Taking my own advice
Monday, June 03, 2013 1 comments I have a particularly favorite quote I need to apply to my life more often. To paraphrase, it says "to know is not enough, you must apply". As I sit in front of the monitor, dressed in my workout clothes, I can see the gym across the stree... Read more
Getting it in
Friday, October 26, 2012 2 comments I was supposed to run a 5k yesterday but life got in the way. Life got in the way and derailed my training; then I was no longer able to get to the race. I got a battery for my scale a couple of weeks ago, and even though I know there are ... Read more
Little Victories
Tuesday, August 14, 2012 7 comments If it's to be, it's up to me. I just had a feeling of such joy and peace, in spite of the chaos in my world. A world in transition. Things don't always go exactly as you think they will, don't always go according to plan. The key for me ... Read more
Building Muscle - Creating Success
Tuesday, August 14, 2012 2 comments Mental muscle! I'm really good at building the physical kind. I thought I was good at the mental kind, too. Alas, I came within 21 pounds of square one! Oh my! Much too close for comfort! When I feel stress, more than any other fee... Read more
Weight loss 101
Wednesday, August 08, 2012 5 comments I know what to do. I know what not to do. It's easy to do / it's easy not to do. Do I want to more than not? More days than not? Oh gosh...if losing a pound were as easy as posting a blog, there would still be overweight people.... Read more
Too Much Two Love
Wednesday, August 08, 2012 5 comments How's this for motivation: there's too much of me to love. I have to laugh out loud as I'm typing because it's true. There's too much and it's too uncomfortable and I have aches and pains because of it. I'm sick and tired and over it. Once ... Read more
External motivation - exit stage left!
Thursday, March 10, 2011 7 comments Well, the prospect of looking awesome for a wedding is gone. Engagement is off and his plans have changed. What a blog that will be! Needless to say, I'm still motivated. I just needed a jump start. WOOT! ... Read more
Twisted Motivation
Sunday, February 27, 2011 9 comments I know about goal-setting and motivation and all that. And I know I can be my own worst enemy and rationalize away the time and not start NOW and take steps toward my goals. That's exactly what I've been doing. Languishing. Not planning.... Read more

Changes, changes
Tuesday, December 01, 2009 12 comments Nothing stays the same so don't get too used to things. With planning, change is usually less unexpected, less shocking, more controlled. Easier to deal with. Usually. Sometimes, life throws you a curve and the best-laid plans go astray.... Read more
Spark-Sabbatical
Wednesday, October 28, 2009 10 comments I used to think I fly somewhat under the radar. Sometimes, I still believe that. I've been under pressure for a while, and things got overwhelming about the end of last month, beginning of this month and it so happened that the timing of t...
