I used to focus a lot on “NSV” or Non-Scale Victories. I feel like I haven’t blogged about them in a while. Lately I’ve kind of abandoned the scale all together (except for bi...
When you set out to lose 200+ pounds, no one tells you how hard the emotional battle will be. You hear about calories and workouts and motivation….but no one talks about the downright shitty si...
I can’t believe I went a week in between posts! I had been doing good about queuing up 3-4 things I could publish during the week. Sorry. Things you may have missed: I joined a walking club at ...
I have a serious problem with my mind wandering lately. I’m always either thinking about what needs to get done, thinking about how I could have done things differently in the past or thinking ...
I was on a big kick for a while where I interviewed friends (and new friends!) who had lost weight. I loved hearing all about their transformations. My focus changed when I found Jess and Jolene and ...
A friend of mine posted something on Facebook that sparked internal debate all day. Question of the day: When do you give up? My response was: When you realize what you were fighting for isn’t ...
Happy Monday everyone! I had all sorts of lovely posts planned for last week – but the week ran away from me. So, I’ve compiled everything into one big post chock full of inspiration and ...
You all have heard me wax poetic about my love affair with barre n9ne for months now. I figured it was time to introduce you to the ladies behind the brand! Meet Tanya Croteau (owner and founder) and...
I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately, and while it’s not directly weight-loss related I’m going to blog about it nonetheless! I can count on one hand the number of seri...
Sunday night musings – list style? Sure why not. *I’m obsessed with shows about transformation. Biggest Loser, America’s Next Top Model (I know it’s trashy fabulous, but I can...
I recently had a discussion with a new friend about my “weight loss journey” (man, what a long, strange trip it’s been). Telling her how I got started I was shocked at the then and ...
Easter Sunday was sadly not spent in the company of my fam – but in LA cruising the city alone. It was interesting for me to spend the bulk of my day alone – being such a social person! I...
So remember I was talking about March Madness? Well March has nothing on April! Last Tues/Weds/Thurs we had this awesome (and intense!) training at work. I got to connect with folks from all around t...
<< Editor’s Note: My mom informed me my sunglasses are actually Gucci. I’m sorry Patrizio di Marco, please forgive me! >> Thursdays are my least favorite day. I have to...
Dear Weight Watchers, This on-again, off-again affair we’ve had for 7 years isn’t working for me any longer – I need to move on. We’ve seen some good times (getting under 300 ...
I’m sitting here thinking about last week – the craziness, the PAIN (more on that in a second) and how GOOD I feel today.It’s amazing. I feel like I’m finally “getting m...
TGIF! Oh man what a wonderful Friday. Why you ask? 5 reasons: 1. I have barre n9ne tonight with the lovely Jess from EatDrinkBreatheSweat 2. I have NO WORK this weekend! Hooray! I was onsite last wee...
OMG it’s March 1st! And its snowing…boooo! I’m supposed to head out to Detroit at 5pm today for a weekend install (and a family visit!) but I suspect my flight will be delayed/canc...
I’m always thinking about what could have been, might have been, would have been….it consumes my thoughts before bed and when I first wake up. I have tried to quell these thoughts but it...
A friend has been hounding me to watch “Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead” for weeks. I finally took his advice and watched it on Netflix streaming (love Netflix) Sunday night. Holy mackerel̷...
I had a nice, relaxing three-day weekend. Rest, trashy TV, girly lunches, pedicures – divine! I decided to relish in my “non-schedule” and sign up for Monday’s barre method cl...
I usually participate in Lent (or try to) not because of the religious symbolism but because of the challenge. I like seeing if I can give up something I love for 6 weeks.I was raised Catholic, but n...
Last year’s “Love Your Body (even if it’s just for today)” was such a highlight of my month that I need to do it again. I have been thinking a lot lately about my own body hang-ups ...
So it’s here…..the big 3-0. It feels different than I imagined – but not in a bad way. Different …. weird. I’m sitting on my friends’ roof-deck writing this post &...
This was such a good exercise last time, I think I need to do it again. I’m going to write one for myself a year ago and to myself in a year from now. Just about to turn 29 ~ and just about to ...
Ya know how people always say “find a happy-medium“? I never got that expression. I want a venti-happy, not a little happy or a medium happy! Well, reflecting on my first 13 days of 2012&...
I was lucky to spend NYE low key with a good friend playing games, watching the ball drop and drinking delicious Proseco! She and I both have weight to lose, and we’ve been going to WW meetings...
It feels strange to me that we’re about to ring in a new year. Where did 2011 go?! (Side note: where is the snow? I’m not complaining…but it doesn’t really feel like winter in...
Life has been so go-go-go lately that I am finding myself thinking of updates I need to post….but never actually typing them out. I wish someone would invent a device that pulled my thoughts ou...
I am so thankful for a wonderful family, friends who support me, sparkles, a kickass job and most of all my health. This year it has really hit home how luck I am to be on a journey of weight-loss. I...
