Does anyone know what happened to...
She’s the reason I made this account to begin with. I know she hasn’t been on for a while but it bothers me to see her account suddenly deactivated.

This new routine is kicking my ass with 1 more day...
I’m actually excited to do my weigh in on the 4th of April. If I don’t get a result this time then I’ll know something is seriously wrong with my body.

After going over 6 weeks of workouts I think a huge reason for my lack of progress is because my workouts have become too routine. Same miles, same times, same days, same strength training, even the intervals are the same. Over the last few weeks it slowly became more and more of a pattern until it ended up repetitive as the rest of my life. I think it’s time to read through my fitness...

a rant on my life at the moment
Patience has never been one of my virtues and playing the waiting game is driving me crazy. I love to see results and over the months I’ve learned what is realistic and what is delusional. However to work so hard with Jillian’s videos and get out there jogging 4 days a week, to eat a healthy diet and barely see a dent in the scale after all this time… Especially with all the...

How to accept a compliment →
I’ve noticed that a large amount of my followers could use this. One of the biggest ways to test your self-esteem is by how you accept compliments. Do you say “thank you” or do you put yourself down? I personally always cheerily say “thank you” even if I suspect that it might be a passive-aggressive stab. I’ve discovered that the best way to deal with negative...

I've updated my supplements
I started the herb Saw Palmetto a few days ago. The herbalist said that it’s suppose to help with some of the symptoms for PCSO and at $8 a bottle it beats anything the doctors could prescribe. I’m currently taking 4 550mg doses a day and I should have enough to make it through the end of the month. If I don’t see any changes in the oncoming weeks I might get a 2nd bottle...

Today I convinced my mom to do aerobics with me. I don’t think she should have done the full hour since she has arthritis in her knees (and she’ll definitely pay for it tomorrow), but she did and I’m really impressed.
I never really liked the phrase “give 110%” but I think I saw the true meaning tonight. It’s not just about doing better then your best. To me it...
lifeisthejourney replied to your post: I want to beat my head against a wall whenever I see people write things like “LOL lost 20 pounds and now I’m stalled, guess I have to start working out.”
People keep saying to me, the first weight comes off easy then you have to work for it, and I’m like.. this is easy?? lol!
Exactly! I’m earning every 1/2 pound that comes off....

Yesterday I got into a debate with some women at...
They’re insisting that my 1500 calories a day is way too low for my size and activity level. I’m insisting that after years of starvation my body can’t process high amounts of calories properly. They’ve talked me into giving it a try, so this is me keeping my calories to around 1800 and praying I don’t regret it.

I was finally able to try coconut flour yesterday and immediately went to work creating a healthier zucchini bread and carrot cake. I ended up with muffins. They didn’t turn out as high and pretty as they usually do, but they were moist and flavorful.
Sorry that there aren’t any photos. Everyone was so eager to try them that the muffins were gone before I got around to it. At least I...
