Watched “Beyond the Edge” with Lauren Alaina. She is just the cutest, but has had her own body issues. At the end of whatever day they were on she said she was proud of what her body accomplished, even though she was tired and hungry. I think we sometimes forget that our bodies are amazing. We may be on a journey to make them more healthy and…[Read more]

Feeling a little frustrated, but sticking with workouts, nutrition, and natural sugar (in food). I have drank 75 oz. of water per day for the last couple of years. Still working up to a gallon…some days I get it in…other days not so much. Still working on 100 squats per day. I can do 100 squats, just struggling to fit them in every day.…[Read more]

Been a few days since I have visited this site, but have kept up with workouts and nutrition. Made the 10 day sugar detox. My son and his family were here for dinner on Sunday. Had a small slice of light cheesecake for dessert, but other than that I’m still living sugar free other than natural sugars found in foods. Hope you all are feeling great!

Still no saddle time. Weather has been uncooperative…rain, snow, wind. Welcome to Spring in Utah.

12 days…low to no sugar. So far…so good. Enjoy your weekend!

Cardio and leg days always seem to take more out of me. I feel like I need to eat more, but that makes it hard to stay within my calorie goals. More protein or more carbs? Or both?

Working to get the “guns” in Spring/Summer shape. Adding this 5 minute workout 2-3 times a day. https://pin.it/7zUi4mO

Continuing with low to no sugar, tracking nutrition, and daily exercise. Hoping to ride my horse this weekend. Hope you all have had a great week. Happy Friday!

Yesterday…cardio workout. Feelin’ the burpees and mountain climbers today! Today…combo upper and lower body workout. Getting my squats in as well and this 5 minute arm workout. I do this 2 or 3 times a day. https://pin.it/7zUi4mO

Just a reminder…Rome wasn’t built in a day. We are a work in progress and as long as we keep trying we are making progress!

I did it!!! 10 days without sugar or sweetener of any kind. No refined flours. No dried fruits. And no sugary beverages. Sugar is my addiction, so I will keep going, other than an occasional treat. Congratulations to all of you who also made it or are still working on it.

Leg day…again. Feeling it, but loving it!

Continuing to track nutrition. Had pizza over the weekend. I think for the first time in history I stuck to one slice and then filled up on veggies. Had corned beef and smoked cabbage with potatoes and green beans cooked in avocado oil on Sunday. Weighed and measured everything. Kept me within my allotted calories, as well as under the…[Read more]

Another workout in the books. Increased weight on last set of each exercise. Will walk the pasture with my horse during lunch…before sitting behind a computer for the rest of the afternoon. Then chores and walking dogs tonight. Happy Tuesday!

Horses got new shoes yesterday…YAYYY!!! Looking forward to riding again. Hopefully, the weather will cooperate soon. 🙂

Almost through the 10 day sugar detox. Still going strong. Amazing how reducing sugar intake has decreased inflammation in my joints. I think I’ll continue even after the 10 days. Up to 75 squats per day (25 reps at a time :)) …on top of any that are included in my regular workouts. Continuing to track nutrition as well. Feeling great!
