Today was a sad and shocking day.  My friend stood outside of her house in the snow watching her house burn.  I am so sad for her and her family.  I am so thankful that she and her family are safe, but I cannot imagine what this is doing to her emotionally.  She just had [...]

I know that what you are about to read is going to shock and amaze you.  I ventured out, this morning before the snow began to fall.  I let my girls each get a donut at Krispy Kreme.  I did not get a donut, not a regular sized donut, not a mini donut, not a [...]

Let me just start out by writing, whoop whoop!  According to the WW scale, I am officially down 71 pounds.  Yeah, baby, 71 freakin’ pounds.  I was kind of dreading getting on the scale and I was tempted to put it off another week, but I am so glad that I went.  I am glad [...]

I thought I would complete two and a half miles on the elliptical and then run two and a half miles on the treadmill.  I completed the first, then when I got on the treadmill, my hip began to hurt about half a mile into my very slow run.  This is my second day that [...]

My back is feeling much better, today, but I still do not feel one hundred percent.  I met Noel at the pool for a swim.  For some reason, I just didn’t feel comfortable going to swim at the pool alone for the first time.  I was worried about having to share a lane with someone [...]

My lower back is still sore from my long run on Saturday.  There was no way for me to run my three miles, today.  I opted for the recumbent bike, which I rode for about 25 minutes.  I hit the yoga mat after that.  I needed that yoga class, today.  I am really glad that [...]

I have taken the time to reflect over the past week.  I have managed to maintain my weight and not gain an ounce even though I have eaten out a lot, this week.  This is a rundown of how often I ate out at restaurants: Tuesday: Lunch with my friend, Liza (J. Christopher’s) Meal: scrambled [...]

I attempted to run seven miles today, but it did not go as I had hoped it would.  My legs are still very sore from Thursday.  I think running two consecutive days on pavement now is something that my legs have to get used to.  I took it really slow, this morning and walked about [...]

       I came across a few photos, today that I have to be very honest; shocked me.  These photos were taken less than two years ago. I was really upset, this morning when my pants were snug in my thighs.  I can see the definition and feel the firmness in my thighs, but I [...]

I did not have a good run, today.  I ran in the rain with a sore knee and sore shins.  My rain jacket was too big (I wore this in my fat days), so the bulk of the jacket moving all around with my keys and big ass iPhone were being jostled all over the place [...]
