Day 1

October 8, 2012

It has begun!!! Below is my (sorry! So so long!) video of my Day 1 experience. It’s a little long because… I have a lot of thoughts and feelings. Hilariously, Teresa makes a HeyTell appearance in the video. She was HeyTelling me to complain about how disgusting the Alkalinize is. So for some reason, I’m [...]

Can you detox while intuitive eating?

October 6, 2012

Morning Fitties! What a week. What. A. Week. Don’t ask. It’s over and that’s all that matters. In positive news, my ipod that mysteriously refused to turn on miraculously turned on. In worse news, my engine may be shitting the bed. Not sure yet. The family mechanic (true story, he was a mechanic before he [...]

Dohhh.

October 5, 2012

Thanks for your kind comments on my post t’other day my Fitties. I got some internet high fives for putting out there what a lot of other instructors think — we don’t need to have this silly drama about something like Zumba. Or as one of my teacher friends put it, if everyone stopped worrying [...]

Remember, it’s supposed to be fun.

October 3, 2012

This blog post had a lot of potential titles. One was Be Nice or Else, which is taken from this book by Winn Claybaugh, the motivational speaker for the 2010 Camp Do More hosted by Chalene Johnson.

Melody Monday

October 1, 2012

Via my Fitness Bestie, a little meme… a song to get your week going. In my defense, I did not realize this song was a Beebs song. I just love it. Plus, it’s got Michael Madsen in the vid so… you know. Sonny Black/Mr. Blond is pretty tight. Post your Monday Melody in the comments!

I can’t believe I’m doing this…

September 30, 2012

No sugar, no coffee no booze… 21 days. I’m usually deeply skeptical of detoxes (mainly because I can’t be bothered to deny myself any of the above for any length of time) but I can’t deny being intrigued when some of my fellow instructors did the Ultimate Reset. I’m in. All the way. They look [...]

Work.

September 26, 2012

Hey Fitties! OMG I’m having the BEST day! And you probably are too because I heard Billie Jean on the radio before I got to work, and when that happens I have the best day and I’m PRETTY SURE that carries over onto all the people I know and if you’re reading this I know [...]

Whatcha wanna do?

September 21, 2012

Hey Fities! I’m back! And I’m finally off West Coast time. Sheesh. I don’t think I was on West Coast time while I was ON the West Coast… But I hit New England soil and suddenly my bedtime was 3 am. Not good. So now that my sleeping/pooping schedule is back on track, here I [...]
