What a week! I am embarrassed to say it was not a good week for me health/fitness wise. Started off Monday with a rather nice run, but then my foot swelled up and a visit to the doctor left me on the couch most of Monday and Tuesday. Of course that didn’t stop my appetite, [...]
TGIF! This week has flown by, mostly due to the drama over my swollen foot. I haven’t run much this week, but have been taking advantage of the elliptical and doing more yoga. I know a lot of people love, love, LOVE elliptical machines, but I just am not a huge fan. Some elliptical machines [...]
Went to a wine dinner last night – great wine and food, but had a bit too much wine (had an open bottle at home that I finished when we got home) and ate some pizza before practically passing out. Work up feeling blah and fat, ugh. Not hung-over, but blah. Oh well, jumped on [...]
I need to take it easy for a few days – the foot that got stung by the sting ray has an infection. I think running has made it worse, so I am going to stick to lifting and yoga for the next few days (the weather turned super cold again anyway, lol).
This morning I [...]
So far today is not going so well – my foot is swollen and hurting from the sting ray bite and my phone is not working. I have restarted it several times, but it just says “No service”. Argh, such a Monday. At least I am not hung-over – I had quite a few vodka [...]
Weight was 136.6 this morning, much better. Ran again this morning – it was cold – only 12 degrees, but that made me run faster – I did the 3.6 mile loop the fastest I think I ever have: just over 33 minutes. Had a veggie/egg white scramble with one yolk for breakfast, so good. [...]
Back from vacation, still in a bit of “vacation haze”. We had a really nice time, although the weather was not as nice as I would hope for when vacationing at a beach destination. We had some sun each day, but it was also cloudy and rained a little almost every day. We managed to [...]
Weight this morning – 130lbs! That was my goal weight before Cancun – I am so happy. Would still like a flatter stomach and smaller tush, but I am happy with my results – I have worked hard for it!
Crazy busy day! Getting the house and the dog cleaned today, lol. So,just the other night I was telling hubby how I don’t really like evaluating my progress solely on the scale, and this morning proved why: I weighed myself this morning like I always do – scale said 130.6 – yay! But that really seemed too low. So [...]
Finally got to run outside again! This morning the temperature was 22 degrees – warm enough to run! The air was a bit damp, which made it feel more chilly. I mostly ran on the streets because the sidewalks are all packed snow and ice. Wore my Yak Trax – worked good today. And I [...]
