So, I tried the Biggest Loser trick and chewed Extra gum everytime I was hungry today. It worked pretty well. I have three different flavors in my purse so I have a nice selection to meet whatever the current need is. Now, unfortunately, they do not make chocolate gum yet... I wonder why not? Would that be disgusting? So, tonight is my rest night. I told my husband I feel kinda guilty about taking a rest night when I did such a bad job yesterday... It is so durn cold right now I just wan...Rough Day Ya'll

Ran Out Five Miles O' Stress
Monday, January 12th 2009
What a day! WHAT A DAY!!!! Oh my gosh! I just wanted to go back to bed and cover my head. Just insane. But I made it, relatively unscathed. Relatively... I did give in to Chinese for lunch instead of my salad. I did it somewhat responsibly. I started with a big bowl of hot and sour soup, then some light sushi, then some stir fried broccoli and about two tablespoons of white rice. If I stopped here, you could applaud me, but then I had a little bit of lomein noodles and some chicken. ...STARVING all day... what is the deal?

Fortunately, I am ending the day with 40 calories left in the bank.50 minute bike ride was good today, it was kinda rainy out, and I felt like a kid riding my bike through the mud puddles. Hey, nobody said that exercise couldn't be fun!
The runs are always outside. I have very young twin girls that I put to bed at 8:00 then I go out fo...

Twelve miles today... let me say it again... TWELVE MILES TODAY!!! Unreal what you can accomplish when you set your stubborn mind to a ridiculous goal
Completed it in 2 hours 19 minutes. Slow and steady may not win the race, but it will finish the race!!! The last mile was just awful, I am convinced that even my ears were hurting... Had to ice my knees a bit tonight, but bouncing back pretty well I think. I am still amazed that my cardio health is so good though. I finish these long r...
