The Daily Grind and I Don’t Mean Coffee: Day 116

Hey, I’m still here. I’m alive and breathing. I’ve increased my exercise and guard my eating. I can do more and it shows as my weight loss slowed. I am almost 1/3 of the way through my year and I need to up the ante. It can be really hard on days that I just can’t find time for myself at all. I remember getting up at 4am or 5am to exercise when I knew I had a full day. That’s the kind of commitment that moves mountains. I am definitely a mountain that needs moving or so I feel like that some days. 🙂 Just as I found that if I don’t exercise in the morning, or I if don’t post in the morning and put it off until later in the evening, I am often just too tired. Exercising and eating right help off set the daily grind and can bring vitality to your day.

Oh, here is something new. I got an email from LARABAR yesterday and here is what they said:

“Did you catch us on “The Biggest Loser” last night?  Trainer-extraordinaire Dolvett Quince suggested Peanut Butter Cookie and Cherry Pie LÄRABARs as great go-to snacks before the contestants embarked on a hike – which made us pleased as punch!  You can watch the clip here.

To celebrate our big news, we’d like to offer you the opportunity to give away 2 Peanut Butter Cookie and 2 Cherry Pie LÄRABARs on your blog.”

So I get to give away 4 LARABARS. Stay tuned and see if you can win the 4 LARABARS?

    josie, that’s the way to do it. I love what you said about being a mountain that needs moving. That’s very witty and it made me think about how much i need moving too.

    My idea for a contest… come up with a new flavor that they don’t have yet and see if they like the suggestion.
    My new flavor suggestion, honey, ginger, sesame.ReplyCancel

    Yes, indeed. If you can exercise before starting your day, than you know that nothing will interrupt you later. I have no ideas for your contest, but I am sure someone more clever than me will help you come up with something.ReplyCancel
