Real Nutrition. Real Simple.
Last week in Slow Carb Diet Week Four I was pretty frustrated. So I made a lot of changes this week to try to get the scale to move, hoping to capitalize on the idea that 4HB kicks in more for women during weeks 5 and 6. I added fiber, cinnamon and Yerba Mate. I [...]

This week was full of ups and downs. I put on 2.5 pounds from my cheat day on Saturday and by Wednesday I had not lost it like I was expecting. I was less than pleased. Normally I don’t have this mentality about weight loss. I always preach slow & steady loss. But, I’m under [...]

Well this was an interesting week. I didn’t think it would be that hard to make meals without rice, pasta or potatoes. Boy was I wrong. I didn’t properly plan meals for the week and ended up eating some rather unappetizing meals where I added beans without much thought to the end result. I also [...]

Today was my final fit test to complete the Insanity workout. At this point I care less about the numbers on the fit test than I do about the fact that I did it. I completed Insanity! But, since I did the fit test, here are my numbers: Switch Kicks: 70 90106 Power Jacks: 38 [...]

I didn’t weigh in last week since it was my recovery week and because I had gained a few pounds after eating some deep fried goodness. At the end of week 4 I weighed in at 140 pounds. For the two weeks following that I weighed between 140 and 144. I’ve been back to daily [...]

I’m done with my first month of Insanity and heading into my recovery week. I’m also heading home to see my parents for a few days which usually means eating too much and enjoying some adult beverages. However, I’m becoming acutely aware of how just one or two days of not being vigilant can affect [...]

Magic happened this week. The extra 4 pounds that I’ve been carrying around melted off over a couple of days and I actually weighed in at 138 pounds! So, not only did I drop the extra weight I mysteriously put on but I also lost more so I’m back on target with a pound a [...]

I’ve had a frustrating week regarding weight. Last Saturday I weighed in below 140 pounds for the first time since my freshman year of college which was 13 years ago. I was ecstatic to see 139 on the sale. Unfortunately that night I had dinner out and definitely overdid it. But, while I overdid it [...]
