Bad Food Day!

I have no idea what happened yesterday, but it was my worst food day! I was starving all day and it was 102 outside so I couldn't (or chose not to go run) because of the heat, so I went WAY over my calories! I couldn't stop! But today is a new day and I will get back on track! I so want to go weigh myself and measure but I told myself to only do it once a week so if it goes up or down I won't make myself crazy but I really want to lose the weight and inches!!! So I am just going to make today really count. I know it's going to be tough because my oldest son has a baseball tournament all weekend so I will be at the baseball field! Also, my sister-in-law is having a BBQ on Saturday that we are going to in between games UGH and she makes so many awesome not so good for you foods!! And there will be BEER. I have not had a beer since Tuesday. I will be packing a cooler with good food so I don't hit the snack bar! And I will not have a beer I will have a Vodka and lemonade! Keep your fingers crossed!

Today didn't make me happy but I pushed through

So I was going to run with a friend tonight but he had something come up so I was on my own. It felt good but I was not happy with my time. But I got out there and did it and so want to do better tomorrow. I have stopped my beer for the past 2 days, and that may not seem like a big deal to you butI love my beer. But that love is what got me here, and oh yeah and doing nothing for 20 years, lol. But I have found that I love vodak and crystal light lemonade. It has no carbs., and tastes great! Perfect summer drink. I just want to get in shape. So after my run I came home, cooked dinner for my family, smoked sausage and potatoes, but I had a banana, cottage cheese, and 4 peanut butter crackers. I am still under my calories for the day but over on my protein. After that I did 3 reps of 25 of sit ups, and arm curls and 3 sets of10 push ups. I think I over did it on the sit ups, but I will get over it :) Last night I really wanted a brownie but resisted thanks to people I have never met but are in this weight loss challenge with me :) I woke ul feeling great about it, but I expect more from myself. Tomorrow is a new day where anything can happen! Thanks for reading!

So it is looking like I have to stop during the week so that my inches with start coming off!

Along with my weight every Monday I will be checking these to see if I drop and inches anywhere, please God I better No more pics until I reach my goal!

I totally forgot to post this but I have achieved one of my goals to do the 10K in my town!! I did and completed with a decent time, The Rockdale Ramblin Run on April 14th! I was 33 out of 54 women my age, and 379 out of 562 people total, 1:01:43 was my total time with a pace of 9:56 . i was super excited after the race and totally celebrated that night!!!

Lets get this restarted!!!

So I saw this post on my MRTT (Moms Run This Town) site to join this weight loss challenge (Run With Jess). I want to drop about 13 lbs so I thought I would do it. Now I am feeling nervous and scared because I have to hold myself accountable to do it so I don't look or feel like a quitter to my boys. I have never been able to stick to a diet which is why I am nervous. I also have been very lazy with my running because I love running in races not the training, and we have been tight with money so I haven't been able to do that many. But I WILL DO THIS! I will do this for me first then my husband and my boys! I will start running 3 times a week! The town I live in has tons of really hard hills so basically that is what I have to run all the time! UGH!!! I hate hills and they totally mess with my times! For those of you that don't know me I am SUPER COMPETITIVE!!!! So a bad time on my run = bad mood after, not a good mood like you should have! Soooooooo I have to get over it, run, improve and get rid of this beer gut! Am I giving up my beer? No just going to work my ass off!!!! Literally! So this is my new info Your BMI is: 22.9 Target weight range: 101.2 - 136.7 lbs Current weight is 125 lbs. Height is 5' 2"
