Cleaning House

01.20.2011

Not in the mood for a “deep” post? Maybe you should skip this one ;) Seriously though, I share these thoughts because I really don’t think I’m alone. Is it scary opening up? Sure. But could it help me plus others to do so? Yup. So share I do… Hands down the hardest part of this …

CLOSED: 2 Signed Copies of Rocco DiSpirito’s “Now Eat This!”

01.17.2011

Who doesn’t love a giveaway? I posted earlier this morning that I hit 98.5 pounds lost, despite being worried about my new focus on lower calories instead of low-carb. Part of the reason I was worried was because I cooked and ate this over the weekend: Seriously. Drool. I made nachos for the Steelers game (hubs is a …

Let’s Try Again

01.14.2011

This morning started off with a fizzle when I woke up late, having missed my 5:30am spin + yoga class, and an appointment with my therapist (everyone needs a healthy mind). Bah.

Tick Tock

01.13.2011

I’ve been thinking a lot about time lately. How I use my time, how much time I waste, etc. I suppose this started from this post before Christmas about writing a letter to myself in retrospect of 2011. I re-read that letter while dealing with being sick, and was silently cursing at the 2+ weeks …

Thankful for Being a Biggest Loser Reject

12.14.2010

Tonight is the season finale for The Biggest Loser, Season 10. As I’ve written about before, I auditioned for this season back in January/February  of this year. I believe they began filming in late April, which is coincidentally, the time that I started my Get Emmie Skinny focus on health. So fast forward 8 months or …

Oh Christmas Tree

11.27.2010

I’ve been riding a wave of happiness since the Southern Lights Stroll. I wish official times were up so I could verify that I, in fact, did finish somewhere between 50-51 minutes, however they’re not up yet. Thanksgiving was spent decorating the Christmas tree and other parts of the house as hubs had to work the …

Fat-O-Meter

11.13.2010

Another great question from Katy B. about something I’ve wanted to talk about for a while. I have struggled with it since at least the fourth grade, and some days, it’s worse than others: I was wondering if you struggle with comparisons. I catch myself trying to figure out if I am bigger or the …
