#LJFitChallenge - It's Not Too Late

I began the #LJFitChallenge in February (Let the Fun Begin), and it's been a great challenge. However, at the end of this past month I've sort of fallen off of the wagon a little. As I increased my mileage, I was dealing with some soreness in my hamstring. And honestly, I am not a fan of walk outs and burpees. But then I had to remind myself of something that I had written earlier (#TuesdayTidbit - Doing What You Need To Do) which pretty much deals with sometimes the things we put off doing are the very things that we need to do.

So I gave myself a little swift kick in the rear to get back on track! I plan to modify Phase 2 a little so that I can catch up with Phase 3. However, if I'm not ready to move ahead, then I will stay where I need to stay in Phase 2. That's the beauty of this challenge. You can start the #LJFitChallenge whenever, and do the exercises wherever.




 And there is a great facebook group for support. Check it out here.


So, let's do this. Want to join me? #LJFitChallenge

    I kind of felt that way after the yoga challenge...a little burned out on having to post a pose every day. Don't get me wrong, it was really fun...but when it was done, so was I! Now there's a core challenge.

Pinrose Petal Pack Review and Giveaway - 10 Winners!

Bear with me, I know this blog is mainly about fitness, nutrition, and occasionally about being a stay-at-home mom, but I got the chance to review what I think is a pretty cool product and I wanted to share it with you. I'm not one to usually wear perfume. I have allergies, and I'm super sensitive to smells. So usually I just bypass perfume. But when I heard about Pinrose , I was intrigued. Being someone who is constantly in motion, and I know that many of you are the same way, I found this product to be very useful.  I'm talking about Pinrose, and their fragrances are in petal packs. They are perfect on-the-go packs. And on their website they have a  synesthesia   test where you basically look at a series of images and they conclude from that test what they think would be your best fragrances. I found the test very interesting. However, you were supposed to go with your gut and not think too long. On one of the images I actually changed my mind and changed...

Self Care Is Not Selfish It's Necessary

It's not selfish to take care of yourself. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. And I'll say it just one more time in case you didn't hear me. It's not selfish to take care of yourself. I have found through experience that when I'm not taking care of myself, not only do I suffer but my family suffers. So ditch the mom guilt and take the time that you need! I have a tendency to keep pushing my needs aside until I reach a breaking point. We've had a very busy fun summer so far. However, I've struggled to get some quality ' me ' time to decompress. I'll spare you the meltdown that ensued. But the reality check that followed prompted me to take action.

Jogging Strollers Freedom And Fresh Air

Full Disclosure: I have partnered with Thule to #giveaway a Thule jogging stroller, but I have not been compensated in any form.  I remember when Lil Man was a baby. My only time to get in a workout was before Hubby went to work. Which meant I had to run at 5am or 6am after being up most of the night with Lil Man. You guessed it, those early morning runs just didn't happen most days. I tried. I really did, but I was exhausted. Yes, I have a treadmill which helped. But it didn't give me the freedom ( or the fresh air ) that my jogging stroller did. Pushing the stroller was hard. It became a challenge that I looked forward to overcoming. And on those days that running just wasn't going to happen, walking could. So I did. I could take Lil Man out at any time and get some exercise and fresh air. Sometimes it was all we needed to change both of our moods.
