I was back to the gym yesterday before work – I thought it might be hard because I slept in on Halloween morning, but I was up and out the door. Yesterday was shoulders and cardio – the strength portion took me only 25 minutes, so I ended up walking on the treadmill for 3 miles (122 miles to go in my 125 mile November...

So it’s been 10 days since I started my Cleanse.  Lots of sweat, lots of meal planning, lots of avoiding work treats and treats I have at home (Hello Fritos and Paydays – I am looking at you!). But I have to tell you that it went by fast!  And each and every day I had to continue to make good choices, avoid my beloved...

I have both Shelley and Tony to thank for making me an honest woman.  Here I was saying it had been 8 days since I last had cheese.  Well, they both pointed out that a mere 5 days ago I had a cup of Panera’s broccoli CHEDDAR soup.  So it hasn’t been a full 8 days since I had cheese. . . I lied.  BUT...

We are week two into getting up to workout before work and it was absolutely no problem for me to get up.  Not knowing what my work day was ahead of me, I just wanted to make sure that I got at least one good workout before the day got in the way. I made banana bread over the weekend for Tony to snack on...

I don’t know about you, but typically during my work week, I have everything planned, I am set in my routine and it runs pretty smoothly.  Weekends?  I start dreaming about cheezy pizza and Pinot Grigio! But, this weekend I was still in My Ten Day Cleanse.  That mean no cheese, no alcohol, no sugar – basically no processed foods.  You know what we have...

I wrote on my Healthy for the Holiday Facebook Page (still not too late to join – friend me at Beth Hills Velatini!) that I was five for five on waking up and getting my ass to the gym.  Tony told me last night how proud he was of me for getting up!  He keeps telling me that I am beautiful just the way I...

I was sitting at my desk yesterday when I realized that I never got the results from my EKG I did over a week ago.  I called my doctors office, their hours were 11 – 7 yesterday so I gave them my cell phone number to call me back.  My doctor called me at 7:45, just as I was in the middle of doing Insanity...

It’s funny you don’t really think about stuff that you have all the time until you decide to take it away.  My “cleanse” has nothing to do with caffeine, its all the sugary shit I put in my coffee!  And look what’s out now??!! Um, not sure about you guys, but I’ve already fallen in love with all things pumpkin!  I am not worried, I...

I believe after this weekend, my streak of wearing makeup and wearing my hair down will come to an end.  I have nothing planned next weekend, so no reason to get gussied up – farewell to weekend # six of dressing up!  I cut my bangs by myself, not sure I got them very even – ha! My co-worker J got married over the weekend. ...

Happy Friday!  For some reason this week seems so long, and yesterday I woke up thinking it was Friday so that sucked.  I have a wedding to go to tomorrow and then twin fest on Saturday with my twin sister and our best friends that are twins.  We are meeting at Wildfire – holy moly they have the best burgers there.  I plan on making...
