It’s Like Riding a Bike

June 10, 2011

This week has been draining, so I took a vacation day today to re-adjust my sleep and decompress. It's my own fault- I put lots of extra projects on my plate and they all seem to hit at once. I'm trying to get better with prioritizing. Since I didn't have to go to work today, I ...

Video: Fat, Fit and Yoga

10.24.2010

Today started a week of recovery for me with my exercise. I can do low or medium intensity cardio, but no weights. I have wanted to try my Biggest Loser yoga DVD again after really enjoying the Spin + Yoga (Spoga?) class I’ve done the past couple weeks at the gym. I reviewed the DVD …

Last Chance Workout

10.09.2010

Today I had a session with Trainer Rob. Since I haven’t been on the scale in nearly a month (a daily exercise in personal restraint) and I’m up for weighing in on Monday, Rob joked it was my “Last Chance Workout” ala The Biggest Loser. I actually brought my Flip Video camera so he could …

Fat Girl Goes Spinning

10.02.2010

Yep, you read the title right- this fat (but fit) girl went spinning today. Taking a spin class has been on my 101 in 1001 list, and I’ve really wanted to mark it off. So this morning, I went to my first spin class. I have to admit, I was scared. I have heard about how …

It’s Reversible

09.29.2010

I know I talk about making choices all the time, but it’s key in my current mindset, so I’m talking about them some more. You have been warned! I get frustrated with my body, with the weight, with my overall girth. I get frustrated with all the events that have led me to this point where …

Fitness Regimen after Vacation

09.08.2010

Getting back into a healthy routine post-vacation can be tough. I can definitely say that while I was floating in the ocean in Cozumel drinking a Corona, I sure wasn’t thinking “man, I can’t wait to get back in the gym! Ooh, and cooking my own healthy food again will be awesome!” Uh, no sir. I’m pretty much …

Write Your Own Script

08.05.2010

I have waffled on this for a few weeks now. And I love how I just made a food reference. I’m hungry. Need to eat a pre-bed snack… But I digress… You all have been through my insanity that is my love/hate relationship with The Biggest Loser. I wanted to be on the show. I wanted to …

After Trainer Rob tried to kill me at the gym today, I got him on camera to talk about motivation- how to find motivation and how to stay motivated. Someone asked me on my Formspring form (on the right column of the blog – “Ask me anything”) about motivation. Here is Rob’s story. He also …

What Would Fit Feel Like?

07.07.2010

I may not be applying for The Biggest Loser again, but I do have to admit that the application does have some great questions on it that hopefully make the people applying stop to really think about their motives. Don’t worry- I didn’t download the application for myself. I’ve been reading Jen Lancaster’s book, Bitter …
