Survival Mode Put Us Back to Zero

A lot of you came here many moons ago when I left Sparkpeople.  I loved the community of that place and the support I got there.  It was at the height of us being on our game.  That motivation you have in the beginning when you're consistently rewarded with weight loss, smaller clothes, compliments to keep your motivation high and you somehow begin to step out of being invisible to the public to people smiling at you, opening doors or striking up conversation.  You start to feel human.  You don't have to worry about going to restaurants or 'fitting' somewhere.  You can go to a wedding and see those God awful thin folding chairs and while you still don't like them, you're not concerned.  Many of your worries that fit people never had to think of, have faded away.  We started for the long haul in our 30's and that's when we had the most success, losing 226 and 190 lbs respectively.  When we went on vacation, as long as we came back and got rig...

Workouts Have Gone to the Dogs

You know what's fun?  When you're doing a workout and suddenly a pup pops up!  For me, it makes the workout go much faster or doesn't seem as bad when a pupper tupp is present.  Of course there are other times the dog is distracting.  (Sorry Peanut.)  But I thought I'd share some of my favorite videos where pups make an appearance and you can decide for yourself if they're right for you to do.  (You do them at your own risk should you decide to do any of these and don't say I didn't warn you on Tracy's stuff.  She's a beast.)

Chris Pecsi -  You'll be asking yourself "where's the dog?" but it makes an appearance about halfway through and I love that they're trying to keep it together being so serious.


Fitness Blender- I know there's another longer video with Loki but I couldn't find it.  This is a shorter one to get ya movin' a bit


Tracy Steen- We did one or two of her workouts and then came upon her dog Lily who looked similar to the pup we used to have and that was that for us!  


Jessica Smith-  Anyone whose done her workouts before knows of Peanut.  The little Vienna sausage who is either laying in her way or chomping on a chew stick in her bed.


Grow with Jo-  Bentley is a staple in many of Jo's videos and he reminds me of my fur sister.  She had so many of the same Lhasa qualities he has and it's like working out with her again.  


Fitness with Fido-  I haven't done this yet but I love this treat motivated hound!


Blogilates- Sir George The Magnificent is making his debut in this short workout and if you have a lapdog sized pup you can freak them out and join in!


I hope even if you choose not to do them, they at least brought a smile to your face!
