Fat Girl Running

This past weekend was a whirlwind and I’ve decided that in January I’m going to relax more. I realized that since May I’ve had something going on every single weekend. Travel, events, social stuff, selling jewelry. Don’t get me wrong, it’s all been wonderful, truly wonderful. I just need a weekend or three in a [...]

My Potential

This morning as I get ready at an ungodly hour to trek to Roanoke, a 45 minute drive, to run in our first 5k I noticed something. As I passed the mirror in a tank-top and underwear I catch a glimpse of myself  and see potential.

I see past the stretch marks, the protruding stomach, [...]

Just One Thing

I had this idea while running yesterday that I wanted to challenge myself and anyone reading to do just one thing differently today. Whatever it is that is keeping you from your goals, pin-point it and dedicate today to not doing it or doing it.

There could be multiple things, but choose to do one [...]

5k mix!

Music changes my run, am I alone here? For the past couple of weeks I’ve let my ipod sit, uncharged at home while I’ve gone out without music. And I realized that the euphoric, weightloss, feeling was in part due to listening to music.

I want to start by saying that I run/walk on public [...]

Where do you want to be?

We made it to Friday! I have to say first, on Monday I purchased one of those moleskine wellness journals and oh my gosh! I love it! There are sections for exercise, diet, inspiration, sports and even blank pages. I’ve been deligently journaling my food and exercise this week and it’s been so helpful for [...]

Where did you go, my lovely

Oh yeah, I broke that out. So I’m back from my mini-vacation in WV. I want to start first thanking you all for signing up for “healthy for the holidays” the list is expanding and I’ll wait a few more days until I link to you all again! I’m so excited, reading your daily comments [...]

Healthy for the Holidays Continues in WV

I just realized (at 5am no less) that I forgot to blog “hey, I will be out of town this weekend”. Bad blogger habits. I’m here, healthy for the holidays is in full swing. I have been writing down what I eat, following my intuition and this morning I’m running a 5k with Jasmine on [...]

44 Days until Christmas

Yesterday was a successs! I got up ate some Kashi Vanilla Island with unsweetened blueberries and organic milk all in a margarita glass. I like to keep things classy in the morning.

Those unsweetened blueberries are where it’s at! Oh my, I hate you Trader Joe’s for not being close, but I love [...]

Healthy for the Holidays

Not to freak anyone out, but there’s only 45 days until Christmas! I mentioned in my previous post, that this year I wanted to give myself the gift of better health for Christmas. What does better health mean to me? I want to be able to run a 5k, sure with occasional stops for [...]

Go back to where we started from

Every few weeks or couple of months for the past two years I’ve questioned what purpose my blog holds for me. If you’ve been following for awhile, you’ll know that I started writing here after moving to a new city and being forced with all of the walking to lose weight. I joined a gym, [...]
