More Than ZERO…

Quite honestly…this might be one of the most difficult blogs I’ve ever written to date. Not only have I not blogged in months, which is unfortunate, because it fills my bucket…but I also must share struggles. None of us likes to share those. Struggles indicate that we’re not perfect, and sometimes that’s a hard pill…

Embracing the Burn…

I must admit…I have been putting this blog entry off for quite some time now. Not because I don’t have anything to say or share. Not that I don’t care. It’s that so much has happened since my last entry, I don’t even know where to start! So, I’ll just cut right to it. The…

Week #3 – The Push

I can’t believe that I just completed week #3 of working out 5 days a week! This coming Monday is the beginning of week #4…the last week of THIS leg of the journey. I’ve consulted my coach to figure out what to do next…and together we’ve decided that I’m going to do 2 more weeks…

Sore Muscles & Such…

Today is the beginning of week #2 – Journey #2, and I feel amazing! I’m so glad that I started my journey off with an AdvoCare cleanse, because my cravings are already gone, and I feel so clear-headed, strong, and ready to take on these giant goals I’ve set for myself! I’m on day 7…

Journey #2

I know, I know…it’s been quite some time since I’ve blogged ((sigh)). Let me tell you why. I’ve been putting all my time and energy into coaching my team…which is good…but I kind of forgot about someone. Me. Not to sound selfish…or to make it seem like I’m asking for sympathy. Definitely not. This is…

Challenge YOUrself!

Feeling some mixed emotions on this blustery cold day. I’m frustrated with the fact that my activity is very limited post-surgery…but hopeful and excited as the AdvoCare 2017 ALL-IN challenge nears. I am more than ready to embark on my third 24 Day Challenge…and this one is even more special than most. Not only is…

Good EATs!

As if we are not all sick of food right now…post-Thanksgiving “yuck-syndrome” and all….here’s some more FOOOOOD for you!!! Ha!! Let’s just call these, “odd things to do to your Greek yogurt“…  I should warn you…although it certainly doesn’t happen to everyone…some people may experience some allergy symptoms from bee pollen. I had not consumed…

WHAT if..?

It’s true, 2016 is quickly coming to an end…but don’t close the door just yet! Too often we feel like it’s “too late” for change. We play games…”I’ll just wait until Monday to start my new healthy eating plan”. Why? As my fortune cookie recently told me, “Why put off for tomorrow what you can…

Take Care of YOUr Temple…

Don’t You know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who lives in you and was given to you by God?  1 Corinthians 6:19 NLT  I’ve lived more than half of my life not caring about my body. It’s truly sad when I think about it. My body was just something to make-up, dress…

BUMPS in YOUr Road…

Curveballs, set-backs…whatever you want to call them…we ALL experience some bumps in the road, and they all SUCK. You’re rolling right along, smiling and waving, enjoying life…when out of the blue…WHAM! Something hits you and knocks you into last week. Not next week…that would be progress…or forward momentum at least…but LAST WEEK. It’s been several…

Best Laid Plans…BUSTed

I was excited to go to AdvoCare Champions Day on Saturday, but I woke up so sick. If not for the light-headed dizzy weirdness I might have sucked it up and gone anyway. Yeah…so that was a BUST. I’m going to just keep on keepin’ on!!     I’ve decided there has to be a…

BLOW OUT the candles!

There were three frogs sitting on a log…one of them decided to jump off…how many frogs are still sitting on the log? The answer is three…because although one decided to jump, it doesn’t say that he actually jumped. A decision made does not an action make. Or something like that. Maybe you have heard that parable before…maybe not….
