Planning To Lose

Since I began my journey toward weight-loss and fitness I have been on the lookout for inspirational stories and motivational tips. For example, today’s MSN ran a great feature on Weight Loss Success Stories: The 100 Pound Club . I also have friends who have lost large amounts of weight and have maintained for many years. What [...]

To Tell or Not To Tell

That is the question. So far, I have not divulged my latest weight-loss strategy to any of my friends and family network, other than my immediate family and a couple of best friends. I guess I feel it will be easier not to until they start seeing actual success. It will remove a lot of [...]

Heavenly Walk

Last night I took a walk with Joey. He’s a red heeler / shepherd mix -  and I consider him my “baby boy”. I love this dog! He was my Mother’s Day present 9 years ago when I rescued him from the shelter. We have been inseparable since. Joey believes that I am the most important [...]

HUMAN FLIGHT – WingSuit Base Jumping

Here is some unbelievable footage of human flight! I actually had never heard of Wing Suits before. I am always in awe of the daring it takes to do something like this. If I could overcome my insane fear of heights and fear of being smashed to pieces, I imagine this experience might be quite [...]

Obama and McCain – Dance Off!

This video parody was created in October 2008, but it still makes me laugh every time! You know, I wouldn’t put it past our president-elect to actually have a few of these moves in him. Keep an eye peeled for Barry & Michelle’s fancy footwork at the upcoming Inauguration Ball. I had to take the [...]

SNL Justin Timberlake and Beyonce “Single Ladies” Parody

The SNL Skit poking fun of Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” music video with Justin Timberlake made me laugh ’til I cried! According to one source, this much-sought-after skit was pulled from YouTube and NBC’s official SNL site due to a “Music Clearance” Issue. With all the slander and copyright infringement SNL naturally does in their daily [...]

Do You Moo Gong Do?

Today I got an email that employee fitness courses are being offered at a big discount. So, I looked up the classes. I needed an early afternoon time that would work with my schedule, and the winner was a course called “Moo Gong Do“. Moo What?!?! I have no idea. Obviously it is of asian [...]

Is Weight Loss A Luxury Item?

My New Year 2009 resolution is to lose 50 pounds by July. OK. I know that’s a pretty hefty goal. But there it is. Obviously, I need a plan, and some help. I have tried many different weight loss programs over the past 30+ years of my dieting life. (I’m 42. I remember my first diet [...]

Turning Trouble Upside Down

Six months ago, my husband’s company announced that “due to the economic downturn” they were going to be making a 25% “reduction of force”. Unfortunately, my main man was one of those “lucky contestants” to receive a departure invitation. As of today, he still has not been able to find permanent employment. With Thanksgiving past, and [...]
