This is a sponsored post by TruMoo provided by The Motherhood. All opinions are my own. Thanks for supporting FootballFoodandMotherhood.com. Maybe it’s age creeping up with me, maybe it’s stress, but getting a workout in, even if just 30 min of walking, everyday is what is helping me feel human. Maybe it’s just taking a few min a day for myself, but overall, working out has been a great stress… Keep Reading

Crunch-ed for Time? Crunch Fitness.
Habits. It’s wild to think how they actually happen. One day you’re a few (okay maybe more than a few!) pounds overweight after pregnancy and then poof – you find yourself basically addicted to working out every day. And you get this weird itch on days you don’t. It’s not a guilty itch – it’s more like any other habit – if you skip coffee or sugar one day –… Keep Reading

Running in a Winter “Run”derland
Most people don’t like the cold (evidence – how many people move to Florida when they retire?). But me, I love the snow and cold. I spent a lot of my childhood in Colorado, and wouldn’t change it for any sandy beach. This also means that winter is one of my favorite times to run. You’ve seen me running in the Poconos, and now this winter, I’m out running in… Keep Reading

My Achy Breaky Back: TENS Therapy At Home
This post was developed in partnership with Bayer, as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central. I received the Aleve® Direct Therapy TM TENS Device and compensation to facilitate my review. I looked down at the pool of muddy water below and thought about the last three miles of mud, running and barbed wire. This was the final act, and as I slid down the massive slide into the cess pool of… Keep Reading
2016 Holiday Gift Guide
This year it’s all about making life easier. The basics we seem to ignore sometimes, going for items that are way more over-the-top than we need. Maybe I’ve just been watching a lot of episodes of Tiny Houses on HGTV, but it’s reminded why I love living in NYC – we live more for the moments than all the “stuff.” Here a few items that we’ve seem to be able… Keep Reading
