What’s the secret?
I envy those of you who can let things just “roll off your back”. If something bad/irritating happens that you have no control over, you just say “oh well … nothing I could do” and move on. What’s your secret? Even if something is completely out of my control, I still let it get to … Continue Reading
Too much?
I have a question for those of you who exercise regularly. Is the following routine too much (too soon)? The following is my plan for the mornings (before work during the week): Sunday – day of rest Monday – elliptical Tuesday – elliptical Wednesday – Walk Away the Pounds – 1 mi routine Thursday – … Continue Reading
I don’t know how to breathe
This morning, I got up at 5am (well, actually 5:09am … I hit the snooze button once) and got on my elliptical. I lasted 20 min and went 1.25 miles. My legs/body would have been able to go farther, but I could have died if I had tried … literally. I apparently don’t know how … Continue Reading
If that isn’t motivation
I finally set up my Wii Fit this afternoon. I did the Body Test to determine my BMI & Wii Fit age. Not good. Not good at all. My Wii Fit age is 52 (and I’m really 35). I’m not gonna share my BMI … I’ll just say I need to bring that down (a … Continue Reading
And so the journey begins
My New Year’s resolution for this year is: I resolve to be better to myself. To treat myself with the respect I deserve (stop beating myself up for every little thing) and do my damnedest to get healthy and be happy. This isn’t just a “fly by night” resolution. This is a change in my … Continue Reading
New Toy
Ok … it’s not really a toy. It’s a tool. (And a bonus … it’s got a Biggest Loser game that came w/ it.) I mentioned last week that I was embarking on a new journey … a journey to get healthy and happy. I’ve gotten off to a rough start. I’ve only worked out … Continue Reading
So … the iPhone is coming to Verizon
Big whoop. I’m gonna stick w/ my Droid 2. :razz2: I had an iPod Touch, which is basically an iPhone w/o the actual “phone” part. I liked it while I had it. I basically used it for the music player, but I did have some apps on it that I used on a regular basis. … Continue Reading
Wrong time of year
As I mentioned in my last post, I’m trying to eat healthy … or at least eat normal meals. I’ve been eating so shitty for so long … it’s not good. And I love to cook. I just don’t have the energy/motivation/inspiration to cook anything. Partly because I live alone and partly because I have … Continue Reading
It’s About Damn Time
My New Year’s resolution for this year is (grabbed from Facebook where I first documented it): I resolve to be better to myself. To treat myself with the respect I deserve (stop beating myself up for every little thing) and do my damnedest to get healthy and be happy. I have been my own worst … Continue Reading
Are you there Santa? It’s me Becky.
You know Santa … people keep telling me that you don’t exist. That I’m 35 years old now, and I need to grow up. Well, you know what? They can kiss my ass. :razz2: If I wanna believe in Santa, then I’m damn well gonna believe in Santa. So … what’s up with you Santa? … Continue Reading
