So I have been LOVING some of these new recipes that I have been using for my meals. Here is one that I have used several times. It is a great meal to have with about another 4oz. of chicken. Chicken Tortilla Soup. I have to say I do NOT put the toppings on. I [...]
Steel Cut Oats
Warning: This is a HEALTHY way to easily cook oats. Meaning, there is no sugar in this at all. I am sure there can be great sugary variations but for those of you who are looking for a tasty way to eat oats and have it be “clean”, this is my favorite so far. 1 [...]
Sugar is a beast
So I decided ohsointelligently to cleanse myself of sugar ON HALLOWEEN DAY! Yes, Halloween people. what was *I* thinking? Clearly I wasn’t. But, I honestly didn’t do that bad. Really. I was okay. It was Monday, I was motivated. I was determined. Tuesday however…it took E V E R Y ounce of control to not [...]
Achillies Hell
No, that was not a typo. I have been having this “issue” since I ran three days in a row on the trail a couple of weeks ago. Immediately, I noticed an issue with my left hip (the one that is jacked from the car accident) and of course, my knees. I also had an [...]
For the health of it.
I saw a friend of mine the other day at the gym. It was good to talk. Don’t you love it when you have someone you talk to and you both just have the same thoughts on things? I do. =) A few accomplishments I have had since starting my fitness journey. 1. I have [...]

Ever notice how different people in your life truly inspire you in different ways? I have to pay homage to someone who has inspired me all my life. My dad. My dad has been someone I looked to as my inspiration for physical fitness. He is a runner. It is funny that here I only [...]
Well, that'll teach ME to say I don't do something…
I am *not* a runner. No really, I’m not. But when Jo said she wanted to do the 5K with me I realized it might be a little more fun if I’m not walking the whole time while people are wizzing by me at a fabulous runner’s pace. LOL I have to admit, I’ve always [...]
I'm on a roll! LOL
I am *SO* excited! Jo has been really into running lately. She absolutely loves it. She has been running the mile at the high school track for a couple weeks now. Anyway, a good friend shared this link on Facebook. Jo and I looked at it and she is TOTALLY on board! I told her [...]
4 Weeks Left
Till the end of my current fitness goal. I have 10 pounds left to loose. This week I lost: 3 pounds 3.5 inches. I was sick this week, again. That is kind of frustrating and I even missed two workouts. This week I plan to get back into the swing of things. Yay! I love [...]
