Making Progress

Just a quick post to let you know about today’s weigh-in. Click to enlarge. I am down -0.6 to 166 exactly so I’m happy to be making progress.  My goal for this week is to track EVERY single day because I am in the habit of not doing so on the weekends, which never leads [...]

Training Update

Hello!!  My posting schedule will probably be pretty erratic for the rest of the month because I’m working 60 hours/week for the next two weeks and then we’re off to L.A. for a few days. Despite the craziness of the past few weeks I’ve been much better at sticking to my training schedule. I had [...]

I’m a winner!!

 I’ve already written this post once and WordPress ate it.  Here it is again…a re-cap of yesterday’s eats starting with my mid-morning snack of an apple with a Diet Coke and Red Bull.  I had this Red Bull sitting in the fridge for a while and just decided to drink it.  I only drank about [...]

Bunko Night

Good evening!  I’ll try to make this short because I’m ready to relax in front of the TV.  This morning I got up at 6:45 and completed Week 3, Day 3 of the Bridge to 10K program. Before my run I had half an Arnold sandwich thin with Dark Chocolate Dreams and 1/4 of a [...]

We Will Now Return to Your Regularly Scheduled Posts

Good evening!!  I hope you all enjoyed my Operation Beautiful inspired Change the Way Your See Yourself post.  Thank you for your comments! I had hoped to scan in some old pictures to this morning’s post, but it’s not going to happen tonight.  Hopefully I’ll do it before the post is featured on Caitlin’s blog [...]

Catching Up

Hello!!  I haven’t posted in a couple of days, but I WAS taking pictures!  So…recapping back to Thursday. Breakfast was a whole wheat pita with 2 eggs, spinach, and jalapeno Muenster.   Lunch was a ham, chipotle jack, lemon squash, eggplant, and tomato sauce sandwich. And a Sparking Grapefruit Izze on the side. Midafternoon snacks [...]

Schmancy New Phone

Hey there!  I’ve been a major slacker this week with regard to tracking food.  Every day has been a long day at work and after work I’ve been preparing for Vacation Bible school next week. Last night, however, I  got to go out to dinner for Norfolk’s restaurant week.  We went to Freemason Abbey where [...]

The 14.06 Sprint Triathlon

Good evening!  Well…we made it back in one piece!  Actually, the husband had it easy on the drive home. No fair! Soo…We woke up around 5:15am, packed up, checked out, and headed off to the race site at the Freedom Aquatic Center on George Mason University’s Prince William campus.  I ate a cinnamon raisin bagel [...]

Triathlete

That’s me!! Just a quick post to let you know that I finished my triathlon. Chip time was 1:18:35! I am VERY happy with this time since my goal was just to do it in under 1:30.   I never imagined I’d do it under 1:20! We’re on our way home to Chesapeake now. Wish [...]

Race Prep

Good evening!  As you can imagine, I’ve got an early morning, so I’m going to make this quick.  After packing up the car, Josh and I made a pit stop at Subway for their new breakfast menu.  I ordered a ham, egg, and cheese on an English muffin with tomato and spinach.  Eh.  That pretty [...]
