Posted on December 3, 2011 by FitYoginiRunner in Making it happen, Online resourcesShare I am participating in the Sisterhood of Shrinking Jeans’ 25 Days of Exercise challenge, on top of the Racing the Resolutions Challenge. (The only difference to me is doing a light workout on Sundays also, and adults don’t get advent calendars mostly, so why not?) We’re only on day 3, so I thought I’d [...]

Open Invitation: 90-Day Challenge Group Starting Nov. 7
Posted on October 24, 2011 by FitYoginiRunner in Coaching, Making it happen, Online resourcesShare When I look around, I see so many people around me who sacrifice their health ambitions – knowing that they are doing so – because living a healthy lifestyle is a genuine challenge.

Posted on July 5, 2011 by FitYoginiRunner in Eating healthy, My fitness journeyShare Lately, I’ve been noticing that some of my clothes fit tighter than they used to. The scale, even when considering the 3-pound effective uncertainty in day-to-day weight, also suggests I put on fat.

May Your Way Challenge
Posted on May 1, 2011 by FitYoginiRunner in My fitness journeyShare I noticed that the Sisterhood of the Shrinking Pants has a new fitness challenge up for May called May Your Way. Unlike most of their previous challenges, you don’t have to be looking to lose weight to participate, and you do it individually instead of as a team. That sounds much more interesting to [...]

Posted on December 29, 2010 by FitYoginiRunner in Eating healthy, My fitness journeyShare Body Fat Percentage Check-in: I am either at 20.7% or 18.6%, depending on whether I believe my scale or my hand-held body fat analyzer. The goal: 18%. I started at: 22.6% in September 2010 My “weight” goal is phrased in terms of body fat, since I’m actively also trying to build muscle. I don’t [...]

Posted on December 5, 2010 by FitYoginiRunner in Eating healthy, My fitness journeyShare The Chef has the honor of presenting the menu. The enter-all-recipes-into-The-Living-Cookbook project isn’t going so well, so calorie counts and macronutrient breakdowns are not yet available. But it is a plan – plan it and you do it, wing it and you won’t!
