You’ll never believe my latest obsession

February 24, 2016

McDonalds! Yes, you read that correctly. This exercise and healthy eating obsessed person has come to love McDonalds. Ever since there has a been a McDonalds in my home town, I vowed never to set foot in it. After all, this company is the original creator of fast food. Can we say poison and obesity? […]

The joy of tea

February 17, 2016

I love caffeine. When one gets up at 4 am (!) to work out, one needs something more than just a will to get moving. I am getting more and more serious about healthy eating too, but even when I did the Ultimate Yogi 108 Day Challenge, I couldn’t give up caffeine. Come to think […]

It just takes a little bit

February 3, 2016

So I woke up this morning, feeling tired and little bit under the weather. The thought of exercise was the last thing on my mind. But, a little bit of guilt took over. So I decided to pull out a Leslie Sansone Walking DVD to do. This is an easy walking workout and it only […]

My latest obsession – Fitbit

January 13, 2016

My favorite Christmas present was a Fitbit. I got the simplest model, the Fitbit Zip, but it suits me just fine. Of course, who am I kidding, eventually I will be getting the fancier models that even track your sleep. Note the cute little smiley face on the display. If the Fitbit is happy, then […]

A walk through my hometown

January 6, 2016

I love to walk and part of my morning routine is a walk through my town. Even when I walk the same route, there is always something new and interesting to see. I thought I would share some of the sights with you. These pictures are taken with my little smartphone. We have a small […]

Christmas vacation week

December 30, 2015

I decided to do something a bit different this year. I decided to view the week between Christmas and New Year’s a real vacation. I used to love this week off when I was in school; you had the time to enjoy the Christmas presents and time to look forward to the New Year. We […]

There is always a way

December 2, 2015

Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. And no, it’s not because of the food, but because of the emphasis on being thankful and being around family and friends. I am always reflective now too, since I have such happy memories of spending Thanksgiving with my Dad’s side of the family. They lived in Plymouth, which is […]

Do-si-do and away we go!

September 30, 2015

Here we are ready to embark on our square dancing adventure: Oh dear, I see we have turned into one of those couples that dresses alike and looks alike. 🙂 We arrive at the hall and Mr. Ken goes straight towards the refreshments to check them out. He comes back with a big smile on […]

Thoughts on the end of summer

September 23, 2015

I’m torn about summer coming to an end. On one hand, I will miss all the hours of daylight. I love getting up early – can we say 4 am?. By the time I’m done with my healthy breakfast at 5 am, it’s already getting light outside. On the other hand, this has been a […]

Yee haw!

September 9, 2015

Before I begin this week’s post, I’d like to start with a little story. Way back in the days of high school, I didn’t like gym. Hard to believe that an exercise fanatic like me didn’t like gym, but there you are. I think it was because: 1. The dorky gym uniforms. Can someone say […]
