Summer Fitness – Day 4

Summer Fitness – Day 4

Yesterday was the 4th day of my workout regiment.  I overslept and did not do my morning mile walk.  By the time I woke up, we had to rush to get to our daily appointment.  Oops. I did start my day reasonably healthy food wise though. I had a bowl of plain Special K for breakfast to reduce the calories.  When I went to pick up Cameron from her summer activity program, they were celebrating the … Read entire article »

20 Second Fitness Day 3

20 Second Fitness Day 3

I started out my third day of fitness with  a mile walk with Leslie Sansone.  My plan is to start each morning with this mile walk.  I am currently completing her 5 Day Slim Down where she gives you a different mile each day. Yesterday’s focus (while still walking a mile) was arms.  And after completing the mile and doing all of her arm movements while I was walking, my arms did hurt.  Not a … Read entire article »

Swim Suit Season Around the Corner

Swimsuit season is just around the corner and it seems everyone is looking for a way to achieve some quick weight loss. The current method at my house – jumping on the trampoline. We haven’t been on scales to see the results, but we know we ache after an hour of jumping…and if you hurt, you must be accomplishing something right? Also in our house, we are uping our water intaking. Can’t wait for summer!! … Read entire article »

When All Else Fails

When all else fails, do you turn to slimming pills? I haven’t decided yet. I’m against medication across the board really. I don’t even take Tylenol for headaches until they are unbearable. So taking medication for anything is hard for me, but then I keep looking at the lack of results of everything I’ve tried in the past and I’m not so confident anymore. I’m going to give these 10 Minute Workouts a try though before I decide on a new plan of attack. … Read entire article »

Exercise – More Energy?

I’ve heard over and over that if you start exercising, you’ll have more energy. So my question is how do you start exercising when you have NO ENERGY?  My solution? I can’t afford, nor do I have room for, any type of fitness equipment which would be my preferred way of working out so I’m going to try the 10 Minute Workout series.  I’ve set up several in my Netflix Que and hope to find a couple that I’ll enjoy. If I can just incorporate 10 minutes each morning into my routine, would that help? I’m not sure, but I plan to find out. I’ll let you know. … Read entire article »

Working and Exercise is WORKING!

In the last 2 weeks, I’ve lost 6 pounds.  I’m so excited.  The only down side to me routine….I’m exhausted ALL THE TIME at home so I’m getting little blogging and lesson plans done.   Today I took the day “off.”  Why? Because I had a teacher workshop to go to.  That’s kind of sad when going to a workshop in the summer is a day off, huh?  LOL  While I should have been paying attention today I was going through emails as they too had piled up OF COURSE and I had one on Stimerex ES. I had never heard of it so I went to check it out.  I usually am so tempted and interested in reading about any diet supplement, but this time even though I read a … Read entire article »

It’s Summer Time!!

Yep.  I’ve been not posting (I know, I know), but it’s now summer time.  Maybe it won’t be “officially” summer for 3 more weeks, but once school is out, we consider it summer at my house. I’ve had 2 pool naps since Friday – that’s summer!  We’ve cooked more outside than in – that’s summer!  Cameron is signed up for the summer reading program as well as dance and twirling – that’s summer.  The house is getting cleaned room by room, top to bottom – that ‘s summer, and I dn’t like my weight and have to do something about it – that’s summer.  I’ve been looking at some different exercise videos and I think I’ve got a plan for daily exercise … Read entire article »

Review & Giveaway: Let’s Get Fit with Sane Fitness

I tried to schedule this review/giveaway last week over at All About Kimberly, but for some reason it didn’t post.  I just drafted another review this afternoon, and it is doing something really funny.  I can’t figure it out.  So here  is try 3 (third time is the charm right?). I am constantly struggling with my weight. I know I need to lose some weight. I know I need to get more fit, but I seem to be so tired that I’m not accomplishing anything this year.  Or at least I wasn’t.  I’ve been a firm believer in my WiiFit, but it takes time and lately my time has been limited. I’ve also been away from home a lot.  The solution – Sane Fitness. This is such a simple and unique idea. … Read entire article »
