I swear "journey" must be the word used most on my blog. Sometimes I think it’s cheesy but when you really think about it, everything we do in life is a journey, a process. You don’t just wake up one day with a new skill, a new habit or even a new perspective. Every day [...]
Where are you on your exercise journey?

? for Weight Loss Maintainers…. How do you do it?
November 12, 2008
Plucking another great question from the pool of suggestions this week. This time, it’s one for the maintainers.
A few people had specific questions, so I thought I’d take a stab at them individually and then let other maintainers chime in.
Weekend Quote: Acceptance and Change
November 9, 2008
As I sit here in my hotel room, in Chicago, at 6AM (don’t ask… I’m 700 miles away from the toddler but somehow I "hear" him - I think he has me trained) and reflect on the weekend so far, I decided to do a little search for a weekend quote.
I wanted to [...]

Weekend Quote: Just Do IT!
October 18, 2008
What ever it may be, DO IT! :~)
This weekends quote is inspired by my Weight Watchers meeting this week. The meeting was great, another member reached a 70lb loss and the group celebrated her accomplishment. THAT’S why I love going.
Besides the celebration the topic this week started off with a quote by [...]
Weekend Quote: I Haven’t Failed
October 4, 2008
Remember the old quite smoking ads? The ones that said the more times you try to quit, the more likely you are to be successful the next time you try.
Let’s think about that for a minute.
Just enjoy the trip you’ll take as a train.

"… but I have to work so hard at it."
Someone said that to me today in a discussion about weight loss. I don’t think she reads my blog so she has no idea of my personal weight history but I have to laugh at the statement 1.) because I used to say it, 2.) because [...]

August 22, 2008
Ok, are you ready for this? 26 minutes and only 4 questions! Yes, ladies and gentleman, I can TALK! But the first two questions were really good ones! Or at least ones that I have a lot to say about! :~P
Also notice the markers on the video bar. I’ve added comments that mark where [...]

Why isn’t my unhappiness motivation enough? - A Follow Up
August 4, 2008
I’m going to let this correspondence speak for itself. It’s long, but if I felt that way and she feels that way there have to be more young women out there struggling with these same issues. How do we stop the cycle?

While working my but off in the Boot Camp class this morning Home, by Chris Daughtry from American Idol came on. I’m not the biggest fan of the song but one of the lyrics spoke to me today…
Willpower, Motivation or Something Else?
February 18, 2008
Before leaving work tonight, the husband called and asked if I’d be willing to pick up McDonald’s on the way home.
*Sigh*
Not Fast food, anything but that! Especially after my weekend of indiscretions which, unfortunately, included a trip to MickeyD’s.
But I said yes, and hit the drive thru on my home. [...]
