• H.A.L.T. - Why do I want to eat you? Am I: Hungry, Angry, Lonely, or Tired???

• Here's what happens when we don't declutter our negative attitudes: We decide to lose weight for whatever reason. We lose few pounds, then something upsets us, and we fall back on our old childhood habits of reaching for a "comfort cookie". Before, I wouldn't have been ( Read more... )

As ET said it so well, in well ET. "Ouuuuch"

My workout with Stephen yesterday has left me in some severe minor muscle discomfort. I know it's part of the deal but every once and awhile the muscle fatigue is seriously intense. When it hurts to get dressed, drive, etc you know you had a good workout. But at the same time its a PIA.

So I think too easy is better than too hard, lol. The style is "called “Vinyasa” or flow-style Yoga ( Read more... )

I've been thinking about that lately, being consistent. It's what I was failing at for awhile in terms of healthy living and working out. I'd gotten out of the habit and didn't take it upon myself to maintain all the work. So what happened...well my jeans are a little tight, nothing too drastic yet. But that's because I'm taking the initiative ( Read more... )

Even a short workout is better than no workout, today I fell asleep before going to the gym. I dozed off after breakfast and while I was hanging around. Productive not so much, but dang it felt good. :-) Anyways point being I still went to the gym but had a little less time, but that didn't hinder Stephen from giving me a good workout.

10 min cardio ( Read more... )
