The first few weeks of my overall weight loss journey were a rollercoaster... trying to figure out what and how and dealing with some necessary diet changes... it was a…

  • Unless they've walked a mile in your shoes, they don't have the ability to commentate. That's my opinion. If you are happy with how you are approaching living a healthy and fit life, then be happy and don't let others bring you down! Enjoy the fact that you OWN this. Let them know that this is your journey and you have…

  • Cauliflower "rice" as a stir-fry base (so add any veggies you want to the top). It's quick, easy, and delicious! :-) You can google/pinterest the "how-tos."

  • Banana Oat Cookies! I just tried them last week and fell in love! You take two ripe bananas and 1 cup of oats. Mash the bananas in a bowl and then mix in the oats. I also sprinkled some ground cinnamon into the mixture. Use a spoon to drop the "dough" onto a cookie sheet. Bake for 13-15 minutes at 350 degrees. When I tried…

  • My first 5k I came in around 41 minutes. Not too fast... but I reminded myself of two things: 1. I wasn't the VERY last person to cross the finish line. 2. I wasn't still laying in bed or watching t.v. like the majority of the rest of America on an early Saturday morning. Don't worry about your time. Celebrate that you are…

  • Cauliflower "rice." It's super easy to make and you can add whatever vegies you have on hand to make it a "stir-fry." To make cauliflower "rice" you cut off the florets, chop it in a food processor until it has a similar look to rice, then you sauté it in light oil with onion and garlic (or skip those if you don't have…

  • Because I've had soooooo much to lose (total goal is 90 pounds lost), I gave myself a goal of reaching 70 pounds lost by last December. To keep me on track and focused, I set up my reward ahead of time: a Christmas cruise to the Caribbean. I made my goal and celebrated for an entire week. Now that I'm close to my final…
