Have to say: I was super stoked to see Mariah Carey gracing the cover of Shape Magazine! I grew up listening to her unprecedented vocal range and always female envied her hour-glass figure. I mean, her curves parallel Marilyn Monroe! It got me questioning: is society starting to inch away from the love affair with super skinny women?
Let’s just say I was ready for pay day! However, on a budget and feeding two people (and one dog) never seems to be a successful one. We always end up cheating somehow: eating out, not eating enough or just picking up a few things from the store during the week. Staying on budget seems impossible! Not only does it fail, but we always end up compromising and eating poor foods. Not this time…I have a plan!
There is something special about becoming a regular in a fitness class. You may not know everyone, but your brain does pick up on recurring faces. Today, at my usual spin class, we were really hitting it hard with steep climbs and sprint training. In the last 10 minutes (by this time I am constantly watching the clock), one of the regulars announced that she won’t be in next week because she’s pregnant and has a doctor’s visit!
I think all of us have weeks where we are on the workout wagon and weeks that we jump ship! Obstacles like lack of time, laziness and boredom can creep into your life and scare away your tennis shoes. So, how do you avoid these distraction from your fitness goals?
I want you to work, but only when it is worth it. Don’t get left in the dark when you should push yourself and when you should hit the breaks.
Eating is complicated enough already. I am not a fan of calorie counting or restrictive boxed meal being sent to your house. I like simple changes that take just a tiny bit of effort that can reap some big results. Easy sounds good right? What is this weeks tip?
Love this! Listen to how one guy creates his one before and after pictures in a matter of hours. It it great to see a guy that has finally tacked around this subject. Did I say tackle? I meant tip toe. He does try to cover himself legally. I was surprised of his results and how he’s actually funny.

I’ll be playing to nostalgia today because fashion trends of the 80s and 90s reminded me of Jane Fonda VHS tapes and the progression of workouts and workout DVDs in my life. I wonder how many of you had, or have the same videos gathering dust on your shelves right now? And, who else is old enough to actually remember Betamax, and the outrage of switching that collection to VHS before anyone really knew what was coming?
With everything that you need to fit in a day, slowing down seems irrelevant to pencil in. But what if I told you that slowing down certain activities and taking a breather, will aid in weight loss. That’s right, you don’t have to do anything but, well, nothing. Get your attention?
Now that I am taking an ACE certification training course, I am learning all about the realities of weight loss and exercise. However, this one exercise myth surprised me because I had it wrong for so many years.
