No Damage Control Needed
Monday, January 08, 2018 0 comments I went to Eureka Springs, Arkansas over the weekend with my husband. We packed food so I could eat healthier, but I did not count calories or get any exercise on Saturday or Sunday. We stopped for breakfast on the way home on Sunday, which of ... Read more
A Cabin In The Woods
Friday, January 05, 2018 4 comments As a Christmas gift, my husband gave me a weekend away. This weekend we are going to Eureka Springs, Arkansas where he rented a cabin for us. We try to do this at least once per year, usually around our anniversary in June but he felt that I c... Read more
Not Perfect, But I'm Doing It
Thursday, January 04, 2018 4 comments This is hard! It is so much easier to just sit on my couch and think about being healthy and in better shape. But it feels so good! As hard as it is to make myself get out of bed and work out, as hard as it is to eat healthy and be discipline... Read more
Just A Minor Bump In The Road
Wednesday, January 03, 2018 3 comments Yesterday was not a good day. I felt so bad when I got up and it lasted most of the day. By 3:00 in the afternoon I had developed a really bad headache and felt shaky. That is when I realized that I had not eaten anything all day. I had brou... Read more
First Stumbling Block
Tuesday, January 02, 2018 2 comments I should have been prepared for this because it happens every time I start exercising consistently. Every time I get started, I wake up sick within a week. Since exercising isn't a habit, it usually derails my progress and ends my workout stre... Read more

Never Let Fear Decide Your Fate
Saturday, December 30, 2017 5 comments This has been in my mind for over a year, but I have not voiced it until now. Fear is the demon that has been holding me back. Although it is contradictory, I have a fear of failing but also a fear of succeeding. It sounds crazy, but I have s... Read more
Starting Over
Friday, December 29, 2017 5 comments It has been three, almost four, years since I have been on this site. I find that my weight is almost exactly the same as it was in 2008, when I first started on SparkPeople. All of the progress I made so many years ago has been lost. It is a... Read more
Busy But Staying Focused
Monday, February 10, 2014 2 comments I am starting to feel overwhelmed. There is so much to do to prepare for our move and time is speeding along. Not only do I have to worry about getting my house packed up, I also have to get everything caught up here at work. Oh, and I need t... Read more
Who Knew?
Wednesday, February 05, 2014 3 comments I have said it so many times and always thought it was a coincidence or psychosomatic. A few days after I start eating healthy and exercising I get sick. It never fails. I get a stomach bug, a cold or my sinuses act up. This interrupts my mo... Read more
Changes
Tuesday, February 04, 2014 3 comments Where to start? Things seem really surreal right now. So I guess I should start from the beginning. My job has been unstable for almost a year now. There are so many uncertainties and I am not sure that the organization will make it through.... Read more
Roadblocks and a New Perspective
Thursday, January 30, 2014 6 comments I have felt like I am in an unending cycle of failure. I have a little success and then I self destruct. After a few days or weeks, I decide to start over. ![]()
Rewards
Wednesday, January 08, 2014 4 comments Do you reward yourself? This is something I have always struggled with. My go to reward has always been food, so sometimes I would ruin a good day with a 1,000 calorie dessert. Other times I would punish myself for not meeting a goal when I w...
