We are going to Disneyland in January with our daughters family. We went 5 years ago and after the 2nd day I had horrible shin splints and zero energy. Hoping this trip will be much better.

After Covid I found it a little hard to get back into my workout routine. Last week I only got 2 workouts in…lack of energy. This week I’m doing better. I feel so much better if I workout in the morning…I have more energy, less brain fog, and I feel like I’m more organized.

With the holidays coming I’m hoping to use some healthier options for everything. Ideas?

Well…I survived Covid. I didn’t workout for a week, but it feels like much longer. Started working out again on Monday. Going slow because I still have some lingering congestion and I don’t want to overdue it and get sick again. Hope you all are healthy and happy!

Hoping to get a walk in tonight with my boy. Shorter days leave me less time to get these walks in, but I’m sure going to milk DST for all I can before we “fall back”. My weekdays are pretty busy from my 4:30 a.m. workout to 8 hours in the office, and then chore time, so meal prepping on the weekends sure helps me out timewise. It’s so nice to…[Read more]

This entire year has been challenging when it comes to riding. Too cold. Too hot. Too windy. I have ended up just walking with the big guy for exercise. It doesn’t help that he can’t do more than just walk him so I justify “just walking” rather than putting a saddle on him and getting on. We enjoy the walk, but I know he would rather be able…[Read more]

Found an easy chia pudding recipe that I’m planning to try. Also trying to add more veggies into my meals by adding spinach and/or frozen veggies to soups and other dishes. I have added spinach to spaghetti and chili. Doesn’t really add flavor, but does give it a healthy punch. I’ll update on the chia pudding next time.

Started the Strong & Solid workout on Beachbody on Demand. I’m only in the first week. I mostly like the workouts, but there is a lot of jumping, which isn’t great for my old goat tyer knees, but I just make modifications. Stay tuned.

Right now my motivation is to feel better!

Not really a recipe just a lunch idea…todays lunch was a baked potato topped with cottage cheese and steamed broccoli. Love this as the weather cools off.

Got up a little late so I just did a 20 minute Fitbit workout. It was ok. And I walked the dogs. Happy Monday!

Premier Protein has a new flavor…birthday cake. Since it’s my birthday month I decided to try it. It’s ok but tastes a lot like vanilla sooo…I added half of a banana 🍌 and a couple handfuls of spinach. Yummy and filling lunch. Next time I’ll add some frozen mixed berries. 😋

Walk with Scooter yesterday. Now that the weather has cooled off I’m looking forward to working with him more before winter sets in.

Did a barre workout yesterday. Really challenged my balance. I think I’ll do it again to help with that problem. Did a Fitbit MMA workout this morning. Even though it was a little hard to catch onto its the first Fitbit workout I’ve actually enjoyed and I will definitely do it again.

Monday and Wednesday did a couple of Fitbit workouts. Not my favorite. Tuesday I just walked the dogs. Today I did an old school Billy Blanks workout. Still one of my favorites. My favorite DVD workouts are worn out and won’t play. 🙁 Struggling with my workouts because I can’t find any that I like. I don’t have a home gym…just some…[Read more]

Hi ladies! I hope everyone is doing well

Well…we are still hotter than blazes here in Utah. I took this week off of work while my husband is at the ranch in NM and was hoping to get a few rides in, but things just haven’t worked out. However, it’s only Thursday, so hopefully, I can get a ride in tomorrow or Saturday morning. I would this morning, but I have to take my disabled kitty…[Read more]

From Fitbit, “…you recently went above and beyond with activity. Now, your body might need rest. For active recovery try light walks, stretches, or restorative yoga.” Sooo…this morning I walked and fed the dogs, fed the barn cats, fed and watered horses, cleaned stalls, groomed one dog (75 pound Border Collie that hates to be groomed), and…[Read more]
