Well, I've kind of hit a plateau, so as Emeril Lagase would say "It's time to kick it up a notch!"

Time to start working out.  I've found this perfect little gym located in Eastlake, on Lakeshore Blvd. that looks like it would be perfect for getting me into shape.  It's called Get In Shape personal Training.

It has everything from free weights to Treadmills, Elipticals, Bikes and a bunch of other stuff.  It offers one on one training, as well as, working out with a partner.  I'm really excited.

Time to go to...Get In Shape!!!!!

Well I hope everyone had a wonderful St. Patty's Day. 

Many of you might know by now that I like to treat myself to some goodies once in a while, (everything in moderation) and this St. Patrick's Day was no different.

I started my day with a big bowl of Shephard's pie from the Hooley House in Mentor and a couple of Guiness beers.

I ended my day with a large corned beef sandwich, a few of green beers and a couple of shots at the Northcoast Cafe in Eastlake.

I don't know how that would add up in Vitabot, but at least I'm being honest.

To my surprise, when I stepped on the scale this morning I only gained 1 pound.  I can deal with that. Now back to work to lighten up!

Thank you Cori for the wonderful email about MBA's Seafood Midwest guide to fish.

Since my bakery supplies many party halls with desserts for their annual fish fries this time of year, I was really happy to see that Lake Erie's yellow perch was listed under best choices for fish.

So, everyone, hit a fish fry this Friday, and treat yourself to a small piece of cake, for a reward for all the hard work we're doing to Lighten Up!

Hopefully my healthy changes will be contagious to others.

I sure hope, not too many people gave up sweets for Lent:(

I gave up beer!!!

Here go the pounds:)
