A Cinch Inspired Giveaway

Stepping on the scale once a week is never the highlight of my week. Especially when I do not see the numbers I yearn to see. This week I have gained 2.5 pounds and I was really upset by this. I’ve been on the Cinch program and working out with CrossFit twice a week. I [...]

Green and Fit: My Journey

greenandcleanmom — Fri, 24 Feb 2012 19:00:33 +0000

As a child I disliked gym class. I dreaded not being picked when we played dodge ball or tripping when we ran a relay. I was clumsy, awkward, uncoordinated and had no confidence when it came to athletics. I feared pull ups, running a mile and being tested and then compared to my peers for [...]

One month into 2012 and I feel as though the New Year is just that – renewing. I’ve come close to meeting my weight loss and inch loss goal. I’m officially at a healthy BMI, I’ve lost 28 pounds and over 18 inches and I’m into my almost skinny jeans! I have 10 more pounds [...]

Strong 4 Life Campaign on Childhood Obesity: More Harm than Good

greenandcleanmom — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 19:07:48 +0000

My daughter’s birthday bash was this last weekend. I watched children of all different ages, sizes and shapes play together. Tall, short, chubby, curvy, stocky and muscular but not one child had the exact same body shape. They all consumed the ice cream and cake with joy and did not worry about their waist line [...]

Birthday Fruit Kabobs

Today my daughter is 5 years old and she asked for fruit kabobs for her school snack. How blessed am I? Of course these colorful and delicious fruit snacks are topped with 2 slices of candied fruit with sugar sprinkles but it is her birthday after all. Who doesn’t deserve some sugar on their birthday? [...]

Win a 2 Week Inch Loss Kit

greenandcleanmom — Fri, 06 Jan 2012 13:00:13 +0000

I’m officially down 22 pounds. I can hardly believe it. The inches have just melted off and I’m convinced it’s partially because I’m using Cinch® to help me stay full and lose inches not muscle. I’ve written about my weight loss journey and struggle and believe me I get what it feels like to not [...]

My Heart Hurts

greenandcleanmom — Thu, 05 Jan 2012 13:00:09 +0000

I have been reminded, cancer is rampant. Young women like me with young children, careers and lives are suddenly frozen in their tracks with fear and anxiety about living another day and what the future holds. Women who probably weren’t feeling well but continued drudging through the daily juggle of multiple responsibilities and child rearing [...]

CrossFit Vs. Cookies and Cream Puffs

Haley — Sat, 31 Dec 2011 13:54:54 +0000

This is the first Holiday season in years that I have not gorged myself and packed on a few extra pumpkin pie pounds. I have been evaluating why that is, since the goodies are still available and my sweet tooth is screaming “eat more”. The reason is CrossFit! I joined our local CrossFit in July [...]

Inch Loss 11 Week Update

greenandcleanmom — Mon, 05 Dec 2011 22:06:02 +0000

When you wear stretchy pants and have only one pair of jeans that you fit into and baggy sweatshirts hide your extra inches – you’re in a bad spot. A health crisis or close to one and probably a wardrobe nightmare which just depresses you more so you eat more, why not? That was me [...]
