WEEKEND UPDATE!

GUESS WHO'S BAAAACK!?!?!?!

If you guessed Mike Kerner, you win! Our favorite Slop-Body is back and shedding that tubbiness! He upped his usual 2 miles walk/run to a 4 mile run/walk! Yeah dude!

Lannie got in a 45 minute fat burn, but is lacking motivation and forcing himself to go to the gym. We dealt with this last year everyone, after about 3 weeks it starts to get HARD. You start to realize, this isn't your regular 2 weeks off sugar thing... its 100 EFFING DAYS! Lannie has taken to chewing sugar free gum to fight cravings! He is a big fan of 5 gum and recommends it to everyone!

Winters sent this pic, I bet her little bastard children are tempting her! Hang strong W!

Kool-aid rocked the gym! woo hoo!

D$ was the kid that other kids weren't allowed to play with. Bad influence?

D$ and V-Rod sent me this pic of them staying sugar free! We went out the other night and I saw V-Rod turn down some sugar free chocolate covered almonds... She is a ROCK!

Baby Kate is being awesome as always! Bikram, CHECK. 1/2 hour cardio killing, CHECK. Strength training, CHECK! This batch is bad y'all!

Beezus and Schwartz are in NC doing an entire weekend of cardio, I can only speculate this because neither of them have come up for air to text me! Tonsil hockey can be so tiring! #1+#2=<3? stay tuned!

I asked Emily to do a blog since she emailed me some great stuff, she politely declined. I was planing on calling her to try and convince her, so I asked Daniel for her phone number. He gave it to me and then told me "DO NOT PUT THIS ON THE BLOG!'... I had never even entertained that thought! But i HATE it when people tell me what to do, and I usually do it just because they said I cant.. So, suck it D-Thomp... Click HERE for Emily's phone number!

I am going to shred on the slopes via skiing for the next few days, and might be blogging a bit slowly, do not fret people! I will do my best to keep the blog up and rocking!

KEEP IT SUGAR FREE FRIENDS!

NEWS NEWS NEWS!

Here it is my friends.. the 100SFD NEWS!

Mike Kerner has been having knee issues and hopped into a 1 hour spinning class yesterday, looks like this is going to be his new jam-jam since running just isn't doing him any good!

Schwartz is doing weights like a champ. He knocked out bench, shoulder press, and triceps. All with high reps... this dude is pretty much poised for shred!

Lannie did TRX - Total body resistance exercise which is just your weight and bands! It seems fairly simple and not nearly as pansy as "Ballet Burn"... Yeah Beezus...  I'M CALLING YOU OUT!!!

Roy says that hes "Just not into the 100 days like he was last year."... I want to remind everyone that this is a MARATHON! Its 100% OK to not be into this ALL the time, just remain sugar free and push over those humps, this is where its easy to backslide and staying strong will pay off in the long run!... 2 weeks is a long time for a competition, this is more than 3 months! Hang in there Roy! We are all there for you!

I think I know what Roy is going through, he is having his MERIAD! (That's my slang for man-period) I only know this because I am also having my meriod right now!  I have had a really strange week, Vanessa and I were talking about it last night and we agree something is just in the air. I must be on my meriod because Ive been acting like a fucking baby everywhere I go and saying things like the following...

"I'M SO DEPRESSED, I JUST NEED TO CRY RIGHT NOW"

"I HATE MY BODY IN THIS SHIRT"

"I COULD NEVER TRY ON JEANS RIGHT NOW, I FEEL SOOO BLOATED"

I'm not kidding... Seriously people... Ash even has an alter ego name for me... Tyra... So if you ever see me acting a fool, call me out on it.... But call me Tyra when you do!

ADAM AND CAROLINE!

NEW COMPETITORS!? THATS RIGHT! I had a pleasant surprise email yesterday from my good friends up in Canada, Adam and Caroline! I had not idea but they are doing the 100SFD's too! The email said something like "T-Man you never mention us on the blog" so I emailed them back "You never mentioned that you were doing the competition".. Then I went through all my old emails and I was wrong.. they told me.. I forgot.. Not too many of my dude friend get the whole "Man Period" thing but Adam does! He gets his all the time! We usually go shopping together to ease the stresses of the meriod... Happy to have you two!

Last night was Molly's birthday! We had an AMAZING time! Thanks Mol!

Baby Kate is just handling shit up north! Here is a snippet from an email she sent - "AND, another Bikram class tonight - I felt exhausted, but finally making some really great improvements.  I'm gonna miss Bikram when I'm on travel for three weeks!  Looking for a good gym to work out in while I'm gone."

NEWS! NEWS! NEWS! NEWS!

Kate's sugar free granola!

SUGAR RAY LEONARD!?!?!?!?!?! SERIOUSLY WORLD?!?!?!?

That's right, Sugar Ray Leonard has joined the cast of "Dancing with the STARS", I will be boycotting that show because I am staying sugar free!

In all honesty, I'm boycotting that show because it sucks.


Once again it seems that Kate is MVP'ing this whole thing! She is doing Bikram yoga like a champ and sent this lovely message:


"20 minutes of an abs class then a 1 hour cardio class (BodyAttack). I'm having a hard time finding granola in the store that doesn't have lots of sugar, so I decided to make another batch of my own. Used honey and agave nectar for the sweetness and used coconut chips instead of sweetened shredded coconut. Very nice blog today about Roberta. I'm sure Alexis appreciated it. And way to go Alexis for giving up sugar during this tough time!"

2 cups berries, 1 banana, 1 cup spinach, a little light silk

Very kind words, and she is right, WAY TO GO ALEXIS!


Stephanie P is taking off with a vengeance!!!!! She is eating right and working out! She sent in some great pics and 100SFD's is really proud of her!!!! GO STEFF!!!! Here is a nice morning smoothie recipe she sent me ->


Boring Beezus left CrossFit and moved on to greener pastures with "Ballet Burn"! The name does sound a little "pansy" but she assures me that its awesome! We are all glad that you're happy Beez!


Schwartz did a 9 mile run the other day, with a GIANT hill! 40 minutes up and 30 back down!

Cadance, such a fat ass!

Jessica Dean did a 3.8 mile hike... Hey Jessica, I hope you hiked off all that guilt for cheating on us here at the 100SFD's... This "may" be the last time I bring this up!


Winters finished week 1 of P90X.. she says it hurts so much she can barely brush her teeth!


Taylor has committed to getting into some yoga classes, he has acknowledged flexibility as his weakness and is going to address it! So proud you Tay!


D-Thomp and Emily are shredding in DC killing it with P90X. D-Thomp's cat Cadance however is a lazy bastard, and is ZERO motivation during shred time!

Denlin has been sick for quite a few days! get better D$!

Girls Night has left the flu behind and is back from her trip to Jackson Hole! She got her sweat on up there in Wyoming and came up with quite a few work outs of her own! She told me about an interesting one called "Hooking up"... I didn't ask but I'm assuming its a LOT of cardio! ;)

Better late than never!!! Lannie got his body fat % done yesterday! 14.5% fat and a lung capacity of 4.225L (I don't know what the EFF that means but its NEWS, right?) He also needs to start consuming 3300 calories a day! Very cool LAN-MAN!

TODAYS NEWS - Feb 23rd

Mike Schwartz is running so hard we might change his nick name to Forrest! He did 8.5 miles with 30 minutes of weights after! Get it MIKE!!!!

Ash and I made lasagna last night and it called for 1 tablespoon of sugar... FUCK THAT! We used agave nectar instead!

Baby Kate did a Zumba dance class (Latin Style) for 2 hours!!!! she is quickly turning into the 100SFD's MVP!!!! So proud of you Baby Kate!!!!!!

Molly did a "Molly Loop" and free weights!

Dthom and Emily are P90X'ing like madmen! Arms today and plyometrics yesterday! 

I don't think Beezus is enjoying her work out routine, she went this morning but wasn't too pleased. Hang in there B! Everyone here at 100SFD's is hella proud of you! 

Winters is keeping her kids in the DC school district healthy and sugar free! Thanks W for making this world a better place! Here is a picture of her dry erase board in school! Winters had a 14 hour work day and still managed to come home and knock out plyometrics P90X!

Stephanie P just told me she quit, she couldn't deal with eating NO sugar and that she just wanted to quit refined sugar... When I asked her if she had taken the time to read the rules yet she said that she didn't...

Sunday, Bloody Funday! & BTW... Kobe Bryant is reading the blog!

"Ash, I'll start with the little urchin that has the sign and you choke out the other two! GO!!!"

It was a very intense Sunday for the 100SFD crew!

Ash and I went for a drive and heard the call of the sugar sirens (greek mythology) off in the distance. We got close enough to smell the Tag-alongs but last second punched them hard in the face and ran off with our dignity intact... It was close people... Almost too close!

Schwartz went wild in the "Valley Ford Relays".  His team won a respectable silver medal, each leg was 2.75 miles and our boy Schwartz averaged 5:30 pace per mile!!! He said he gave it 100% and basically felt like shit the rest of the day because of his herculean efforts, bloody funday for him!

Girls Night tried her first (and last) Bikram yoga class! She had to leave after an hour because of the heat, she didn't stop yakking her guts up till the night time. I asked her to send a picture, and she did. Then she immediately begged me not to publish it on the blog... it was hard not to... but i will respect her wishes. Bloody Sunday for her!

I actually recorded this Kobe clip off "Sports Center" this morning! I'm pretty sure that Kobe had been reading the blog and had Girls Nights awesome BLOODY FUNDAY YAK-FEST on his mind! The best part is that one of the commentators said "Whats Bikram yoga?" and the other guys says "No idea, but Kobe seems to know".. I guess those morons arent reading our blog! In fact, I bet they are eating candy bars right now!... Do I envy them? .... Maybe just a little.

Molly is a massage therapist by trade, she knocked out 5 yesterday! That's like squeezing a fist for 5 straight hours! And then she did pushups! BEAST!

Mike Kerner did a 2 mile walk/run! Technically i think that's a jog, but I'm not parting hairs!

Jessica D did a 4 mile hike and climbed 1150 ft in elevation! Bloody Funday JD!!!

Ashley and I went for an hour long run with Lazer. Some people run next to their dogs,  I raise the stakes! I carry my 25 pound dog! Gotta get my shred in somehow! Then I went and played street hockey for a few hours! That is tiring! I had a couple good falls, scrapes, and bruises, making it a BLOODY FUNDAY for me!

We used to call winters "Bloody Sunday" but then we realized the nickname Winters is better.  She went for a 2 mile walk with her mom this weekend!

SHREDDING NEWS - Friday, February 1th

Beezus has hit up 2 days now of cross fit Raleigh! She made the steps to get a running partner (she is partnering with someone she doesn't know so she cant cancel on them, very smart B!)

Winters, D-Thom, and Emily all did P90X this morning together, there was no school in DC today so afterwards Winters went and topped it off with 2 hours of tennis!

Lan-Man did a solid 45 minute lower body work out, but needs to rest up this weekend and comeback strong on Monday! He found a gym all the way out in Knabb, Utah! (see right)

Mike Kerner still hasn't quit the challenge, last year he quit day one at breakfast so he has already improved by 300%, he knocked out a 2 mile run/jog today.

Girls Night has also been doing some running, she ran 40 minutes this morning... NON STOP! TAKE THAT MIKE KERNER!!!!!!

Wendy Darling is sugar free 3 days now and killing it!

Baby Kate is really putting the work in! She found a place that does hydrostatic body fat testing in the middle of fucking nowhere and has a scheduled dip for tuesday! Way to go Baby Kate!

Molly has hit 3 yoga classes 3 days in a row! thats called a "Santa Monica Stretch Hat Trick!"

Meghan Fox is a bit under the weather and we wish her well! She plans on getting back to shredding in no time!

Heather is having no problems, she had to change her morning breakfast from cereal to a hard boiled egg and grape fruit but seems to be enjoying the change of pace!

Jessica Dean was on the P90X train today getting in some arms and back work!

Ashley and I posted a work out we did earlier and plan on getting in a 45 minute run along with some good rest this weekend!

And last but never least Mike Schvitz had a great work out this morning. He got in 20 minutes of weight training and a 40 minute run down to the San Francisco marina. He sent this beautiful pic this morning after his adventure! Thanks Mike!

SHREDDING NEWS - Thursday, February 17th

Vanessa hit up an aerobics weight lifting class. Her and Mitch both are working on Mitch's infamous catering truck (The Green Truck, see right) feeding Kobe Bryant and crew on a Mercedes commercial. Kobe, Mitch, and V-Rod should have no problems fighting sugar urges since all they serve is organic, green, and uber healthy!

Stephanie is in San Fran fighting urges at Starbucks this morning, she is ordering her lattes "sugar free" and her p90x is in full swing. Its Kenpo tonight!

Denlin is on a Lil-Wayne shoot all day with our good friend Cheese, shes fighting the craft service table... its a bitch that craft service!!!

Kool-Aid got in a 2 mile run followed by a 1 mile cool down walk with the dog, followed by a bit of abdominal work!

Word on the street is that Schwartz hasn't stopped doing keigels since yesterday, needless to say Beezus is excited to see him put those muscles to use the next time they see each other! He also got in a 6 mile run at 7:00 pace per mile. That Schvitz is a BEAST! cant wait to see him perform at the mudder!

Kane Train has a serious "EYE OF THE TIGER"

Girls Night is taking a off day from Kenny Kane since hes been giving her an ass kicking pretty much every day!

Speaking of Kenny, our good friend Taylor is debating hopping on board the "Kane Train" and going a few sessions with 100SFD's favorite trainer!

Lannie did some 'TRX band training, and an AB ripping sit up routine!" - get after in Lan-Man, you set the bar high today with those AFTER PICS from last year!

Baby Kate is up north killing the shred! She did Body Pump tonight, which is an hour long weight lifting class!

Jessica D knocked out an hour long yoga DVD.

And lastly,  I myself got into a yoga class and got my butt whooped up on! Alyssa at power yoga put a hurting on me! Then Ash and I took a nice mile long walk to get groceries and carried them all the way back.. hey, shredding is shredding any way you get it!

SHREDDING NEWS - Wednesday, February 16th

Addison Achord is in and if she can do it anyone can! The girl is 8 years old, and she if she can go without sugar anyone can! I received this letter in the mail today which states "I will be joining the contest this year" Addison gave up sugar for 80 days last year, and we all know how nice that must have been for her parents.. having a child who doesn't eat sugar.. blessing;)

People are shredding - i am starting a new thing where if you do a work out text me and i put it up everyday under the "News" posting.

Molly Sue enjoyed Tamals yoga class yesterday in Santa Monica

Baby Kate had a "hellish" bikram yoga class! that will shred you fast! its basically yoga in a room at 105'! Roy and I gave it a go a few months ago and felt like we got beat up afterwards!

Kool-Aid and Mike Kerner both got in a 2 mile run however as soon as Winters heard this she texted me that she was going out for a 4 mile run just to make him feel bad.

Mike Schwartz just texted me that he has done 500 keigels today and plans on doing 500 more before he gets off work!

Denlin is taking a few days to rest since shes been sick but is still getting in a good stretch

Jessica D is committing to a hike every Saturday and tonight is trying a "core synergetics" class

it seem that p90x is popular with the group this year!

Mike Kerner, D-Thomp, Emily, Jessica D, Steph, and Winters all are giving that a go.

Hop on board the Kane Train - Day 1

I put on the Kane Train t-shirt this morning to celebrate the first official day of 100 days of sugar free shred. My plan is to build a base strength for the next 2-3 weeks with basic gym exercises and cardio before shifting into more dynamic movements.
