I bought one of the pairs you have shown. (Dance Now Unisex Split-Sole Canvas Dance Sneaker) from Discount Dance through Amazon.com and was disappointed in them. I thought they would be so much easier to dance in, but it made it worse. My feet felt…
Zumba is a hot fitness craze! It gives you a great workout while having fun doing latin and hip hop dance moves. Join if you do this in your own home(with the help of one of their DVDs) or at a Zumba class near you.
Try it you will love it! Make sure you break off the stalky ends. The trick is to hold both ends in your fingertips and snap. It will break in the perfect spot to get rid of the ends. Seems like you are loosing a lot at first, but trust me. Be fore…
Way to go! I feel for you with the pain. I had a similar thing a few weeks back. It was sciatic nerve pain. I ended up being off of the exercise wagon for a whole week. When I went back to the gym i told my Zumba instructor and she gave me some good…
Way to go! You should be so proud of yourself! Very inspiring!
I feel for you. I have been there as well. When our second came my husband and I were in the exact same spot. I had major baby blues and could not understand why it was so much harder all around with the second one. Don't beat yourself up about the…
Oh snap a groin pull! I had that a couple months back from overexercising. I could still continue exercising, like doing some light walking or doing arm weights til it heals. It sucks I know. I stopped working out but I should've done low impact wor…
Way to go! You should be proud!
That is great! It should be published! I can so relate to old me rearing her ugly head! Let's hope she stays far away from you!
Stay focused hide all the snacks, tell hubby to take them on his trip! lol put kids on fruit and veggie snacks!

Not a good day so far
I am just having a down day. I injured my groin to hip area (can't even pinpoint how) and have not been able to exercise all week. Even having trouble gettting out of chairs and walking. This sucks! I was on such a streak and now I am going to have a setback. I do not want to fall back into old habits of being a couch potato. Then I went out to luch with my kids today and totally over ate. We went to Rocky Rococo's and I thought I was being good by getting salad instead of breadsticks as my side… Continue

Hit the restart button!
Well, it has been a while since I have blogged and I need to get back to it to stay accountable. I have been slacking a bit on my eating the last week and a half and it is showing on the scale. I am close to making my first goal which is to hit the 180's. I was at 192 this morning. The problem is I have been hovering around that for the past week or so. I made the mistake of buying a bunch of carb snacks for the girls at the store the other night and have been sneaking bites of theirs when they… Continue

The Biggest Loser Class
So I pushed myself to go to The Biggest Loser class at the club today. I am just not ready for it yet. This is my second time going, different instructor today. The first time I wanted to cry and this time I thought I was going to pass out. It is just so intense! I have only been going to the gym for the last 3 weeks and have been feeling so good about my progress, but each time I go to this class I feel like I have gotten no where. I also did not eat enough to fuel me up before class. Had eaten… Continue

Points for the day
Well today was my first day counting points. I have my books from when I did the Flexpoints plan a few years back, so I hope they are still the same. Overall not too bad. I did go over by 5 points, but I also had a birthday lunch to attend with no alternative options. I tried to focus my points there. Although it was more points then I intended, I keep reminding myself that prior to today I would have had twice as large of helpings and would have polished off the piece of peach pie and ice cream… Continue

A New Day
Just found this site this morning and I am excited to see if it helps me to stay focused on my health plan. I joined the gym about 2 weeks ago and am slowly getting into a routine of going there. Now it is time to get my eating under control. I have done WW in the past and am going to try and give it a go on my own for a while. I figure posting my daily points and activity might help keep me honest! It is so easy to overlook those little nibbles off of my daughters' plates or tastes while cookin… Continue

Gt2Blev said… - Hi Amy, i was stuck and couldnt push through 192 for several weeks, it was very frustrating. I finally did though, so stay encouraged and switch up your routine or add more days, that might help. You can do it!!

Angie said… - Hey Amy! Thanks for the comment. My sludges are definitely not for the faint of heart, but I tend to gravitate toward weird food :)
Honestly, my pre-workout snack varies day to day. Some days 1/2 a banana is enough, some days I need a lot more. For the last few months I've been sticking with the 1/2 banana and it's been working really well, even for my long runs which surprises me. Some days I'll put a little almond butter on it if I feel hungrier, or have a small bowl of puffed rice and almond milk. Some days I eat breakfast first (usually oatmeal) and then run a few hours later, and that also works! My husband can't eat a darn thing before he works out and I have no idea how he does it. I would pass out!
Welcome welcome! Keep posting like crazy and stay accountable and you'll do great here. We'll be looking for you :)
