My sister recently went through a big round of canning things and lucky me I got to benefit without doing any of the work. The main thing she did was a bunch of homemade salsa. We’ve already gone through a couple jars ourselves because it is very yummy. I was searching for something to useContinue reading “New Delicious Snack”

Hard to Eat Right
Sometimes it’s very hard to eat right in my house. The smell of these is driving me crazy.
Week Two Summary
It is a good thing that I started out with a good week because this past week didn’t see the results I was hoping for. I still did pretty well, but if I keep having weeks like this I won’t hit my goal when I want to. My workouts and running have been on track,Continue reading “Week Two Summary”
Will Power
Early on when I started running I found that I must not have the strongest will power. When ever I would run a loop that either took me past my house or past my car multiple times it made it very easy for me to stop earlier than I wanted to. I learned to startContinue reading “Will Power”
Week One Summary
It always seems easiest to take off weight in the very beginning when you start working I find. This week seems to be no exception. I’ve been working hard and making sure I eat right, except for a couple small lapses, but even those were minor really. This week I put in five 5k morningContinue reading “Week One Summary”

I had just hit my weight loss and fitness goal and set some other goals for myself. Looking back I’ve made good progress on my three other goal areas:Continue reading “One Year Ago”
Rest Day
This morning I was able to wake up early the way I like and I got out of bed to go for a run, but my legs and body were telling me otherwise. I was sore and cramped and I guess that makes sense, I pushed it hard for me this week. I’m pleased withContinue reading “Rest Day”
Thursday Morning Run
Early morning always used to be my favourite time to run, but the past while I’ve been having a hard time getting out of bed in the morning. This morning though I forced myself to get up and out the door. It made me happy, there are less people around, it’s cooler and I getContinue reading “Thursday Morning Run”
