Tell Me Thursday

March 11th, 2010 · No Comments

Yesterday’s Wordless Wednesday is a photo of my new exercise machine, a Weslo Cardio Glide. I am SO excited! I’ve never been one for exercise, but my parents got one of these when I was a teen and it was something I could actually do. I’ve always had to have low impact because of back issues and knee issues. The Cardio Glide was a blessing to me. When I first started out I was barely able to do 3 minutes. Within a few weeks, I had worked my way up to 15 minutes. A couple years ago (ummm, yes I said years) I talked to my chiropractor about using it again and he said it was one of the best things I could do for my back without risk of making it worse. I technically already have one, but it’s buried in storage maybe never to be seen again. So with my tax refund I browsed the classifieds and found a newer model. The guy even delivered it for me.

Now, only if I can get Andrew to stay off it so I can have a turn.

Writing Riches With Minimal Effort

March 9th, 2010 · No Comments

The top quality websites and blogs out there depend on fresh, unique information as well as massive loads of content to pull in visitors and potential customers to their sites.

On the flipside, you’ve probably heard of spam or scam blogs…over even webpages filled with nothing at all but adsense ads. But thanks in part to the search engines and people becoming more aware, these rubbish sites could be a thing of the past.

The fact still stands: You will need a constant flow of fresh, unique postings on your blogs or webpages not only to be indexed by the search engine spiders, but people in your niche market can also refer to when the need arises. And every niche, regardless of its focus in making money or weight loss guides has to offer value in the form of content on their blogs or follow up emails…

Beyond The Newbie Stage

March 7th, 2010 · No Comments

Many people like yourself have landed up on this page because you’re looking at the most fool-proof way to start your Internet business. Starting one isn’t as easy as you think after all the trials, difficulties and challenges you will face along the way and the heaps of competition you will discover online.

Want proof? Simply Google ‘make money online’ and you’ll discover how much competition you have – probably in the hundreds and thousands of them!

Worse still, some unethical marketers who want to make a fast buck out of you by selling all kinds of crappy and irrelevant information to you.

It’s misleading alright…no, it’s plain wrong to waste any newbie marketer’s time and effort like this!

Fact is, there will be ‘gurus’ and ‘experts’ who will be more than happy to exploit clueless marketers who are quick to draw out their wallets to make a ‘life-changing purchase’.

Lets get something straight…there is no such thing as a life changing purchase!

Even the best money- making blueprint will not work for you unless you put it into practice, and in most cases, actually making the system manifest in real life is the hardest challenge you’ll face…

Goodbye Coke. It’s been fun.

Devil in the Dark, As Seen Through a Coke Bottle.

I mentioned on Monday how I’m going to try to lose some weight and take control of my health. Well let’s just say that’s not going so well. LOL

I started with trying to give up Coke. A long time ago I was addicted…like 4 or 5 a day had to have it addicted. I cut it out once and only had it occasionally like when we went out to eat or something. Then when I got pregnant I stopped drinking it all together because it started having this nasty aftertaste to it. It been about 8 years or so since I’d had a Coke. I had tried it now and then since I had Andrew, but it still had that same nasty taste. Well, last summer I finally was able to have a sip and that taste was gone. Then another sip and another and another and well you get the picture. Then when I made the 3-day drive out to Georgia to visit my family, I started drinking it again pretty regular just for the pick me up for the drive. Not long after I got home I realized I was back up to drinking it daily and sometimes a couple times a day. Then suddenly I’d catch myself having two or more a day here and there. I’d try to buy it in bulk at the grocery store “to save money” from driving to the corner gas station once a day, but that backfired on me because then it was readily available and I was drinking two to three times as much.

A few weeks ago I decided I needed to at least get it back down to once a day and go from there. So I bought the smaller bottles they sell now. And I started drinking one in the morning and one in the evening. I eventually got myself down to one a day and only when I was really stressed would I have a second one. Then yesterday I only had one left. I drank it in the morning and decided that was it. I wasn’t buying anymore. I did it once, I could do it again. Not to mention I know cutting out Coke will help with my weight loss goals. Well, I woke up this morning with a killer of a headache. Like I thought I was going to die if I didn’t put my head through a wall headache. Now me and headaches have a history. And let me tell you this was one of the worst I’d had in a very long time. Out of curiosity, and to make sure I was right, I went up to the store and grabbed one Coke. And sure enough within an hour or so the headache had dulled. It’s still there. Mocking me. Tempting me. But I will keep reminding myself why I’m doing this.

Other than that it’s not too bad. I’m trying to do some mild walking until my new exercise machine gets here. My ankles are swollen like balloons and my ankles hurt, but I haven’t died yet so I figure I’m doing fine. I forgot to weigh myself on Monday, so I weighed myself today. I’m not going to share the actual weight, but I did get a weight loss ticker so you can watch my progress. It’s over there in the sidebar under the Plus Size Bloggers button. My goal for the 14 weeks is 30 pounds. I hope that 2 pounds a week is reasonable.

Until next time…
