Free Diet and Fitness Resource

Christina Jones — Thu, 02 Mar 2006 14:28:47 +0000

My friend Kris invited me to join SparkPeople.com, which is an online diet program similar to eDiets, but is free. I love FREE. I started a big diet 2 days ago – that is what you do when you have a 20 yr. high school reunion and a cruise coming up in your future, isn’t it? Well, it definitely is for me (weight has been my nemesis my whole life).

I haven’t quite figured out the ups and downs and how-to’s of SparkPeople just yet, but I have looked at eDiets and WeightWatchers and South Beach online many times, and just can’t bring myself to pay for membership, so we will give SparkPeople a shot and see if they can manage to help keep me motivated (as if a high school reunion isn’t enough motivation!). There seems to be a lot of little motivational tools, and socialization with other dieters, which could be fun. You accumulate points as you follow the program, but I don’t yet have a clue what you do with those points. Anyway, if you are like me, and want to give an online diet/fitness program a shot but have been unwilling to pay for one, sign on up and look me up, my username is CCJONES. Come on and join me, it is WAY more fun dieting together!

A New Beauty Poll

Christina Jones — Mon, 27 Feb 2006 14:05:38 +0000

Well, what I learned from the last poll is that no one likes to talk about exercise! Ha! Me neither, really. LOL Of the whopping 17 people who answered it, 64% made an effort to get some exercise every day. Only 2 of you were fitness addicts, and several were very sedentary.

This weeks poll is about Green tea. Do you drink it, and why? Take a second and give your answer, and if you don’t drink it, give it a try. The worst thing that can happen is nothing, the best thing will be benefits to your heart, skin, teeth and overall health!

Beauty in the Workplace Poll Results

Christina Jones — Mon, 06 Feb 2006 15:45:12 +0000

Here were the final results:

Do you think that beauty is more important than knowledge in the workplace?

Yes: 12%
No: 56%
Only if you are a model/actress/ect…: 32%

I am glad to see that most of those of you who chose to answer the poll last week believe that there is more to a job/career than looking beautiful. Most of us have probably had run ins with people in our lives that think they can get away with anything due to their smashing good looks, and unfortunately, a lot of times they really do. Fortunately I am not so blessed with looks that are good enough to make me think I can get away with anything, so I arm myself with knowledge instead. LOL

You might take another look at the post that originally started this poll if this subject is interesting to you- Gail and I shared some more thoughts on the subject - feel free to join in the conversation and let me know what you think!

I put up a new poll this week – asking you if exercise is part of your daily routine. I really have a hatred of exercise myself, I think because I get sweaty, and have to start all over getting ready for the day after I exercise. Ridiculous, I know. I am an evening bath-taker, and I like it that way. Exercise just messes up my whole routine! But, like I said, I am going to make a new routine, I am just not sure yet what it is going to be, but I will be sure to let you know, probably more than you care to know. LOL

I hope you had a great weekend, I sure enjoyed my husband’s week off last week, but am ready to get my nose back to the grindstone!
