Marathon Mom

Starting weight: 150.4
After yesterday’s bingeout, I should be grateful it’s not higher… should be, but I’m not. I’m mad at myself for lapsing back into the 150s, even if it’s just by .4 lbs. I feel bloated and greasy and just plain gross this morning.
I was going to hit the treadmill this morning, but I [...]

Today isn’t sucky, but it isn’t great either. It’s just… meh. That’s how I feel. I’m tired, run down, and don’t feel like getting anything done. Not really the productive attitude I need at work right now. I’m ready to call it a day… and it’s only 10:45 am. I’ve been here for a little [...]

A.M. Weigh-in: 147.2
I’ll never get caught up on everything, will I? I’m beginning to face that little piece of reality. I just feel behind all the time, too bad all my theorhetical running to catch up isn’t burning any calories! I’d be at goal weight in no time!
My birthday is in exactly 6 weeks from [...]

I was supposed to start taking Saturdays off in January, after the holiday rush. Well, with the way things have worked out with doctor’s appointments, mini-trips, and major trips I’m way behind on my work and hours, so I’ll continue to work both weekend days for the next few weeks until I get caught up. [...]

As promised, here are some pictures from my trip to NYC - just a few highlights. Biggest Loser is on and it’s GOOD!!
First day, we went to the The Met. Totally awesome. No mummies rose from the dead while we were there. Very disappointed that Brendan Fraser didn’t come swinging in to save the day. [...]

And then go away again for who knows how long. But at least we have sun today. I’ve missed it! I swear I have that seasonal depression thing - I just can’t handle the grey skies for too long. Makes me want to curl up in bed, read and eat warm comfort food… or cookies… [...]

A.M. weigh-in: 150.4
OK, so I never got back to my post yesterday. And I’m not going to get a chance to upload pics or give much of a post today. It’s already 9:30 pm and I need to head to bed soon. I’m trying to get back to exericising. I admit that I’ve used my [...]

A.M. Weigh in: 152.2 (not bad considering, let me tell ya!!)
We got back from NYC yesterday afternoon. I’m still trying to catch up on everything and I’m at work right now, to boot. I’ll update in a bit with pictures, once I get home (while watching the Oscars!) We had a FAB time! But I [...]

A.M. Weigh-in: 148.4 - considering everything, that is not horrible.
Thanks for the well wishes, everyone! My flight takes off in approximately 8.5 hours in the middle of a huge storm. I normally travel during the warm months, weather hasn’t been an issue. I’m trying not to stress… oh great, Good Morning America is opening with [...]

So, after being like 4 days late, TOM finally is making an appearance. Which helps explain the hormonal hell I’ve been through the past week (it’s always worse when it’s late, it’s like my PMS goes into overtime!) But the worst, the very very very worst part of it… my two seriously heavy painful days [...]
