I’m A Hot Mom Challenge & Prizes For March

Posted March 1st, 2010 by Cherrie | No Comments

I’m starting the I’m A Hot Mom Challenge this month.  It’s not a secret that moms struggle with spending a little time for themselves.  As moms, we always want to be of service to our love ones, 24×7.  We always put ourselves last on our list, that is, if we even make it to the list.  Making the time for ourselves is really important and it’s about time that we give ourselves PERMISSION to do that.   Five minutes, 30 minutes, it doesn’t matter, as long as you spend a little mom time everyday.  By allocating a little time for yourself each day, you will be happier, energized, and more available to your love ones, so stop feeling guilty about having to spend sometime taking care of yourselves.

One of the main reasons a lot of people can’t get into their goals is because they just have gazillion things listed on their to do lists! Just like a physical clutter, a mental clutter consisting of your mental or physical to do lists, bothers you everytime you see or think about it.
There’s also what I call the people clutter. When your friends with people who take advantage of you and keeps on exploiting you for their own benefit, or people who just wants your constant attention to them, they are the poison pals you seriously need to consider breaking ties with.

Fitness Family 2010 – Week 10

Posted March 7th, 2010 by Cherrie | 12 Comments

fitness family, young and fabulous, my hot mom Can’t believe it’s already the 10th week since I joined Mamavation and started my weight loss journey.  Anyway, this post is not just about me.  I’m here to give an update on my family as well, since this is the fitness family series.

As you can see in the picture, my kids just started their figure skating class.  They have been rollerblading around the house since January, from the time they get off school to bedtime.  They don’t wanna use their slippers anymore, it’s all they wanna wear around the house.  I don’t have hardwood floors so I just let them.  It’s another way for them to stay active at home.  Now, that they’ve been used to it already,  they want to take it to another level, and begged that they try figure skating.

Did you know that? Yep. According to Realge.com, people who sit around too much have their enzymes that breaks down fat, practically turned off. But no worries, you can turn it back on again. How? Well, for one, stop being a couch potato! Their studies on animals show that cutting back on time spent moving around had a big impact on the enzymes that helps break down fat in the body, slashing it by 94 percent in LESS than one day’s worth of inactivity! So get high on the sugar and start fidgeting! Whoa! Hold it right there! I’m KIDDING about the sugar, so don’t you dare!

Yes, this is why I was hyperventilating this afternoon. I got a chance to interview Melissa Joan Hart (of Sabrina, The Teenage Witch) and Soleil Moon Frye (Of Punky Brewster)! You probably know that Melissa and Soleil are actresses, but you may not know that they are also best friends. The hectic life of being a Hollywood actress isn’t easy, and since childhood, Melissa and Soleil have leaned on each other for support.

This week, on the young and fabulous series, we are going to talk about your Gremlin.  Yes, you read it right.  You have a Gremlin in you.   A Gremlin, my hot moms, is that inner voice that speaks to your self-doubt and fear.  It is the voice that operates out of fear.  This is the part of you that holds you back, fights and resists change, even the change that is good for you.
