What a thrilling and exciting day to join 750 thousand people in downtown LA yesterday! This is why I marched: I am a Believer in God’s love and in Christ’s peace and in unity for all.  I marched because I am anti hate. I marched because I am for women. I stand with my fellow sister’s to unite in love. I did not vote for our president, but I take a stand against the hatred he speaks with his…

December was tough. I tended to reach for comfort food and overate at parties.  I was working on Physical Therapy for my knee, so I didn’t do all the workouts that I really wanted to do. I was very saddened by the loss of some of my favorite celebrities and artists and the junk in the news (disappointed by the Election and deeply saddened by the tragedy all over the world).  I was homesick and…

The results are in: I lost about 7 lbs! I lost half an inch off my hips, thighs and calves!  I can’t believe I made it all 30 days (give or take a Thanksgiving cheat day!) ! Now tomorrow I’m not gonna pig out but I will limit my Gluten, dairy, sugar and processed foods if and when at all possible! I don’t wanna gain weight back! Today I went to the gym and did arms and core!  I had a delicious…

Meant to Post this!

Oops! I must have been tired last night and forgot to press Publish! I started the day by thinking I had to be up early for a workout but I instead stumbled on a new Pilates class they added at my local Lil 24 HR fitness!!! It was wonderful!! The teacher went slow which is awesome:) Just what I needed! It is Giving Tuesday so I wore my Reliv shirt, to share about my favorite charity, their…

Today started out a little frustrating.  Lefty was super annoying this morning at the park.  A nice gentleman with his well trained dog (who was off leash) warned us that the neighbors might complain(I told him I wouldn’t bring him again).  I was embarrassed because a) I don’t want him to distract us from workouts b) I would hate to bother those neighbors c) I second guessed my mothering skills.…

Sundays are our rest days:) Today marks the first Sunday in Advent. Advent means arrival, appearance, emergence. Today we rested and read. I just had a little fruit. We went to a wonderful church service. I went to Yoga. We had brunch of eggs, bacon and a little sweet tater. We put the tree up! I went to Target(which was a zoo). We relaxed and read and had more Tea. We finished with the best…

Time for a cleanse! I wanted to stick closer to Whole 30 today. I only had a Cutie mini tangerine and a green apple because I wasn’t that hungry this morning. Housecleaned. Taught Piano. I fixed a huge salad for lunch. I went to Acupuncture. When I walked out, the rain was coming down so that cancelled our workout plans.  We completed our 21 day Scrumptious Body challenge with Valerie!  But that…

Breakfast today? Leftover baked stuffed apple of course! Ran errands and went to a good strong workout with Valerie(gonna be sore tomorrow). Walked my friend’s dog and fed my friend’s cat(two pet sitting jobs). Finally we made it to like this five course meal with my sisters! And it was a m a z i n g!!! Quality Time with these two gorgeous ladies made me a little homesick, but warmed my heart…

Well, I tried to sleep in a little:) I was tempted to stay in my Pajamas all day. We had baked stuffed apples together this morning:) Lefty and I went hiking: Watched a bit of the Parade and some Twilight Zone! Then we ate our fill at the Cousins’! I did ok, but gave in with the whipped cream! I was good about grains and didn’t have a lot of sugar just a few bites of everything. Still feel very…

I was in the Sauna by 6:25 am! It was very nice and quiet.  Then Valerie and I worked out and did our Pre Turkey Burn! Next I had my quick shower and breakfast of boiled egg and grapefruit. I went to the MRI for my knee. At one point I moved so he had to do that one over again but other than that I was fine:) I will find out results Monday. This means I made it to work early! I had avocado and…

This morning, I don’t know if it was the red shirt from the Mustache Dache, or my new leggings from Girlfriend Collective but my Trainer friend Valerie noticed I am losing weight!!! So that made me feel good and start my day on a high note! I made the most delicious breakfast Had a grilled chicken salad for lunch! Work was fine; my knee has been bugging me a lot though. Tonight’s dinner was…

Get that aggression Out!

Look what our Trainer Valerie brought!  We kicked it and whacked it and punched the heck out of that thing! It did help get my aggression out! Then I went home and got Lefty and went by the store to refill my Kangen Alkaline water. I made a berry smoothie for breakfast.  Then I spent like 30min browsing Barnes and Noble! I had a pretty good day at work (except for a minor printer frustration).…

This is how we were pretty much all afternoon and evening!  So much so that I forgot to post! We started the day like this: Running (jog walking) the Mustache David for men’s health!  Boy was it a lot of fun! Really nice freebies (I only had Whole30 approved stuff though)and booths and the coolest medal(his legs move)! The rain started so we went home afterwards. I made a healthy protein brunch…
