pound-for-pound




Well, pound for pound challenge, welcome to my life. I guess it means business now... :) Today is my 4 mile run and tomorrow is a 5 miler. Let's see if my unexpandable lungs can handle it!

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend. Be safe & enjoy the heck out of the sunshine!

40 lbs. ~ prepare to be vanquished!

Bootcamp & an article.


Howdy, folks.

I’m out sick, but still counting my WW points strong! It’s boring trying to follow a diet – I’m at home so at any moment, the kitchen is just seconds away, pining for my return to the fridge. Luckily for me, even with the fridgey calling, I can’t do much damage. I decided about a month ago that I can’t eat bad foods if I don’t buy them. It’s worked so far. Yesterday I was doing every single thing I could to NOT go to Chick-fil-a for lunch. I won against my inner chicken demon – yay! I instead went with the ole’ Santa Fe Rice & Beans from WW SmartOnes. I wanted a little bit of something extra, so I ended up putting my R&B on a mini corn tortilla. It made it 10x the delish – just a thing maybe you could try if you want a little something different.

Check out Groupon.com today for a whole lot of money off a whole lot of pain. I personally am scared of Bootcamp – but good luck to those of you who wish to go. My problem is getting into a cardio routine. I still lift weights and
that is essential in weight loss, but I’m not going to sit around and ask Sergeant Slaughter to take a baseball bat to my hamstrings!

Here’s a little article I found on Twitter – read it!

Have a lovely, loserific day!
