So, so sad to hear about Gary. You can't have been around 3FC for 5 minutes without seeing one of his upbeat, encouraging posts. I'm glad they'll have hospice to help but I feel so bad for his family.
Shannon - I didn't get a run in yesterday; due to a time crunch because I left work last, I had to do a DVD at home. So it's to the trail for me this afternoon! Which is fine, because it's warmer today than yesterday.
Hey, are you running the Peachtree? I got a number and will be running my first!
Oh, and I don't know that coffee shop, but I've heard of the pizza place. In fact, my (still sort-of) BF has mentioned several times wanting to actually do that challenge. Ugh.
Today is Thursday. I've been on plan, food and exercise, since Tuesday. And only NOW is my body starting to feel as "normal" as it does when I am on plan all the time. That's 3 days of recovery from an overindulgent weekend (when I still exercised, by the way). I'm sure I'm up at least 1-2 real pounds but haven't been able to face the scale yet.
THIS ISN'T WORTH IT! Why can't I remember that?
So, this weekend includes a dinner with a friend at a Mexican place (her celebration, her choice) and a weekend traveling to Charlotte to visit an old college friend. I will be on plan. These are great things, but aren't worth derailing my health over. I can make smart choices and I can certainly deal with not eating tortilla chips.
I'll probably need to check in here a few times to remind myself of the tough love.
Have a good Thursday, everyone! Off to run.
