Hello and happy Monday!
Last week was a doozy and I'm just so happy to have a new week. It's time to hit the reset button- especially with my grazing, out-of-control eating patterns that re-emerged this week. I am stressed at work and stressed about my foot. And because my foot has been acting up, I haven't been as active as I was all through the summer. I am hopeful that the MRI this Wednesday will shed some light on what's going on, how to fix it, and how to lessen the pain. I ran the Divas Half Marathon DC yesterday and it did not go as planned- but we finished! And it was Jen's first half! Stay tuned for the recap later this week.
Training:
Monday- Rest day
Tuesday- 45 minute run
Wednesday- Rest day
Thursday- 45 minute run
Friday- Rest day
Saturday- Divas Half Marathon with Jen
Sunday- Rest day
Total: 20.4 miles
Nutrition:
Panera Chai Tea Lattes, beef brisket, pulled pork, Nutella milkshakes, cereal for breakfast, french fries, wine, Starbucks coffees, KIND bars, and smoked chicken thighs. That's all I have to say about #eatallthefoods week.
BUT! I will say that I did pretty awesome during Thursday Night Football. Football games are pretty tough for me as they typically revolve around food. However, I made a huge plate of fruit, veggies, and cheese with a few greek yogurt dips to snack on in addition to the turkey chili Matthew and I made for dinner. Though I ate more than I usually do on a Thursday night, it's nowhere near what I used to eat during a football game.
Skinny Vanilla Latte, Special K Cereal, Veggies galore, crazy-good carb loading before Saturday's half. |
Weight-loss:
155.2 as of 9/10/14 weigh-in.
-.4 from last week.
-35.2 since January 2013.
-46.8 since heaviest; 202 in 2005.
A new week starts today! Let's get after it!
QOTD: What's your favorite part about Monday?
Can't wait to read your Divas Half Recap and hear about your MRI results. Sending good thoughts your way!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! I really appreciate the good vibes! This waiting game is killing me!
DeleteI have heard so many great things about those diva races. I hope to run one sometime. Just wanted to say I have met you before. Over shamrock weekend. I was the one with Christine from werundisney. I had no idea you had a blog as well. I found yours on a Friday five where the theme was great blogs to follow and you were on a few. Now that I know you have will. I will be sure to follow you. -Lacey
