Momentum is a cruel mistress.

Get up, get moving. No excuses.

Thanks for the amazing amount of veiws. I have written some words and posted my favorite comments from the last two years her: http://evenodegard.com/blog/ri...

Kick off Christmas by burning some calories!

I already started the day with a hard core hour of Zumba, because there are cookies in my future.

Remember - it doesn't matter what you look like - as long as you're being active!

AWESOME INFORMATION:

For those of you who, like me, may be fighting both weight gain AND a genetic predisposition to diabetes, this book is a wonderful resource.

My doctor instructed me to buy it and immediately employ it in my life.

Results?

After the first two weeks, I felt amazing! Even other people noticed I had more energy, and I got to the point where I wasn't even flooding my body with caffeine.

My favorite thing is the doctor isn't trying to "sell" shakes or stupid patches. Just sensible and healthy eating, to develop real, long term health.

Check it out!

Written by Dr. Weiner to help patients change their eating sensibly, over time. First, Dr. Weiner explains the flaws in the traditional weight loss model that claims that it is necessary to starve …

Physical fitness is important, but so is mental fitness.

Any time you start feeling a little stressted, take two minutes to stop, focus on your breath, and clear your mind.

MOTIVATION MONDAY:

Do you ever wake up and just KNOW you're going to have a fat day??

You know - one of those days where you feel fat and gross all day long, no matter how much work you've done to get healthy?

Well, I don't know about you, but when I have one of those days, it helps to see how far I've come.

Yes - those are my REAL fat pants - size 32, if you can believe it?!?!?

Now, I fit in one leg - it's like I lost a whole person, and THAT motivates me when nothing else does.

How do YOU get motivated?

REALITY CHECK:

You and I both know - getting up, dressed, & out the door at 6am (or 7am, or 8am, or...) is hard - especially when bed is soooo comfy!

PLUS... I don't know about you, but the LAST thing I want to deal with that early (or ever) is some perfectly fit, perpetually perky, spandex wearing fitness model yelling at me in a big room under fluorescent lights while I try in vain to keep up with her choreographed routine without falling flat on my face.

Blech!

Thankfully, we real women have options.

I just finished this awesome Real Woman Workout in the comfort of my own living room, and I definitely burned calories.

Check it out - No gym, spandex, or perkiness required!!

30 minutes of some beginner level dance workout routines. More videos on my website: http://dancevideos.shelly-stone.com/

Wednesday Workout Tip:

Don't have a gym membership? No problem!!

For a core strength workout, you don't need a lot of space or fancy equipment. Wherever you have room to lay down, just hold plank pose as long as possible.

When you're done, make sure you rest in child pose - it feels great!

DAILY DANCE BREAK!

Afternoon slump? Don't reach for caffeine and sugar!

Stop what you're doing and shake your groove thang!!
