Getting the Train Back on the Tracks
Monday, April 6th 2009
Finally becoming a habit to consciously eat again. I did well today... I am proud, and my body feels good when I put healthy things in it. The oreos I ate on Saturday just made me feel sick, sick, sick. 5k this Saturday, so I need to stay on a roll to be ready to feel good and do well. I have got to finish under 30 minutes this week. I am totally capable, I just haven't given it all I have yet. Still contemplating the marathon next February, so I better find the focus I had when I was trai...Home sweet home...

I get in trouble when I take days off from work. If I do not consume every moment in some type of activity, I am searching for something to eat. Today was tough... but I succeeded. A great 50 minute bike ride this morning, some sit-ups, and push-ups... and I kept my eating to a dull roar. A couple of calories over, but that was because I couldn't resist a banana after dinner. At least they were healthy calories. Maybe I will just do another 15 minutes of squats and stretches to eek out a f...Could have been a small!!!!

I am so mad at myself! I am starting a new job and had to drop by today to be fitted for some new uniforms. They gave me a small to try on and they were a bit tight, the mediums swallowed me! If I had not been a slacker for the last 4 weeks... I could have worn the small pants!!!! ARRRRGGHHH! Me, a small!!!! Unreal. So instead, I have to wear the mediums and they have to do all kinds of adjustments to make them fit properly. Ridiculous. Of course, I used to be an XL... even an XXL... ...Monday, February 9th 2009
Tonight was beautiful. I did three miles of interval training... my 1/4 mile sidewalk chalk was still there. My intervals are the mother of invention... no track, so I took my Garmin Forerunner out to mark my intervals. I pushed myself tonight... it was great, my average interval was 1 min. 56. I am working up to compete in my 5k on the 21st with a solid 8 minute mile. I think that is a bit too optimistic, but I can work hard toward that, and as long as I break my PR for 5k... 30:46....
Crazy, Ridiculous, Stupid Day!!!

I am in a class that I have to attend one week every six weeks for thirteen months. These weeks are always ridiculous. Everyone loses their minds while I am out, and I spend time fixing all kinds of screwed up stuff. Today was no exception... just a mess! I should go work out... but I just want to sit here and watch Biggest Loser!!! So now...I haven't written down anything I have eaten in days, and I haven't weighed in for two weeks now. I have crept up to 164... and I don't want to...
