What’s your biggest remaining challenge?
I’m staying at Le Royal Meridian hotel in Shanghai. I exercised (at the gym on the 10th floor of the hotel — the building on the right with two antennae) and then walked all over Shanghai.
And, I managed to eat fairly well today. But it was tough. I am tired and I miss my family. [...]

I was thinking I wouldn’t get much exercise today because we went on a river cruise, but we did do a fair bit of walking afterwards!
We are in Guilin, a charming city. A few too many tourists around for my taste, but heck, I’m one of them, so I can’t complain too much, [...]

I’m on one. To China. Right now.
I found more articles on how to exercise on planes than I expected. I started searching because I don’t want to break my exercise streak for the latest Elastic Waist fitness challenge. Because I’m just like that. (OK, my bronchitis broke my streak on Friday, but I’m back!)
Seems many [...]

I know I still owe you the final Influencer post, but I had to interject this one!
So, I’ve been telling anyone who will listen that I’ve made a big personal breakthrough: Exercising to lose weight sometime in the future? Yawn. That’ll last a few days. However, having a goal like riding my bike to work [...]

LifeRemix is a great private collection of blogs. I found these two gems there tonight while riding my @#$^^&*&#$%@% exercise bike at 11:10pm to meet my @#$@#^%@^@#% daily exercise commitment. (But I did feel great when I was done.)

First of all, let me laugh at the blog name Foodio54. Clever. I have some really great old music running through my head now. Perhaps I date myself. (OK, in the 70s I was like, ten, but still!)
Now, down to business. Mark Salinas stumbled my second Influencer post (thanks, Mark!). When I checked out his [...]

Well, down 3.9 more pounds for a total of 9.4 in two weeks!
-9.4 since starting Biggest Loser Blog Edition
-16.2 since starting blog
-33.2 from highest weight
It’s been downright enjoyable most of the time — definitely low stress. I credit the Lazy Waister’s Triathlon for getting me to exercise 1-1.5 hours per day, which virtually eliminated my [...]

One thing that is different for me this time is that I have put health and fitness at the top of my priority list, no excuses. In the past, it was what I tried to fit in after I took care of everything else — which mean it slipped off the list altogether before too [...]

It’s 10am and I had a rough morning. The whole family was crabby and difficult today. Impatience and miscommunication were rampant. And I didn’t handle it well. This was not one of my stellar Perfect Wife and Mother Moments.
I’m now home alone starting my work day, feeling kinda crappy.
So, how am I going to handle [...]
