my current feelings about fitness through visuals:         

this time of the year is kind of crazy.  it’s hard to stay on schedule.  but i’m trying to make it work as best i can.  i’m not tracking my food every day, but almost every day.  and i’m still working out consistently 4-6 times a week.  i kind of miss the booty program, but… Continue reading WOW 5•20 | well hello there, kickboxing. it’s been awhile.

 so i took my measurements this past weekend. no real changes except in the boob area. seriously? i mean, I always want them smaller. but what about the rest of my body? maybe take from there too?! but whatever… i’m almost used to the no progress/plateau thing. it’s been going on so long that i… Continue reading WOW 5•6 | the never ending plateau

i’m struggling a bit lately.  my funk (aka anxiety) is back and i feel like a mess some of the time, but i’m keeping it together.  it’s not as strong as it has been in the past so i hope its stay will be brief and light.  focusing on my health goals is helping.  i’ve… Continue reading WOW 4•29 | ch-ch-ch-changes

i’m settling into a kind of routine lately with my workouts.  i used to always use a regular schedule.  but then i started trying all different things and that kind of got pushed to the wayside. but i’ve been working on my fitness blender better booty program* for going on three weeks.  it is three… Continue reading WOW 4•22 | finding a schedule again

i’m struggling with motivation lately.  i’m not losing an lbs.  and it’s been three months to the dot since i have really focused on the task at hand.  i know i’m making other gains, but this stupid little thing is frustrating me so much.  that number should reflect at least some of the hard work… Continue reading WOW 4•1 | ways to stay motivated

the good news is that i was active for every day of spring break.  the bad news is that i cheated on my food.  a lot. some of it i don’t even feel bad about. exhibit A: this tasty prime rib dinner, which is quite possibly one of the best meals of my life.  you… Continue reading WOW 3•25 | well, spring break is over…

i finished my first round of my 8 week fitness blender program last week.  and let me tell you…i was exhausted.  i had worked out for 5 days a week for an average of 45-60 minutes each day for eight weeks straight and two weeks before that.  i needed a little break. but i didn’t… Continue reading WOW 3•11 | sometimes you need a rest

tomorrow, i will be finished with my 8 week program from fitness blender.  i am so excited to be done with it, not because it’s done but because i finished it.  i did the whole thing, including those two days i missed.  i’m looking forward to startIng it over because i know i’m going to… Continue reading WOW 3•4 | time to set another goal
