Valleys and Views

March 18, 2009 in Best of GH, Motivation

  Stories of sadness, fear, and loss are surrounding us during this unstable time.  It seems to me that many people are walking through “valleys” right now.  I was thinking about this today.  I don’t like being in the valley. I like being on top of the mountain.  It’s a much better view.  But I […]

Full Body Workout

March 16, 2009 in Full Body Workouts, Workouts

It’s probably Tuesday for most of you now so Happy St. Patrick’s Day.  Give your hands a workout and pinch lots of people.   Monday was crazy busy for me.  I had a callback for a Sprint commercial I auditioned for last week and we had taekwondo in the evening.  Well for me that’s crazy […]

What’s your why??

March 11, 2009 in Motivation

I admit it.  Sometimes I look through celebrity magazines in hopes of coming across some celebrity secret fitness secret.  Gwen Stefani eats what???  I’ll also admit saying things like, “I’d look that good too if I had a chef and and trainer.”  It’s been and sometimes still is my excuse.  Don’t let anyone tell you […]

Protein Cookie Dough Recipe

March 10, 2009 in Recipes, Snacks

As you know, I try to stick to whole foods.  I do have one weakness…okay not true…I have A LOT of weakness but one that I don’t think I’m willing to give up…protein powder.  It’s just so darn convenient and it’s really easy to make things that tastes like treats.  For instance A Good Idea Pudding […]

Scrawny Beasty Sprint Workout

March 9, 2009 in Cardio, Workouts

My gym membership is officially cancelled.  I was sick my last week so I I didn’t even get to use it. Oh well. We scored a fantastic deal on a weight bench, squat rack, and set of olympic weights off of Craigslist.  I’m sooo excited. Ridiculously excited!  Forget about jewelry or shoes…I’m a beast! A […]

Do you doodle or do you draw?

March 6, 2009 in Best of GH, Musings

Each day we can look at our goals as a fresh sheet of paper. Everyday we each get so many hours to fill our blank sheet of a paper with drawings.  I must confess I struggle with getting started.  More often than I’d like to admit I doodle meaningless little squiggles along the edges just […]

Codeine, Chicken Soup and Prince Charming

March 4, 2009 in Health and Food, Recipes

I learned three things this past week.  One I’m codeine intolerant.  It made feel like I washed down 2 pounds of broccoli with 4 shots of vodka then got on the teacup ride at Disneyland.  It lasted for miserable 36+ hours, the dizziness is still lingering. Seriously, it’s that bad.  Worse than the flu itself. Secondly, I came […]

20 Minute Treadmill Workout

March 2, 2009 in Cardio, Workouts

Generally I work hard at being a positive person.  Until I get sick.  Last week I got the flu and rather than write whiney posts about how bad I felt I decided to lock myself up in a dark room and feel sorry for myself.  Good times.   I’ve been posting a lot of strength […]

The Oscar Winner for Best Arms and a Full Body Workout

February 24, 2009 in Full Body Workouts, Workouts

I’m sort of behind in pop culture. Hence a post referring to the Oscars two days after the ceremony instead of one. It’s actually sort of pathetic how little I know about pop culture. I thought Hannah Montana’s hair was really blonde until my son informed me it was a wig.  And this was after […]

A Letter of Forgiveness

February 19, 2009 in Best of GH, Musings

I feel like I’m wobbling on the edge of losing all self-control.  I’m not thinking about dying my hair blond and leaving my family in search of Elvis.  It’s food.  Once again I’m struggling to not be controlled by food.  Will this fight ever end?  Probably not. At least, as long as I live in […]
