FitFluential will you have me?

June 1, 2011 By Leave a Comment

Trouble catching your breath when walking up stairs?

Have trouble fitting in a restaurant booth?

Frustrated with clothes not fitting anymore?

No energy to spare?

Does any of this sound familiar to you? It does to me because I have personally been there and I’m still working daily at living a healthier lifestyle struggles and all.  It was 2005 that I decided to start my journey to healthy living and although it hasn’t been easy, I have not given up. I know it’s possible to hit my goals because I have done it before.

I know that through my personal experience I have been able to help “educate, motivate and inspire” others.  When I heard Kelly say that quote in one of her recent videos, I knew I was meant to make a positive impact in the FitFluential community in some way, shape or form.  So I’m here to explain why I would be a great choice to be part of the FitFluential team.

Finish What You Start

Persistence

Home this week from the gym and other works because I have pulled a muscle somewhere across the chest area (can’t remember what hubby called it) and it’s painful.  Had to change my ONE personal training sesh this week to next week.  Was really hoping to get there today but it just wasn’t happening.  Doesn’t look like I’ll get my FitBlogger goal in either. Boo!  So to get over feeling down for not being able to workout and learn how to give in and let myself heal, I was reading about the 400 pound man who completed the L.A. marathon last weekend.  I’m sure you have heard of him right?

Dinner. Delish

February 24, 2011 By 4 Comments

We had the most delicious dinner tonight, I just had to write about it!  Kev just threw it together…aren’t those the best kinds?

In the first picture (don’t mind me I had already started eating ha ha), you’ll see a small piece of cheesy biscuit bread (not too healthy but oh so good lol), Trader Joe’s frozen Quinoa Duo with vegetable melange and Trader Joe’s frozen Eggplant Cutlets with Hunt’s diced sweet onion tomatoes  and a sprinkle of mozzarella cheese on top.  The shredded mozzarella cheese we bought from Whole Foods is the freshest I have ever had.

Then comes the bowl of soup.  This was to die for and I must have it again!  Mushrooms, red peppers, leek, bok choy, Swanson’s vegetarian broth and a little ground black pepper and garlic.  So simple, yet so good.

9 Quirky Things About Me

February 16, 2011 By 18 Comments

OK so this little Meme is something a few of us are doing from one of the business groups I’m part of and I thought I would let you get to know me on a much deeper level LOL  Missy over at G34 Media will link to everyone who participates.  So here we go….

9 Quirky Things About Me

1) Toilet paper must be over not under and I have been known to change it in other peoples homes shhh

2) I don’t like the feel of a Koosh ball (remember those?)

3) Fire scares me

4) I do not like the feel of sand (except for the beach in Jamaica)

5) The blower from the furnace must be on or I cannot sleep

6) I love the smell of gasoline

7) In public restrooms I don’t like touching door handles so I use either a paper towel or clothing to open them

8 ) I don’t cook but I like to bake.

9) Not really a quirk but hubby and I have been married 14 years & have celebrated every New Year’s Eve anniversary at BeniHana (except for one we celebrated early because we went to Jamaica)

So there you have it, a few quirky things about me.  If you so desire to participate, feel free to blog about your quirks and come back here to comment and/or link back to this post.
