds for the week. Ya know for the total of TWENTY pounds…. (Sorry, I just really REALLY like that number!) Tyler does want to shake things up in the diet area from now on no more fruit at night. I have to change things up a little, confuse my body to keep promoting weight loss in the home stretch. So no fruit at night, veggies and salads good or even some grilled chicken. The reason behind no fruit at night is vegetables don’t…

Here is my weekly blah blah YEEEE HAAAAblah blah post. (I’m all about the subtle!!) I am down 2 pounds!! That make TWENTY pounds GONE!! 20!!! I only have ten pounds to go!! Okay, here is the rest of my weekly report, I walked every morning with Kaki, wearing my weighted vest. (A little faster pace and just a little further too) The vest weighs in at 30 pounds now. I did my ab crunches 3 days. I tried to really limit my carbs. I hardly ate any candy either(It’s Halloween time! I don’t stand a CHANCE!!!) I would have said I didn’t have ANY candy but I’m sure Barbara…

Hummmmm
Okay now I am really stumped! Two days in a row where I am not ravenous?! Do I have an on off switch I didn’t know I had?? This isn’t like me!! Two days in a row where it was easy to stay on track?? Is this how fit, thin people live?? Not thinking about food? Breezing thru exercise? I want to be one of those people!! PLEASE!!! I mean more than just 2 days in a row please. (I know… I’m a greedy girl. HELLO!?!?! Have we just MET!?!?)

What’s the catch?!?!
WOW! I really don’t want to jinx myself but today was easy! Little extra exercise easily done!! Sticking to my diet super easy!! Even bed time…. I actually think I will be in bed and asleep at a decent hour. (And I’m sleepy enough that I don’t think I will be tossing and turning either!!!) I’d like to tell you I’ve learned to control my hunger….. love exercise…. and all that…. but really? I think we all know that’s just not me!! So I’m left with “today was just TOOOOO easy…. what’s the catch!??!?”
