Coming Soon!
I’m in the process of organizing and getting more serious about my site here – so get ready for two pretty big, exciting things! 1. I’m adding a recipes section to my site. I am such a foodie and find cooking so cathartic that I spend hours in the kitchen every day…by choice. I thought … Continue reading
Seriously though…the storm is over.
The exercise storm that is. Kevin is also getting back to the fitness which is immensely helpful for me. In fact, this week we’ve started the infamous Jillian Michaels – 30 Day Shred. Dun dun dun…. The funny store behind it is that I bought it maybe 5 years ago. Well, I can recall doing … Continue reading
The Storm is Over Now…
I feel like I can make it…the storm is over now. I gained 4.8lbs in my 6 week hiatus. I am happy as a clam about it too. 100% okay with this. Additionally, my last official Weigh In at WW was in the morning before breakfast/any intake, in workout clothes and on a Friday (after … Continue reading
Get it together…
Dear Self, Thank you for actually getting your shit together yesterday. You’ve worked entirely too hard to just blow it now. xoxo and annoyed, Self Y’all, moving was a whole lot harder on my diet/exercise than I expected. I mean a whole lot harder. I didn’t just abandon the wagon for 14 days, I … Continue reading
I am not dead.
Life has just been crazy! Kevin and I went to the beach (Hilton Head Island) for 4 days where we stay at a beach front condo. While I ate like crap I stayed absurdly active. I got my ass up and out of bed despite how hungover I was every single morning and ran. One … Continue reading
Training, Bashing and Cakes
Two weeks training and feeling good! Started week three this week and I’m looking forward to it. I’ve been working on my swim and using a High Elbow Catch to improve my swim. Definitely different muscles, as my forearm was sore. Ha! It’s made a huge difference already in my time, so I’m quite excited. … Continue reading
Oh Body…
I lost 4lbs this past week! FOUR! The differences? I cut out high sugar fruit and Bourbon…and kept with my training. Saturday I drank Bourbon but still got up Sunday morning and rode my 10 miles! (Horrah for sticking to training despite a belly full of bourbon and 3 hours of sleep. FML.) Regardless, the scale … Continue reading
Good Problems
You know you’ve lost weight when… …your knee highs become thigh highs. What about you? The scale went in the right direction again this morning! I’m ecstatic! Perhaps the high sugar fruit really is an issue for me, despite not eating a ton of it. Crazy how something so small can effect you so much. I … Continue reading
Playing With My Food
I know, I know. Tsk tsk! But I am! I know WW is pro fruit and I would love to be pro fruit, but after looking at my tracker the ONLY thing I can possibly imagine contributing to the slow slow slow loss is the fruit/sugar content. So, this week I’ve cut out high sugar … Continue reading
