Ending the Excuses for Struggling

April 26, 2010

Requesting that bloggers step up their game is a message that’s not always well-received. When people get defensive, they usually turn to a bunch of excuses. So let’s talk about those right from the get-go! “It may not be great but…” “Well yeah, I agree that it’s boring but…” “We all know it’s dumb but…” [...]

When I bought Core Fusion Pure Abs & Arms, I was happy that it came with a band for the exercises because I didn’t really want to buy extra equipment. After nearly a month of doing it, I have to say…I love the band! I have used resistance tubes before, and they are not my [...]

Don’t Pour That Sugar…

Good Sunday morning! Just a reminder that today is the last day for this week’s Outside the Box Challenge. Remember, this week’s challenge was to go an entire day without added sweeteners. We’re defining added sweetener as any form of concentrated sweetener, natural or not (this means maple syrup, agave, and honey are all no-nos!). [...]

Press Play: Getting You Higher

We’ve talked about mushrooms and herbs and pot and pills and hemp…what a long, strange theme week it’s been! And of course this week’s playlist has to reflect that! Well, thank goodness that whether it’s rappers waxing poetic about weed or pop stars talking about improving oneself, there are a lot of songs out there [...]

Friday Foodgasm: Laced Chocolate

April 23, 2010

Keeping with the idea of our theme week, let’s talk about hemp! Hemp as health food has become pretty trendy in the past couple years. And I’m sure all the people who have been getting called dirty hippies for the past decade are pissed that everyone’s getting on the bandwagon, but hemp is pretty healthy. [...]

On my walk yesterday I had a chance to catch up with my friend Heather. We’ve known each other since we were eight years old, but she is also a writer (check out her blog, Body FM) and a personal trainer and she always has tons of insightful things to say about women and health. [...]

Good Thursday evening! First off, I just wanted to say THANKS for the support on Gymnertainment this morning! For all you early adopters who were quick to download and have already hit them with “me,” I’m so pumped you did! So, this week, I’ve sort of been testing something out. This week I decided I [...]

Shed Kitchen: Truffle Popcorn

After talking about good munchie-induced snacks on Tuesday, I thought I’d share a new recipe that I think is a perfect way to crunch and munch — and it’s a way to get some more magic mushrooms up in the mix! So, on my shopping extravaganza last weekend I picked up some truffle oil. Truffles [...]

Why it Was Time for Hollaback

So, last night, I was thinking about the other blog I started, Hollaback Health, and what it means to me. I mean, thus far, I’ve sort of avoided saying, “This whole thing was my idea.” I’m more community focused and just interested in getting things done; I’m personally not going to gain anything by taking [...]

Introducing…GYMNERTAINMENT

Goooood morning! I could barely sleep last night because I’m very excited to launch my newest feature…Gymnertainment! What is Gymnertainment, besides a buzzword nearly as obnoxious as “Brangelina?” Well, I was going to describe Gymnertainment as a “love child” but it’s so much more than that. First, I think it’s more a bastard child than [...]
