Ok, so there you have it...I'm pregnant! And not only am I pregnant but I'm expecting TWINS! Yep, so there goes the weight loss. Frumpy to Fit will have to wait (ha, ha! Wait, weight! pun intended) until after I give birth to my two little bundles of joy. I'm planning on starting a new blog about motherhood. When I do, I'll post the link here. I'll be sure to return once I've delivered as...

Well, if there is anyone out there reading my Frumpy to Fit blog then you'll notice I've taken quite a break from blogging. It started off with a little slacking on my part but then it actually turned into some legitimate reasons why I haven't had the time to write about my journey. Now, I'd love to share these reason(s) with you but at the moment I think I'll have to refrain. The reason being...

Sweet Treat 'Recipe'So last night after dinner I was craving something sweet. Usually I'm a salty kinda gal but last night the sugar monster was calling me. I do prefer to eat fresh, homemade unprocessed food but I do keep a plethora of "100 calorie" or less snacky things on hand just in case.

Ups and downs...life is full of them. For instance my internet connection...it's been up and down for the last week or more. My weight has been up and down for the last 15 years. This week in particular I have some emotional ups and downs, some pretty big ones. One day would be horrible and I'd think things couldn't be worse. Then the next day I'd get some great news and everything would go...

Practical Yoga for Everyday People - Link to an 11 minute audio clip on the third chakra (courage and commitment). It's the "spark". It helps with taking who you are and want to be and making it manifest in the world. I needed a little positive talk today. Maybe you could use some too? Check out the website for many more videos, audio and information. http://www.practicalyoga.t v/index....

Well the internet connection in my neighborhood went down for a few days so I haven't been able to post. It's Sunday morning and a beautiful day - it's suppose to be around 70 degrees today. I'm going to take advantage of the nice weather and get outside. I'll get back to blogging this evening....

I've got the "that time of the month" blahs. Ladies you know what I'm talking about. I'm crampy, crabby, tired, headachey, no energy...BLAH! I'm not motivated to do anything but take a nap. I'm hoping to work up the energy to go to the gym this evening but my mind & body is totally fighting it. The little devil on my shoulder is whispering to hell with being productive just crawl into bed...
