Do you have a Fitness Bucket List? I realized the other day I do. I was driving home from work and thinking about yoga because I had upcoming plans to go to a class. I love yoga, I really, really do. I’m bad at it though, like pretty much every else I try to do [...]

When Happy Weight Isn’t Happy
Warning: there’s a lot of talk about weight and body image ahead. No numbers mentioned but if that kind of talk isn’t good for you, emotionally, then move along and I’ll write a post about wedding stuff soon. Although that might be just as painful for some. Well it’s been one month since I decided [...]
Body…for Life?
Hi! Hope you are all enjoying your weekend. Today’s a big day for me. Day One of Body for Life! For a little more explanation… I mentioned that I’ve been using Weight Watchers to lose the some weight before the wedding (although really, I want to lose weight anyway and the wedding just gives it [...]
Perspective on Slow-Going Goals
Hi! For those of you buried in snow…sorry about that. Must be a bummer. Not that I would know. I really really have to go work on my final project for my intersession class…AKA a 15-minute speech with no slides, no notes, nothing! So intimidating. It’s funny because I can be on TV for work, [...]
My 2011 Goals
First things first. Today, January 2, is officially the six-month mark to the wedding. O to the M to the G. I feel l like now I really have a lot to do from here on out besides wasting time on etsy. I’m cutting back on my classes for the spring semester, which is messing [...]
Guest Post: Carla and Pregnancy Body Image
Hello everyone! Let me start by thanking Hallie for this opportunity to address the public, because Lord knows my infant is a crappy audience for my rants J He mostly just drools and makes a face like he’s doing something indecent (which, most of the time, he is). Hopefully the response will be a little [...]
Half Marathon Training Week 3
I am pretty proud of my efforts this week. I made the time to do all my workouts, didn’t sacrifice sleep, and had some pretty good workouts, if I do say so myself! I also tried to keep better track of what I did, for blog and record-keeping purposes. Please skip to the end if [...]
The Good, The Bad, The Eggs
Tonight I had spicy turkey meatloaf (sans bacon) and a big salad with balsamic vinegar for dinner. A small piece of the meatloaf and a giant salad. It. Was. Amazing. Probably because I haven’t had it in twelve weeks. Now that I’m on my own for my meal plans, it’s honestly a little weird. I’m [...]
Bootcamp Done and Done! Final Results
It’s been quite the 12 weeks, friends. About a month into the program, I knew that time would go by really fast and before I knew it, I’d be finished with my bootcamp. And here we are. Today was my last bootcamp workout, and tomorrow I’m going to have my “after” photo taken by a [...]
Week 10 Weigh-In Recap
Happy Sunday! It’s cool here in San Diego this morning, and I’m out to tackle four miles (again!) once my toast digests. How is your weekend going? I cannot believe it’s already been ten weeks for my 12-week bootcamp program. I’ve learned a lot and I know I look better than I have in a [...]
