What is the difference between a dream and a goal. I have always been told the difference is a deadline and taking action. I have many dreams and many goals. Many times my dreams turn into my goals, but dreams can’t become goals until I am ready to take action. I have found if I […]
Hidden Sugars in Food
Published in March 29th, 2008
So just how many different types of sugar are there? How come when we read labels it is not clear?
It really pisses me off that companies try to sneak sugar into foods leading us to believe we are eating a sugar-free food.
I found all the different hidden sugars I could find. If you are like […]
My Dream Body
Published in March 28th, 2008
When I started losing weight I didn’t have a clear idea of what I wanted to achieve. I knew I didn’t want to be fat. That was a definite, but I wasn’t sure what I desired to look like when I finished sculpting my body. I don’t think I had the ability at that point […]

I haven’t been posting photos as often as I usually do because I have been super busy, so I decided to do it today. To make it easier, I put the pictures side-by-side. I think I can see a difference in my face, neck, chest and sides. You can take a look and decide for […]
People Just Need Something To Bitch About
Published in March 26th, 2008
There are some people who just have to find something to bitch about no matter what. They are the type that if they won the lottery, they would bitch about paying taxes. These people drive me nuts. The gym I workout at is getting a ton of new equipment. The place is a mess right […]
10K is Almost Here
Published in March 25th, 2008
I am running a 10k race on Saturday morning. This will be my first race and I am super excited. I think I kinda screwed up though. I started training a lot harder in the gym this week, so my body is super sore. I am going to lay off for the next few days […]
Getting Through The Holidays Without Cheating
Published in March 24th, 2008
Well, Easter was here. This usually means I cook a huge pan of lasagna with meatballs and sausage, buttered garlic bread and lots of desserts. It also meant that I would stuff myself until I couldn’t get off my chair, literally. This would usually lead to a downhills spiral that would lead to the end […]
Having a Workout Partner Makes All The Difference
Published in March 23rd, 2008
There are many days where I hop out of bed ready to head to the gym, then there are other days where I just want to put the blankets over my head and forget working out. I seem to go through waves of motivation followed by a wave or two of laziness. There are just […]
How your perspective changes as you lose weight
Published in March 20th, 2008
As I took off my clothes to get in the shower this morning I got a glimpse of my butt in the mirror. It seemed bigger than Texas. The sad thing is a year ago I would have thought differently. I am sure my butt was much, much bigger then. I guess I am getting […]
Counting Calories
Published in March 18th, 2008
When I first started this journey I didn’t really need to count calories. I knew I was cutting back on the amount of food I would eating and I only ate healthy foods. It was a no brainer. Well, I am in a different realm now. I have found that counting calories is essential as […]
