I Straight Up Stole This Off the SP Home Page
“The will to win is important…” This part of the quote actually hit me harder than the punchline, today. Wait, do inspirational quotes have punchlines? What do they call the cincher? The will to win is important. I am sitting at my computer @ 4:45 am after catching a 3 am train home with Joshua and we are beat. worn the eff out. stopped and had a slice (one) of Bro’s...

Summer Commitment & Self-Motivation via Runnin My...
“Be miserable. Or motivate yourself. Whatever has to be done, it’s always your choice.” ~Wayne Dyer I’m not very happy with the way I look. So I can be miserable, or I can motivate myself. Which sounds more likely to result in good days? I want good days, not sad lonely depressed days. So I motivate myself. And I have to do it absolutely constantly, because I start...

Motivation for this Week is REALLY BIG
cause i’m doing this on Wednesday with a ton of friends and I don’t want to gain a single oz between then and now. No more snacking on carbs! It would be nice to maybe even lose a pound before then, just for confidence purposes.

Unstoppable Food
When I eat strawberries, or dishes like my favorite snack, plum tomatos and cottage cheese, or ricotta in a pita with rosemary, I feel like my system is running on clean good fuel and I can do no wrong. What power foods make you feel super healthy, are yummy, and leave you feeling stronger?

Comfort Food
Some people turn to their comfort food when they are sad, emotionally distressed, grieving, depressed, under incredible stress, feeling pressure… Well, I eat when I am lonely. And my comfort foods are pure crap. When I’m alone, and writing, I need to snack and snack fast. Im talking food inhalation!. If they had a honey roasted peanut flavored asthma inhaler, I’d be all over...

Last year is now this year
Last year I bought a ton of cute cheap outfits online and disappointingly, almost every single one fit badly or was just too small. I’m spending the day digging out everything, most of which still has tags on, and trying them on. I’m bagging up everything that is more than one size too big and have al;ready dropped off a couple bags at the church near my block. I’m going back...

Summer's Here - baarely fitness related life stuff...
^ my beach outfit for tomorrow! woohoo! So, Mr. Fate called me that same night that I saw him during sexy breakfast last thursday. He came over that night and we had the perfect date. On our second date, Friday night, he showed up drunk and I found out he was a homophobic, racist with control issues that loved to insult my friends, hospitality and job. I finally got him to stop coming over and...

Letter to my AB! Team & everyone, Re: the...
EDIT: This blog is not about any drama that happened, this is about me hoping to make it a little easier to let go of old painful pasts and realise that you are here today, without that all hanging over your heads. Most of the people that I know on this site are 30 and older with about 2 handfuls of exceptions. This means that we spent about 4 years in highschool about 10 to 15 years ago,...

NYO told me to just write about it
Today I feel like diving off a cliff into the Grand Canyon. I’m tired. I am so so so tired. I know whine whine whine I’m a pathetic and ungrateful little genX monster. I think my camera broke, and I feel like Im naked and helpless and vulnerable and rejected. And it’s not like I can just go get it fixed, it would probably cost the amount of a point and shoot camera just to have...

OK YALL ASKED FOR IT...
…NOW USE IT. Just for today: Stand up straighter. Walk taller. (yeah even you teeny things hovering around 5 ft nothing) Flex your legs and butt muscles when you walk. Put some swing in it. Adopt a new mantra. Look up mantra on wikipedia and learn how to create your own! Find your own anthem. Blast it loud and celebrate freedom from guilt and remorse in the middle of your...

If I can sabotage, then I can retaliate.
I get lazy. Even when my motivation is all coming together in some Cat 5, Gulf-Sized monster of a storm, if I can’t make it rain one drop, then I’m all bark, and no bite. Ha. How’s that for a ton of opening analogies. My motivation is raring and ready to go. My body…? My body is like: I’m on my period and I don’t have to do anything My back hurts ...

Coney Island Opening Day
This weekend, I think I drank 4000 calories. It is mostly the fault of all the bodegas for having 32 ozs of anything by Arizona for only 99 cents when it is 110 degrees outside. These are Opening Day pics: (it was beautiful, and I went to the beach alone, spread out my blanket, stripped down to my fluffy lumpy self, in bikini top and cutoffs, and tanned all by my lonesome and not giving a crap...
