  • Paralyzed by Paleo Perfectionism

    Diane writes a great post about Paleo Perfectionism.  I often tell people that they have to do what works for them –and slowly easing into it or finding parts of this perspective that does work is better than not doing it at all. One size does not fit all — yes eating no gluten, no…

  • Good Luck Matt at the Olympic Swimming Trials

    Funny story to share — HB and I went and got some Benajmin Moore paint this weekend so we could her room.  She is growing up and no longer wants her pink and yellow stripes as they are too babyish for her. In fact –the entire Pink color category is no longer tolerated in her…

  • I’m Too Sexy for This Catwalk…

  • Thankful for the blessings…

    it was a really special night last night — celebrating and cheering on all the cancer survivors including my husband, Scott.

  • CrossFit Kids is the Way!

    Coached a great group of athletes this AM as I covered for Coach Nick at 6A.  Knowing you are going to coach a fun group of people helps alot in getting your butt up and out the door.  I also coached last night — totally different feel with the evening people but still just as…

  • A Case of Mommy Guilt

    This someecard cracks me up but yet is so true. I’m sure that many of the Moms out there can totally relate — there are so many times that I feel like I am not doing my job as a Mom, not living up to the expectations I have for what my role should be.…

  • Sugar, Not Fats and Oils, is What is Causing the Obesity Epidemic

    Why are we so fat? We have not become greedier as a race. We are not, contrary to popular wisdom, less active – a 12-year study, which began in 2000 at Plymouth hospital, measured children’s physical activity and found it the same as 50 years ago. But something has changed: and that something is very…
