It’s Reversible

September 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 ...

You don’t always have to like it

07.21.2010

I know that when I blog, I blog pretty happy things. Victories, “woohoos” whatever. Especially lately- there’s been so much good stuff going on! This week, I’m swamped.

Swimming for Weight Loss

05.30.2010

Check out what I did today! I actually went to the gym AGAIN. After yesterday, I thought I would be mega-sore and tired, but I felt pretty good. What is Memorial Day weekend without a pool, anyway? I’m glad I got in the pool. I know there are others out there who go to the pool …

This thing called “the gym”

05.29.2010

So… with the Get Emmie Skinny program now underway, I will be doing some vlogging to record and track my weight loss and workout progress. I will continue blogging as usual, just now there will be more videos on the site to explain more about what kind of activities I’m doing, interviews with trainers or …
