Hey, folks! It’s Sunday, stats day, and I’m behind on the blog. Before I begin, I just want to say thank you to each and every person reading this blog! I know we’re all busy, and I appreciate the time you take to read, comment, Tweet, post, and otherwise engage with me online. That being [...]

Sunday Stats
Hey folks! It’s been a strange week. I either had the stomach flu or food poisoning. I didn’t work out all week. I counted calories every single day, using my blackberry. And I ended up with the exact same measurements as the week before, but a pound less: I’ll do a video progress update soon. [...]
Stressful Snacking?
Hey kettlefolks! For the past week, I’ve been in various coffee houses around Honolulu, working to a deadline. One of the joys of working for yourself is that you get to work anywhere! (Conversely, you don’t have an office or regular workspace.) Lately, I’ve been looking at this: [...]
100 Snatches
I’ll take positive reinforcement wherever I can get it. Today, I had two things to celebrate. I didn’t feel like working out at all today. The kids were napping at about the time we were supposed to pack up to go. I had little energy and was feeling a bit moody… and the little voice in [...]
Final Results of Cleanse!
Clean living is the cardinal principle in the lives of the world’s greatest athletes. Marshall “Major” Taylor I finally finished! The 9-day cleanse, that is. When I began the two pre-cleanse days, I was weighing in at 202.5 pounds. Two days later, I began the Isagenix 9-day program, and this is where this video recap [...]
Cleanse Day #8/ Kids and KBs
I feel great! Today has been the best day on the 9-day cleanse yet (and let’s not forget those 2 “pre-cleanse” days)! I had so much energy, it was strange. I didn’t have hunger pangs or hunger pains! I wasn’t extremely tired, and I was craving a workout. Today was family day, for sure. While [...]
Cleanse Day One and Fun in the Sun
Aloha! And a great big good morning to San Francisco, Austin, Washington D.C. and Raleigh! My first day using the Isagenix Cleanse for Life was bearable. I wasn’t as hungry as I thought I’d be… but boy, do I miss food. I like eating. I realized today that one of the consistent sources of satisfaction [...]
When Half A Workout Works
Hi, everyone! I write to you today on a blustery night in Honolulu, with the full moon lighting up the sky. (I bet it’s just beautiful at the shoreline behind Koko Crater right now!) Unfortunately I am feeling more blustery than beautiful, fighting and ultimately losing the battle to keep my family’s flu away. Today [...]
Fast Food and Slow Progress
Hi! For those who celebrate it, I hope you enjoyed a Happy 4th of July! The past week has just been KILLER. Two family members ended up in the ER: my 3-year old nephew had an asthma attack; and my mom was hospitalized for 5 days with pneumonia. My sister, the matriarch of our household, ended [...]
Weekend Blues?
This past weekend was pretty hectic. I started off on the wrong foot by showing up extremely late to my training session on Friday. Why have a blackberry if you’re not gonna look at it? Okay, enough griping. The good news is that I was extremely focused for 20 minutes, and learned a killer exercise [...]
