cookie dough or carrots

September 15th, 2010 · Comments Off

Oh and let’s not forget all the times we wanted to shove crap food in our pie hole but instead reached for water and fruit while chanting to ourselves “The stomach doesn’t care what it eats, it just wants to digest. It’s the brain that wants to eat (insert food) and it will learn to [...]

Whys

April 14th, 2010 · Comments Off

I too was watching The Biggest Loser last night and like SoonerGRL, I was thinking about the Whys? I have a love/hate relationship with Jillian Michaels. She’s a good pusher, but at times I think she goes too far. I don’t know how I’d react to a trainer like that. When I got my free [...]
