How Well Do You Masticate?
SOME BENEFITS of MASTICATING PROPERLY ● It generates saliva. Saliva is allowed to break the food down so that you can absorb the nutrients. ● Salvia also helps kill potential food-borne bacteria. (Saliva in your mouth contains an enzyme called lysozyme which kills bacteria.) ● It increases the surface area of foods in your mouth to allow more efficient break down by enzymes while still in...
How I run this blog
I don’t reblog or display women with certain looking body parts. Rock hard abs, sexy legs, collar bones, butts, etc.
I am my own inspiration.
I have my own DNA that decides how I will look no matter how much weight is on my frame.
BE YOUR OWN INSPIRATION!

Cardio complete!
I only did 3 miles due to time restraint, but I made sure to alternate walking and jogging! Half the time the damn wind was against me, or was I running against the wind ;-)
I feel like I should do more with some resistance bands, but I’ll decide that once I get home.
I am proud of myself!
ericalseals asked: Hi! My name is Erica! I love your blog! I am also on a weight loss journey. I'm 5'3 and I started around 137lbs and I am currently at 125lbs. I am aiming for 110-115. Since the holidays it's been hard to stay on track so I'm looking for new inspiration. I was wondering if I could get the password to your pledgetoprogress blog?

38 degree Farenheit outside right now
This should be warm enough to go for a walk/jog right?
There is a track at the high school for easy counting of miles.
I was thinking, walk one then jog one. Alternate them. It’s the best way from my brain to keep track of which one is next ;-)
Now all I need is the right amount of motivation…

Tomorrow's dilemma
As I am back at home and don’t have access to my parent’s downstairs gym anymore, I feel a slight sense of panic about how I’m going to keep up a constant workout regiment. I live two blocks from a local gym, but would obviously have to pay members fees. I have very limited workout equipment at home and low key workout DVDs.
I know it’s not a big deal and as long as I...
does anyone know a healthy soft pretzel recipe...
to-be-healthy-and-fit:
like buckwheat, almond, oat bran, coconut? anything? I’ll love you forever if you can help!
Oooh, trying new things! Let’s help her along! Anyone have a good recipe?
On a happier note...
thehealthyalmond:
I bought a grapefruit today, but I have never tried it when should I eat it? I heard it’s good when you eat bad things and I though that should be nice for new year’s eve since everyone brings kinda fatty dishes, but should I eat before or after the dinner? Also I was thinking of running in the morning is grapefruit good to have before a run?
Share your insight with this...
Mediterranean food?
finding—me:
What’s some healthy Mediterranean food I can get when I go to dinner tonight? Going with my boyfriends family, but I like don’t even know what Mediterranean food is! Haha help!
The lady needs assistance…FAST!
Okay, Ashley and I have now decided what to do for...
It’s not much, but it’s time spent with my bestie and that’s what matters most. SANS BABIES. Head out to dinner at Paco’s Sol Bistro. They serve veggie dishes and that makes me happy!
Then walk over to the Avon Theatre and enjoy a One Night Showing ONLY of Phantom of the Opera(squeak).
Then, like the old ladies we are, call it a night LOL
I would have liked to go...
Oh green tea...
How I have missed you so!
Okay, so far I've had...
Cranberry, almond and walnut granola and two huge mugs of green tea and honey.
Now we’ll have a 2 1/2 hour drive home. I hope I can handle the drive and my hunger until then!
Ah another well rounded workout
Again, how is everyone today?

20 Secrets of Very Fit People
Keep a water bottle with you at all times and drink from it often. Water should always be your drink of choice. To kick things up every once in a while, try adding lemon, lime, cucumber, or a few berries to liven up the flavor without adding significant calories.
Look at exercise as a pleasure and a privilege, not a burden or chore. Think...
LAST CHANCE WORKOUT!!!
LOL well at the parents house that is. Gonna give one last effort while I’m here. Then when I get back home I’ll do what I can with what I’ve got.
