Circuit training at home?

Recently I started running...and I feel like I kinda rock at it :D This was huge for me, because of all the cardio a person can do, I always hated running the most. I wrote a little blog about…

Favorite healthy road trip foods?
I'm going away this weekend, all by myself! No hubby or kids. The awesome thing about this is that I have a 4 hour car ride (each way) during which I DON'T have to stop at a fast food place AT ALL!

TGIF for dinner. Are there ANY good options?
Hey guys! My awesome daughter (10) just came home with her third quarter report card full of ALL A's. So proud of her! Whenever she gets all A's we let her pick someplace for us to go as a family for dinner. This had never been a problem for me in the past because I was just shoving whatever crap I wanted into my mouth.…
