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 [...]

Friday's Workout
Hi there! The last time that I worked out was 4 days ago, and then, as you may recall, I was laid out with the flu. I was pretty out of it when I was working out, and I thought it strange that I didn’t have the strength or stamina that I usually do when [...]
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 [...]
Great Home Workout
Finally! I got a workout in… at home! The assignment: 20+ minutes of cardio warm up with deadlifts and swings 20- 15- 10- cleans/ push presses 1 minute of four-touch in between stretch! I convinced my oldest nephew to take a 1 1/2 mile walk/run with me. He went ahead on his scooter, and I [...]
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 [...]
Woo hoo! A workout!
Okay, guys! (And by “guys,” I mean everybody!) I’ve been getting my workout on, but haven’t been blogging! I apologize to everyone in kettleworld. Mea culpa. Now that that’s over, let’s get on with my Wednesday Workout. I grabbed my energetic nephew for a brisk walk uphill. We kept track of our progress with my [...]
Super Sunday!
I thought today was going to be a great day before I even met it. You know what I mean? You’re on track, doing what you need to do, and you just have a good feeling? Kinda like walking into an exam prepared? I had an amazing Saturday, kicked off by a great walk around [...]
Ham and Cheesy
I pulled my hamstring, y’all. That’s what I get for working out on an incline, and not doing it correctly. Please don’t take any of these videos to be instructional, since I’m just learning myself! I’m going to call it a night, but before I go, I wanted to share a quick video of me [...]
