Wedding rings at the gym?

Yesterday I dropped my wedding and engagement rings off to be cleaned and polished.  I do this about every 6 months because I’m not the most gentle person and tend to scratch up the platinum pretty bad.  Normally I drop them off and come pick them back up a couple of hours later.  But yesterdayContinue Reading

Midweek roundup – Food + fitness

This is what I spent my day looking at yesterday.  That, my friends, is my front room.  Where a window is supposed to go.  A few weeks ago, you’ll remember that I was also working from home, dealing with Home Depot and leaking windows. And they PROMISED me that they were fixing it.  But theyContinue Reading

25′s workout circuit

25′s workout circuit

Phew, it is finally Friday.  I don’t know about you but at least for Chris and I, Friday has taken forever to get here.  I swear I woke up Wednesday and Thursday thinking it was Friday.  Sheesh.  We both had super crazy weeks last week so maybe that’s why?  Regardless, glad it’s finally here. I’mContinue Reading

Whatever Makes You Feel Like A Rockstar

Yesterday was kind of rough as far as work-outs go.  Monday night Chris’ parents came in to town and had dinner with us and then we took them to the airport (side note, they’re off to hang for a month in Mexico.  No fair).  We got home late(r) but decided to stay up and watchContinue Reading

Can’t beat the classics

Well hello there and happy Saturday to you.  Did you know that here in Oregon we’re about 1/2 an inch away from beating the rainfall record for March in Portland?  No bueno.  I was hoping to actually get outside and do something active this weekend but that is not going to happen. So instead, we’reContinue Reading

Actually I want a gym

So I turn 30 at the end of April and made it my goal to weigh 128 pounds which is what I weighed when I was 20 and what I weighed at my wedding. I feel like if every time I hit a big milestone I weigh the same as the last then I’m doingContinue Reading

Hopefully I can walk tomorrow

I headed to the gym this morning dead set on kicking my own butt.  I’ve worked out every day this week but none of my workouts really felt like a killer.  I knew I wanted to do cardio and weights but that was about as much as I had planned out.  I got there andContinue Reading

Eight for ate

Today I ate eight servings of fruits and veggies. Well, technically 6 veggies and 2 fruit. This is a big deal. I try for at least 5 servings a day. Normally I can do 3-4, 5-6 on a good day. So when I counted everything up today I was pleasantly surprised. Here’s the breakdown: BreakfastContinue Reading

Shorts-weather legs

I got out of a meeting late today so had to miss pilates (sad).  But instead it gave me a chance to mix things up and do my own leg workout.  I love to workout my legs.  That’s what I would do every day if I could but my knees don’t really think that’s cool. Continue Reading
