See there you go again being so sweet. Thank you. Yes running I think is what is keeping me at my current weight while I have been lazy with bb and diet. LOVE running ;). Thank you again.
Thats ok I like my wine too, to a degree, we all have odd habits that not everyone is going to always agree with. just have to live your life for you. Good luck with your training.KIT AshK
thank you so much for your very kind words. They mean alot to me. It has not been an easy process but WELL worth the trials and tribulations. I noticed that you are a wine connoisseur, me too.
Hey, thanks so much! It's slow going for me though. I'm getting the vertical definition, but have yet to see the awesome six packs that a lot of folks seem to sport around here. Take care and have a great weekend! xoxo Demetria
You are so right, most Americans are missing out on good Kona. And sadly, a lot are fooled by the blends. It certainly is a premium American grown product, with much hand care & labor given throughout the entire process from bean to cup. Thanks for showing your support, and I hope one day you'll try my coffee. It's awesome, but I have to say that! Take care. xoxo Demetria
Aloha, and thank you! I used t run for years, but I ruined my knees doing so. Good luck with your race. Take care and enjoy the rest of your week. xoxo Demetria
Good for you! I did some core work and then took a cardio kickboxing class. I love taking classes to break-up the workouts during the week. Tomorrow is barbell class. Just signed up for my first competition...call me crazy, but we'll see what happens. Take care.
Thank you so much for your kind words. I have always wanted to look and feel better, but I never had the motivation. Marzia Prince and Gaspari helped me with this. It was tough, but it was a lot of fun...I'm gonna keep on going too! Take care and have a healthy week!
