Make Exercise a Priority

I don't find the time to exercise. I make the time to exercise.

The coolest thing happened today.  I went to Crossfit. “Hold up, Jen.  You go to Crossfit a lot.  Why is that such a big deal?!?” Great question.  I had planned NOT to go.  I actually had the perfect excuse…here’s the story… My Crossfit gym is about 20 minutes from my house.  I go to that [...]

Do you guys remember two years ago when I went on a cruise for Spring Break?  If you forgot, check out this post and then come back… Go ahead…I will Wait… I was out-of-control on the entire cruise.  I made bad choices and ate too much but I did have fun!  So, I asked myself, [...]

November 2012 Goals {Updated}

No Failing, No Blaming, No Excuses, November

I would not say that October was a fabulous weight loss month for me.  In fact, it wasn’t that great at all.  I did lose a little over 2 pounds for the month but it was not anywhere near the 8 pound loss I was hoping for.  Good thing it is November.  A new month [...]

Punkeelove Headbands – Review

Punkeelove Headbands Logo

Do you love workout bands as much as I do?  I not only love the way they look, but I love the functionally of them.  I really can’t workout without them.  The way my hair is cut, I have way too many fly-aways without a headband on. I recently found a headband company that I [...]
