I have a new goal in mind.  I would like this to be the first summer since I have been a mom that I do not have to wear a skirted swim suit bottom.  I like to do my part by being considerate of those around me, trying not blind anyone, so I will do [...]

I ventured out for a short walk before I had to pick up Penelope from preschool.  I felt just fine as I walked along, chatting with my friend, freezing our asses off.  I told her we were going to run to a sign about twenty feet away.  I couldn’t even make it halfway there.  I [...]

I concocted a tasty Mexican pizza, today and thought I would share the recipe.  1 FlatOut bread Multigrain and Flax  (100 calories) 1/2 cup reduced sodium canned black beans (105 calories) 1/4 cup Sargento’s Light Mexican cheese (80 calories) 1/4 avocado (70 calories) 1/2 TBSP light sour cream (10 calories) Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  [...]

It has been a week since I have taken off from training.  It has been a long week.  I don’t like how I feel when I am not able to work out whenever and however I choose to.  My energy level has been lower than usual and I don’t sleep as well.  I have missed [...]

I did something that I have never done before.  I went to Weight Watchers on Saturday morning for a weigh in even though I had devoured the four donuts and various other disgusting fat and calorie laden fare.  I had missed weigh in on Thursday since I had to have my leg looked at by the [...]

I have continued to be very honest on this blog, so with that written, I am going to confess that I have really let myself go this past week.  I haven’t followed an eating plan, I have eaten whatever I wanted, and some of those things that I have eaten have been in large amounts. [...]

No work out, today.  Ton of cookies eaten.  This pretty much sums up my day.  I am about to write out my eating plan for tomorrow.  The more I sit in pain, the more I feel sorry for myself.  The more I feel sorry for myself, the more I want to eat.  This all or [...]

I have my leg propped up with ice on my shin as I type this.  All seemed fine until I was standing in the shower, this morning and all of a sudden I had a sharp, stabbing pain in my tibia.  My first impression was that I had stretched in an awkward way in yoga [...]

I haven’t a clue as to what has been going on with me the past few days. I have been in a crappy mood, tired, and wanting to eat everything in sight.  I did inform my man that I really feel like I need a vacation.  I think he thought I meant a family vacation, [...]

Of course I have to address the Olympics.  I am an Olympic watching fool.  There is not one sport that I will not watch except for curling.  I even lived in Canada and I still to this day do not understand it, nor do I care to understand or watch it.  I would, however, play [...]
