January 1st, 2015
Happy everything. That is my wish for all of you for 2015. I like that word everything. Somehow it's more all-encompassing than the traditional Happy New Year greeting. To me, the luster of the concept of a “new year” begins to wane along about February first. Not my resolutions, mind you. I'm pretty . . . → Read More: Everything
December 19th, 2014 Over the course of my 60 plus years I must have gained and lost 20-30 pounds over and over. When I lost those pounds, I never stopped to think about where they went, I was just glad they were gone.
The other day Michael Wood tweeted out an article that piqued my curiosity about that . . . → Read More: Where Does the Fat Go?
November 14th, 2014 Very often I bring you things and people in this blog that have touched my life and inspired me to be better than I am today or to “go for it” and try to reach a goal. What I have for you today touches on something that means a lot to me and I . . . → Read More: When I Speak of Inspration
November 6th, 2014 20,000 steps yesterday! The 10,000 step challenge is over and my result astounds me. The day I started this challenge on October 1 I thought I was in pretty good shape averaging 7000-8000 steps a day. Turns out that is the average step count for most people and I set out increase my average . . . → Read More: Who Can Top Me?
November 4th, 2014 …and I don't have to leave the house. It's the second day “officially” of my new job. I am now the manager of the Mashpee Koko FitClub and I couldn't be more thankful to God or more excited about the new challenge. Last night when I locked the door and walked to my car, . . . → Read More: It’s 7 am…
October 18th, 2014 I spend a lot of time talking to my members at the Koko FitClub about their workouts, nutrition, and overall health. One day last week a member and I were having a cardio discussion – treadmill vs elliptical. We were talking about how the elliptical gives you a much more vigorous workout because it engages . . . → Read More: The Lazy Way Out
October 13th, 2014 I learned a lot in days 7-12. First, I learned I walk 11-12,000 steps a day without even being conscious of it. That's a good thing. I'd hate to think I have to worry about upping my steps forever. Second, I learned my added sugar intake runs around 22g a day and there is . . . → Read More: 10,000 Step Wellness Challenge – Days 7-12

October 7th, 2014 Day 6 was the best yet. I didn't even workout – it was my day in between strength workouts, but I didn't even make an effort to get in some cardio as I have the other days. Yesterday I had to be in Harwich from 8-3, stop in Dennis to see if the fit . . . → Read More: Day 6
October 5th, 2014 Day 4 was yesterday and I was a little bit concerned about getting 10,000 steps on a Saturday. Working only 3 hours and knowing I'd want that afternoon nap on a rainy day had me worried. I compensated by staying at work and doing two cardios and 20 min of yoga. Then I grabbed . . . → Read More: Days 4 & 5
