Endeavoring To Pursue An Interest
Anyone who knows me knows that I am full of brilliant ideas. Well, I have a brilliant idea I’d like to share with you. I have two particular readers in mind. Just follow me. Andrea was recently inspired by my reflective post about my 2008 goals to write a goal-oriented post of her own (read this sentence very carefully – it really does make sense). Ali recently wrote a post of goals as well. One goal we all expressed an interest in pursuing is weight loss. I say an interest in pursuing because I don’t want to say a goal we will meet and conquer until we actually do it. At least if it is simply a goal we are interested in … Read entire article »

Gravity Lies
It’s been a frustrating summer. I haven’t really lost any weight. I’ve stuck around 170 pounds all summer. It’s frustrating in the sense that one of my plans for speedier climbing was to lose weight.

I must ride ten hours a week. I haven’t been doing that, but I’ve had good weight weeks when I hit at least eight hours. I haven’t ridden this week – my week starts on Monday – so I have some catching up to do. I’ve been splitting wood for the last … Read entire article »

Tea and Weight Loss
For many of us, spring is equated with weight loss. It is time to get rid of that winter weight, but how? In theory, it is an easy concept: burn more calories than you take in. Putting this into practice is a different story, however. Our metabolisms are as individual as we are. Our physical compositions – muscle versus fat, endocrine function, and sex are just a few of the many … Read entire article »
