I used to think that walking around the gym with a sports bra and gym pants was just a little bit slutty. Not raging slutty, but low-key slutty. I’m different now. What brought about the change? That’s a good question and I have two answers. I wanted to be comfortable and not give a crap what anyone else thought. I am a sweater. Not the … Continue reading Outfit Post: Gym Clothes
I just came out of another fitness fell off the wagon and knocked my head and was dazed for a while and just wanted to lay down phase. In the first installment of My Journey Back to Fitness, I talked about how bike riding saved me, or the fit part of me.

I love my quadriceps. They are strong, tight, sexy. They’ve got their act together. My inner thighs, however, are what we call freeloaders. They don’t work, but they sure do eat of the bounty. They suck the fat from everything I eat and expend no energy to burn it off. They are greedy, lazy, and quite frankly, disruptive. So I’ve decided to wage war against … Continue reading My Inner Thighs and the Art of War
The Streets Are Alive I’ve pushed myself further still. I got to this street yesterday evening which seemed just a step too far, or, should I say, a street too far?

So, I haven’t been to the gym in a long while. Almost 3 months a long while. Not too long ago- 5 months ago- that would’ve been unheard of. So. I feel for the first time, a little anxious about going back. I’ve put on about ten pounds since the time I’ve been absent. And I’m short, so it shows. So, my body is banging … Continue reading My Body Is Bangin’, or I’m Changed Tonight
