Cold
Yesterday morning I woke up around 6. On weekends if I wake up before 7 I usually laze around in bed until 7ish and hope to catch a few more zzzzs. I felt really tired and hoped to fall back asleep. I figured I needed the rest. Plus every single morning I have something to [...]
Well, what a week … I knew this past week would pose some challenges in the caloric intake department with food and booze and also with my regular exercise routine. What I didn’t count on was getting sick … AGAIN. Tuesday morning when I woke up I was exhausted. And I slept decently. I felt [...]
As I have talked about before, my company has a Wellness Program. Throughout the year challenges are created for us. Some of Go Fit Girl!’s Monthly Challenges are inspired by my work challenges. Though I do try to add my own twist to them. One of the challenges right now is to Challenge a Friend. [...]

When I was sick over Christmas and New Year’s I pretty much quit caffeine for that two weeks. Once I started to feel better I figured I might as well keep the caffeine to the minimum. I decided to keep my weekend enjoyment of coffee. During the week I planned to have decaf tea and [...]
When I ended my cleanse a week ago I was a little worried that I would gain weight. Well, with food tasting so good. And I had some good meals the past week. Such as delicious welcome lunch on Tuesday at work; lasagna Curt got me at Market Hall the day I called in sick; [...]
Sunday, January 22 was the last day I had alcohol or caffeine … Between trying to not rely on caffeine, my cleanse and then getting sick I have been “substance” free. Until yesterday … I stayed home from work on Wednesday. After a long day of watching TV, movies, lounging, napping, drinking tea and water [...]
