NO APOLOGIES running! (guest post)

by

  Tennyson said that in spring, a young man’s fancy turns to love, and this may be true for men, but for most women I know, in spring, our thoughts turn to exercise. After the pale, sluggish winter retreats, our pale, sluggish thighs emerge, and something must be done about them before beach season arrives in force. Since nobody really wants to eat less, all that’s left to do is ... Continue Reading

by

I've been watching Carla for years. She was one of my first 5 friends on Twitter.. true. She inspired me to get my (big, incredibly painful Isis tattoo) after she did the Dr. Seuss sleeve. She clearly has a higher pain tolerance than I do. Like all of you, I love her warmth, her commitment, her real-live way of making it work on her own terms. Here's something you might consider, I hope it adds ... Continue Reading

Are you MOTIVATED or are you COMMITTED? (guest post)

by

When I first started my fitness journey it was a chore. Workouts were just another thing to get out of the way, something to check off the list. Prepping a days worth of meals for the next day of work, school and gym before I could go to bed was a necessary part of my schedule. I looked forward to weekends were I could sleep in, have a “free day” for my favorite foods and sit on the couch ... Continue Reading

This ... Continue Reading

ROCKING OUT (guest post)

I was sitting in the living room folding a load of laundry when I heard my 5 year old daughter in her bedroom. “Hey everybody, thanks for coming out! Does anyone have any questions before we get started with the class?”   I stopped what I was doing and went and peeked in on her. Instead of getting shy when she saw me, she puffed right up. “Mama! Did you come to take MY Zumba class?” She ... Continue Reading
