Boot Camp - day 24

I’m getting ready to head out on my run this morning. Just 3 miles… it feels weird saying just to that. But three miles has become my default run. I think that bumps up to 4 miles on my small run days next month. And by November, I’ll be running 6 miles on my regular [...]

Boot Camp - day 19

I feel MUCH better this morning. A hint of a sniffle and my throat isn’t 100% but I feel lightyears better than yesterday. LIGHTYEARS!
Today is my last rest day. Tomorrow I run. Well, a light jog anyway. I’ve got to rework my schedule. I need to get back to exercising regularly. I miss it. And [...]

I Hate It When You’re Right

A.M. weigh in: 169.4
Upon reflecting, I would guess there has been more snacking during the day than I’m probably copping to, at least consciously. Especially at night. It’s like I do great during the day (or pretty OK) and then at night, I just get a bit hungry. And next thing I know, I’ve eaten [...]

I’m totally high… and not in a good way!

A.M. weigh in: 167.2
No.Words.
UPDATE 2:09 PM
Thanks, Patty. I’ve bookmarked that blog to come back to regularly. I especially like her Mojo Mondays. I’m going to subscribe to her feed. Funny thing, she lives here, in Marin County! Go figure!
Today I feel blah. Maybe later tonite I’ll write more about it in depth. The sum of [...]

Maybe the Slowskys have the right idea

A.M. weigh-in: 160.6
Slow and steady wins the race, right? RIGHT??!! I just have to keep reminding myself that it’s OK to lose .2 lbs a day. That is something to celebrate. Unless Jillian Michaels is residing in my house, it is foolish to expect a pound a day weightloss. Good. Any loss is good. Losing [...]

ARGH&#*(&#@$!!!!

A.M. weigh-in: 162.2
Why can’t I get my act together??? I just can not seem to get my head back in the game. I feel totally out of it.  I am not willing to give up, not officially. But my actions seem to indicate that I already have… about two months ago. I’m up almost 20 [...]

Back in the trenches, take 2

A.M weigh-in: 160.4 (oh, that’s just so awesome! AWESOME!! blahhhhhh!!)
So, yesterday was officially the worst first day back on track in the history of first day back on tracks! It started with a peanut butter cup for breakfast and ended with Taco Bell. There were many cookies, Junior Mints and even a shared order of [...]

TALK ME DOWN!

A.M. Weigh-in: 150.4 (sooo not right!)
Today I woke up feeling SO off. I had a horrific nightmare. HORRIFIC. I won’t go into it, but I can’t remember having a nightmare like that since the year following my dad’s death when I was 17. So when I woke up this morning, I was shaken, really upset, [...]

The Altoids diet

A.M. Weigh-in: 154.0 (seriously SERIOUSLY???!!)
Skipped breakfast this morning and have now eaten most of a box of chocolate covered creme de menthe Altoids while drinking a Diet Coke. Can we say wholesome, clean, all-natural foods? No, apparently, we can not.
My arms are sore from my upper body work out at the gym yesterday. For those [...]

Saturday Sucktacular

A.M. weigh-in: 146.4 (go raisinets and sunchips!)
Ugh - today is biting BIG TIME! I’m at work and filling in the miniatures department ALL WEEKEND!! I am SO behind in shipping out my wholesale orders from the show a week ago, orders keep coming in (which is fantastic, don’t get me wrong) and I can’t work [...]
