I find that on my blog and in my everyday life too, I focus a lot on the challenges of losing weight and staying fit. Struggling to get to the next level, finding time to work out, avoiding the evil foods that are everywhere….especially right now with Halloween tomorrow. I’ve yet to let Halloween...

I’ve gone back to my beginnings with my weight-loss food choices. I had been rocking the boat as of late, letting some of the old, “not so good for me” foods back in and leaving some of the “better for you” foods out. I’m a convenience eater, meaning my food has to be quick...

Yesterday, I went to watch the Cedar Beach Sprint Triathlon. My brother, who got me into this in the first place, was competing, as was my cousin, who got my brother hooked on triathlon. While it was a sprint distance, 750m swim, 15-mile bike and 5k run, I chose not to compete because I...

Yesterday I had a day off from work. “Yippee!!!!” you might say. “A day off, oh how I could use a day off from work,” you might think, feeling slightly jealous that I actually had a coveted day off from work. However, when you hear WHY I was off from work, you will definitely...
