Losing weight isn’t easy. There’s always a bit of a struggle, though some people struggle less than others. Every body is different. And it’s not just the person and/or how we manage our body, but how the inside of the body ticks. As I said in my first getting fit post, ‘time to dump the…

pedi care on a budget
Lately we’ve been taking a close look at our budget and trying to trim the fat. We’ve got a lot going on it life, and sometimes it’s good to take a look at where the extra fluff spending is and see what you can cut out to save and help prepare for what’s coming. (for…

no membership needed workouts – 3 miles in my own living room
First let me say that, though I think we established this in last weeks post, I won’t be going to the gym. Through my weight loss and get fit journey, everything that I’ll be doing will be in my own home, or neighborhood. There are a lot of great workout options out there, without having…

Having Monday ‘off’ made last week really fly by. And it’s always a bit funny to me because it’s just one day. Why does it throw off my entire week? It’s like a mental game with myself and I’m not winning. ha! Last week a blogging friend joined this weekly challenge for the first time….

bad nights make for rough mornings. Smile.

It lets that blogger/site know which articles they’ve published that are really popular and…
