My third day of Jillian Michaels – 30 Day Shred was painful, once again. But I made it through more push ups than the prior two days, hurrah! Progress! My calves are KILLING me. They’re SO sore. Anyone else experience this? Tonight’s dinner was fabulous as well. I got all three recipes off of skinny taste, a [...]


Day Two: Ouch!

So, I didn’t want to, sitting like a loaf, a very sore loaf, on the couch. But I did it. I guess that’s how I’ll have to make it through my thirty days of Jillian Michaels – 30 Day Shred. Taking it one day at a time. Every time I force myself to work out, when [...]

Hello lovelies. Today I started my first day of Jillian Michaels – 30 Day Shred. Boo flippin’ ya baby. It was tough. I’m not going to lie. I don’t care what day it is. At one point I was close to puking, which is a little pathetic yes, and could be attributed to the fact that [...]

So, as you know, this site is about more than just food and weight loss. It’s about overall change for the better, and getting to like myself more. It’s about becoming un-frumpified in all aspects of my life. A while back, I planned on dedicating 30 days to testing out Jillian Michaels – 30 Day Shred, [...]


It’s about to get heavy up in here . . . and I’m not talking about the scale!

So, when I started this journey I initially just considered the, roughly, 110 pounds I wanted/needed to lose. As I began my weight loss leg of the journey, I got infused with the feeling of satisfaction self improvement brings. I decided, there is so much more I want to improve about my life. If I [...]


A New Day, A New Commitment! Another step closer to UN-FRUMPY!

5th June 2011 | 0 Comments

Hello all you beautiful people! And YOU ARE beautiful. So, lately there’s been a whole lot of what I’m eating on here, but not a lot else about other tools I’m using on my journey. Today, that is changing. I’ve had a book ever since my wedding that I’ve picked up, about once a year, [...]

I’m going to do the stuffed tomatoes tomorrow night. I didn’t want two italian-ish dishes two nights in a row. SO, I made up a slow cooker recipe that I will post tonight. I’m calling it, Mexican Slow Cooker Chicken. It smells good so far, hopefully it will taste good. I had some things that [...]

I FINALLY was able to exercise again today and not die coughing. I only did the Wii Fit Free Step for 30 minutes, but it felt good. I also weighed in…GOOD NEWS! I’ve lost 3 more pounds, shockingly. That’s 10.2 altogether since starting my journey to un-frumpiness! I have a long way to go, but [...]

So, it turns out I’m not as well yet as I thought. Just being on my feet and walking around for several hours yesterday had me coughing up a storm again. So, I’m going to postpone my Shred commitment for a few more days, but NOT give up on it. Some good news, yesterday I [...]


A Commitment To You

So, March is about to begin. Where does time go? In a few days, my baby will be 5 months old already. How did that happen? It goes by way, way too fast. Anyway, five months is way too long to still be using the, “I just had a baby,” excuse, in my book. So, [...]
