What I'm Reading This Week #18
Happy Friday everyone and welcome to May. We had a long week of getting the garage together so the Mr could finally park in it six weeks later. We still have some work to do in there as far as purging and such but we needed to get the space useable again since it's been a holding tank for our old countertop/sink, old grill waiting to be picked up by a friend, insulation, built planters and patio table and extra fencing from critter cages. We haven't had the mental drive to figure out how we get the shelves in order. I think I'm going to have to look up some garage organizing articles or something because it's really overwhelming to look at it all. If we can get a plan together to tackle it then maybe we'll have our weekend plans for next weekend as long as it's not hot yet because we don't want to be in a sweatbox. Now let's peek into: Dietitians Agree, Eating More Might Be the Secret to Your Strongest Year Ever (Volume eating FTW. It's been ...
That is hilarious (the body suit and also the robot voice). I just remember when I first became aware of a fitness fad I was maybe 6 or 7 and it was summer so I pretty much had to go anywhere my Mom wanted to go. She was into Jazzercise so I got to go and watch all the ladies exercise to jazzy music. If only I'd had a phone with games or a tablet back then because I just remember being nothing but bored since I wasn't quite at the age where I was interested in women dancing around like that, lol.

I've done so many. They all work for while, even the sweat suit, but they are difficult to maintain and often you lose water weight and maybe muscle. Healthy habits are the way to go but if you were put on one of these fad diets in elementary school, as I was, you learn bad habits that haunt you your whole life. I've learned that any system that requires you to pay money or join a membership to learn its 'secrets' is probably a scam to make money for someone else and is unlikely to help me change lifelong habits.
ReplyDeleteI think the Jane Fonda VHS tapes and the Thigh Master were the two big ones that were all the rage for many years. I do remember the sweat suit though! LOL
