Off the Charts
June 21, 2010 by Erin
I’ve been lucky. Through staying active, eating healthy foods (for the most part) and good genes, I’ve maintained a stable weight for most of my adult life. On any given day, my weight could fluctuate ±4 pounds, but for the most part, I... Continue reading...
Special Treatment for the Expecting
June 7, 2010 by Erin
I’m now at the point where I’m quite obviously pregnant. People no longer hem and haw around the “Is she or isn’t she?” forbidden question—there is no way this bump is just an indication of a too-heavy meal or an extra... Continue reading...

Whip It, Into Shape
March 8, 2010 by Erin
When I was a little girl, I loved to roller skate. There was no smooth, paved surface that escaped the wrath of my little white skates with the pink wheels. I skated laps around the driveway and garage (in my jean jacket, no less). I took advantage... Continue reading...
A Housework Workout
February 22, 2010 by Erin
