The alarm went off and I thought, “Just five more minutes.” Fifty-six minutes later it was 6:46 a.m. and I was missing bootcamp! So frustrating…On Friday’s I walk with a friend after bootcamp, I got up and got that workout in but it wasn’t the same when my day is jump started with kettlebells, core [...]

The other night I was sitting there watching football – yes, my favorite time waster – well, it’s not a time waster, it’s actually a very valuable use of time, but anyway, that’s about the one thing I watch and don’t do anything else…Anyway, my outside voice actually said “I miss getting up mornings and [...] Last Wednesday ended our 45 day Nutrition Support Group. This is the first program of its’ kind for KBBC. I had 7 initially committed, with 5 completing the 45 days on the plan. Collectively, those 5 lost over 80lbs!

When I first told friends that I would be cutting out sugar, alcohol and most grains for six weeks, I heard the same thing over and over: “That sounds really restrictive.” Well, technically, it [...] Even though I swore I would never fall into the yo-yo dieting trap, the fact is that I’ve gained and lost about 30 pounds three times in the last five years. (Actually, I’ve lost it twice so far. I’m on my way to losing it the third and last time right now!) From size 12, I [...] We had our first weekly weigh-in and group meeting today, and while we didn’t all share our exact numbers, the room was full of smiles — everyone lost weight! Personally, I’ve been able to see and feel a difference already. In fact, I went to the meeting in a pair of jeans that haven’t fit for [...] “How much change can you make in 45 days?” was the question I asked my KBBC crowd who gathered at my home Sunday to launch the kick-off of our first Nutrition Support Group.
