How to Become Gluten Intolerant (Funny)
Sorry, couldn't help myself. (This is not to poke fun at the people who are actually intolerant, just the people who wish they were.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oht9AEq1798

Resistance Bands
I've been looking at rowing machines for several years now thinking they looked pretty awesome. But living in a tiny duplex leaves no room for any exercise equipment. Then the other day I saw someone working out with a resistance band almost exactly like a rowing machine. Just sitting on the floor with the band on the…

Pumping Rant
I can't stand pumping! There, I said it. It sucks. (literally!) ;) My daughter is 7 months old and I started pumping about a month ago. She was getting to where nursing would take over half an hour because she was getting SO distracted. She wanted to look at EVERYTHING! And as a stay-at-home-mom of a 5 and 3 year old,…

Sabatoging Myself Rant
I'm having a battle with myself in my head. I have an unhealthy relationship with food, yes. But I never really took a step back and looked at what I do from a distance until this morning. My husband hurt me. All husbands hurt their wives at some point or another in their marriage. But I realized this morning that the…

Slowly Getting There! 30 lbs Down!
This is me, posting my "Before" and my "Not-There-Yet-But-Seeing-Progress" pics! First, a little about me. I'm 24, a stay-at-home mom of 3 little munchkins ages 4, 2, and 2 weeks old.

Question for all the Mommies!
I am currently 37 weeks pregnant with my third child. I've heard conflicting reports of whether or not wearing a post-partum girdle after baby is born is beneficial to getting back into shape. Not in shape like fit, but just helping your body get back to a non-pregnant shape. I wore an elastic belt thingy after my first…

Warning: Long, boring, ranting post! My husband and I have been married for 6 years. During those 6 years we've moved 5 times, had 2 kids, he's gone through about 4 jobs and to top it off - I've gained about 50 lbs and he's gained about 60-70 lbs.

Weight lifting/Dumbbell Question

The Evil Green Sweats
When I was first married, my mother-in-law gave me a sweat suit. It was a white jacket w/green stripes and jogging pants that were green w/white stripes. All in all, it was cute, in a bright colored jogger kind of way. But the pants were way too big! I couldn't walk across the room without the pants falling down,…
