Just finished listening to the book “Eat Smarter” for the second time. Great information.

Just a few more days until the end of the challenge. How is everyone doing? I have stuck to working out 4-6 days per week, but I have been horrible about tracking my food and making good nutrition choices. Hope you all are doing great!.

Still hanging in there with this challenge. I love working out in the morning before going outside to take care of animals…and with the colder temperatures I’m gets me nice and warmed up. Hope you are staying warm and healthy!

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]

I haven’t been quite as active on the website with this 12 week challenge, but I’m still working out 5-6 days a week and still working towards healthier eating habits. The holidays are coming and I will need all the help I can get. Foodie struggles… 😀

Is there going to be a new riding or workout challenge this month? I didn’t miss it did I?

Listened to a great podcast this morning by JJ Virgin called “Feel Great and Lose Weight After Menopause”. Only 17 minutes but full of great information. Her podcast is Ask the Health Expert. I found it on Apple podcasts, but she can also be found on other social media. Enjoy!

Haven’t made very good food choices lately and my brain and joints certainly can tell. It’s amazing how food choices affect everything. Back to better food choices!

Thankful for the new weekly meal and workout plans. Happy October!

Looking forward to the October challenge and some new recipes and ideas.

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

Welcome everyone! Hope you all are enjoying this new challenge. I don’t know about you, but the “…ber” months, September, October, November, and December, are soooo tough for me because I love all the yummy comfort food. But…this challenge will definitely help me think twice about what I eat and I feel so much better. What about you? Do…[Read more]

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]

I love DST and I’ve been able to ride several times a week. I’m rehabbing my horse from some lameness issues and getting myself going again after fracturing a vertebrae last fall. Riding is just good medicine!

Weather has really put the skids on my riding. Well…that and my husbands work schedule. If the wind is blowing like it has been (and will be again today) it’s just not safe to ride with no one around. We will get to a point where it won’t matter, but until then…sigh. Hoping you all are getting in some good time with your equine partners.

Feeling my age a bit today. Joints are a bit sore. Don’t know if it’s the incoming storms or just doing more with the warmer weather. I’m a firm believer that exercise keeps the joints lubricated, but some days they (my joints) disagree. It’s all good, though. I still got up and worked out and will walk the dogs and horse this afternoon, as…[Read more]
