The holidays are a hard time for all of us to stay on track. Check in with Kathleen as she tackles Christmas with her new lifestyle… Twas the week before Christmas (at least when I wrote this it was)… and yup, the Christmas season has arrived in full force. Work parties, family events, get togethers…
Two thirds of the way there and Kathleen is still going strong. This week she wraps up with Maisie for nutrition and realizes that life isn’t always perfect and according to plan. What do you do when your plan gets derailed? I can’t believe that I’m heading into the last 4 weeks of this program.…
This week’s post is a little different from my usual weekly write-ups. While out on our Saturday run Alicia declared that I am officially a runner. Curious as to what makes someone a “runner”? So was I. So have no fear, we came up with a top-ten style list. On that note I present to…
Comfort zone? What comfort zone? Half way through her 12 week program and Kathleen continues to redefine her comfort zone and she gets welcomed into a pretty exclusive club… After my mini rant/breakdown last week I gave myself a few hours to complain and be upset. I vented, I cried, I rechecked the scale. And…
Week 5 brought some new challenges that Kathleen wasn’t expecting, as life often does… How do you deal with challenges and obstacles in your life? It’s a common misconception that when things are going great- they’re going to continue on that trend. When you’re chugging along, picking up steam and liking the results why WOULDN’T…
Kathleen faces down measurement week and continues to discover all of the different ways to measure progress. Ahh, measurement week… A necessary but nerve wracking event. I knew I had been working hard the last few weeks, but there’s nothing worse than psyching yourself up for disappointment. The good news? I was anything BUT disappointed.…
Kathleen takes on week 3 and several fears. Has fear every held you back from accomplishing or even attempting to accomplish your goals? I’m just going to put this out there: I seriously kicked my own ass this week. I pushed myself harder than I ever have before. I tried new things, I stopped saying…
Kathleen takes on week 2 and realizes the importance of recognizing every small change as a victory… I feel that like many people, my life revolves around waiting for big things to happen. In my mind, change can only be seen in very obvious ways. In weight loss, this usually equals dramatic drops on the…
Kathleen has apparently survived week 1 because she sent me a write up! The outpouring of support after her initial post was inspiring and we can’t wait to see what the next few weeks bring. When I first agreed to do this, it seemed easy enough: train hard, eat well, write about it. But…
Our next Rockstar has started on her journey and is excited to share it with you. Meet Kathleen. She has been working with us for awhile and has been a star student so we have selected her to be our next Rockstar and help her continue on her quest for health. If my life was…
