Welcoming in the beautiful month of May
I can't believe that April has already passed us by, but the good news is that means we (not sure about the frigid northeast) are closer to being able to do all the outdoorsy things that have been impossible due to weather. I am also quite happy because I have been able to get back in a good cooking and working out…

Hello all! How has everyone's week been going so far? Mine has been pretty swell. I purchased a fitbit last week and I have been enjoying getting used to it and seeing all that it tracks. Last night I was finally able to see how much I actually was running during basketball. turns out I run about 5 miles during a two hour…

Hello all! It is a beautiful day out here in Utah. The trees are in bloom, the birds are singing and I am not even all that bitter about being cooped inside at the moment haha. We are now officially more that halfway done with the show and that blows my mind. It feels like I have been working on it forever, but at the same…

Happy Monday to everyone! Last weekend was opening weekend and it went quite well. We had fun and the audience had fun so it was a win all around. I am glad that the performances have started because it means that I will no longer have rehearsals on Tuesdays through Thursdays. Hooray for some evenings back! Having those…

It looks like the year is quickly passing us by yet again. I swear it was just the holidays. Oh well. This weekend was not my best haha. I had several parties I went to and I had a bit more to eat than I should have. the good news is that I am in a good mood today and I am ready for a solid week or eating well and…

First off I want to say congratulations to Dee! Hooray for weddings! Today I have been thinking about some of my weight loss/health goals. Lately I have been fairly lackadaisical in my efforts. I have basically been going through the motions and letting a few too many things slide. I am going to change that today by making…

February 3
This past Sunday I reached a milestone. It marked one year since I had had a carbonated beverage. I can't believe I actually made it haha. The thing is that by doing that one small thing and not drinking soda, I showed myself that I can easily give up anything that I want to or need to. It has given me an extra boost of…

Life is quite grand out here. Even the weather seems to be in a good mood. We were about 20 degrees warmer than normal for the end of January. It basically felt like an early spring day. I had a nice enjoyable weekend of relaxing and such with my friends. My parents ended up getting another rescue dog this weekend. She is…

How is everybody doing this lovely week? Things are going just great over here in the not so chilly as expected west. Nothing much of note is going on, but my muscles have been much happier with me this week in regards to my lifting. I was hoping they wouldn't stay mad at me for too long. I am looking forward to basketball…

2015 Resolutions
I figured I would create a place where we could list some of our resolutions. My first resolution is to be as consistent at going to the gym and exercising as I was during the summer. I have the gym buddies all set up so it shouldn't be too difficult. My second resolution is one that will most likely take two years, but I…

Hello everyone! I am two days into my new workout schedule and my muscles are protesting haha. I had been away from weight lifting for a few months so they were not happy with the increased activity. Besides the soreness in the muscles I am feeling pretty swell. It is nice to be back into a good routine. Hopefully these…

Well it looks like it is time for me to get back to the grind, sigh. The great news is that while I have to start work up again, I don't have to start up school. That thought always just puts me in the mood to dance! (Imagine a high quality dance in your head) Karen, I do agree that I hope your recovery moves smoothly and…

I can't believe another week has pretty much already passed. It is nice because the weekends are always the best anyways haha. This weekend should be enjoyable for me. Tomorrow I am going to my friend's church to dress up as Santa for the kids there (I make a pretty darn good Santa). On Saturday I am going with my friends…

November 20
How is the week going for all of you out there? It has been pretty good for me and pretty busy. I have had a lot of deadlines with school and work that have come up and it has kept me from working out as much as I would like. At least I got in some racquetball. The next big thing I need to take care of on my to do list is…

Hello all, It is a normal day over here for me. I just have work and then I head to school. My niece gave me a little bit of a cold, but other than that everything is swell. How have people been doing with this weeks exercise challenge? Have you all found some new exercises to try? I have only tried one new one so far. It…

How is everyone doing? Out here things are going swell. The sun is shining, the air is crisp and so are the apples. The challenge of the week to eat our full servings of fruits and vegetables is not an easy one, but I am committed to doing it. I just wish that the things that are good for you tasted like they weren't. How…

It appears that another weekend has come upon us and for this I am grateful. I am pretty excited for this weekend. For tonight my friend purchased some tickets for a group of us to go to a Halloween event at a place called Red Butte Gardens. I am pretty excited. Since it is a plant focused place it is going to focus on the…

Hopefully everyone had a great weekend. Mine went pretty swell, but on Saturday I went to log my food on this site and it happened to be after midnight so I guess I get to start a new daily login streak. I did not manage to find time to complete the challenge last week, but the one for this week is something I should be…

I am not so sure about this new layout *narrows eyes suspiciously*. I guess I will just have to give it some time haha. How has everyone's week gone so far? Hopefully full of the good kind of adventure. I believe I saw on the tail end of the old forum that we were doing the three new exercises challenge. I can't remember…

How is everyone else doing today? Out here things are just swell. The sun is shining, the birds are singing and I am getting pumped up for this challenge. I am feeling pretty good since I am getting myself a pretty solid birthday gift. I am going to be at my lowest weight in about 5 years. It just gives me some added…

Day 45: September 3
It seems strange that it is already September. It feels like the summer just flew by. I swear it is still mid June at the latest. I am excited for fall though. It is probably my favorite season. The changing leaves are beautiful, the air has a crispness to it and of course there is Halloween and all that comes with it (I…

Day 33, August 21
Happy Thursday to all of you out there. Today is going to be a good day, I can feel it. Tonight after work I have basketball and right now I am preparing everything at work so it'll be good to go without me next week. Next week my friends and I are heading up to Yellowstone for a long weekend. It is a yearly trip for us…

Day 30: August 18
Good morning to all of you wonderful people. I wasn't on here the last couple of days to say this, but Pat, great job on the 50 mile ride! I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend (or at least the best weekend they could, depending on the circumstances). I am a little sad that summer is coming to a close, because it means…

Day 27, August 15
Hello all! It seems like this week has been a pretty good one for some of us here in Mobo Moto and that makes me happy. First we have Karen who was received the insurance go ahead for her surgery. Woo!! Next we have Pat with his 50 mile ride coming up on Sunday (that is just incredible). For me it was pretty good as well.…

Articles on Weight Loss
An article that I read recently was focused on the fairly common idea that the amount of sleep a person is getting can have a large impact on weight loss. The article brought up several interesting points that help explain why inadequate sleep can lead to weight gain or slower results for those trying to lose weight. In a…
