Fitness Changes Aren't Always Reflected On the Scale
17 April 08 07:48 AM | Corinne | 2 comment(s)

It's not always about how much weight you lose that determines success. Girls at PNP also experience loads of changes in their attitude about themselves. They gain confidence in their ability to hang with the big boys OR avoid the stares of neighbors...

The Scale Is NOT My Friend...

You will find out this week that my son was diagnosed with autism last Wednesday. I plan to blog about it but I just ran out of time to craft it today. We are all FINE and thank God for my family, husband, and PNP girls. I get a lot of comfort and great...

The Scale Drama
20 October 07 09:50 PM | Trish | with no comments

Do you ever wake up in the morning, run to the scale, weigh-in, and either do a joyful dance because you are at your “happy weight” or slump your shoulders and look for your fat clothes because you gained a pound? For women, the scale has a powerful control...

Inches…the True Measure of How Our Bodies Are Changing
20 October 07 10:46 PM | Trish | 1 comment(s)

I endlessly discuss how you cannot live by the scale. It is such an inaccurate way to see weightloss success. 1. It doesn’t tell you what type of weight you are losing. Plenty of people who burn, burn, burn on the cardio neglect to add in strength training...

Guess Who’s Back…Once Again
20 October 07 10:33 PM | Trish | with no comments

Welcome home to me! It’s so good to be back and getting into the routine. I did not workout yesterday. Our flight was delayed in Vegas so we did not get in until 3:00 a.m. Rather than slugging through a half-*** workout I chose to rest, work, play with...

Losing the Vegas Weight
20 October 07 10:31 PM | Trish | with no comments

I’m coming clean. My name is Corinne and I gained 7 pounds while in Vegas (waits for gasps in the audience to die down). Why have I waited this long to tell everyone of my surge in weight? Because I didn’t want to let you down. Many of you read my blog...

Today I am praising all my girls. Ladies! You worked hard this past month and it certainly showed today. I can’t get over how many inches all of you were racking up this month. I’m SO PROUD OF YOU and it makes me feel great that you are taking to heart...

Oh! The Scale is Terrible!

The scale is horrible. It's no indicator of your fat loss success. Sure it eventually gives you props and when you are losing fat, that's great. But that scale often LIES to you. It goes up and down or refuses to budge when you are doing everything...

Getting Your Food Under Control
17 October 07 05:46 PM | Trish | with no comments

One of the quotes I tell people often is… “Losing weight is 80% what you put in your mouth and 20% what you do in the gym.” Think about that for a moment. 80% of what you do in terms of reshaping your body is the food choices you make. So, what would...

Undereating To Lose Weight?
16 October 07 04:32 PM | Trish | 2 comment(s)

When I grew up I remember going on diet after diet trying to lose weight. That was back in the day (late 80’s to early 90’s) where you tried to eat as lowfat as possible, filling up on sugary, fat free food items, avoiding eggs like the plague, and Lord...

It’s measurement time once again at PNP so I thought this would be a great day to rewind. The following blog discussed why measuring is a better way to gauge your fat loss success. My advice to all of you is to start your measurement journal today. On...

No Scale for Thirteen Days
03 October 07 09:14 PM | Trish | with no comments

Being addicted to the scale is something many of us suffer from. It’s the one thing I have never truly conquered in my own fat loss journey. I found that when I lost all my weight that it was disappointing every morning to hop on the scale and not see...
