Lots to write about. We have a computer virus so my husband has been online a few nights trying to fix it, but no success yet. But I haven't been able to update my blog and I've been wanting to write about so many things.
First, I was doing really well with food. Had that major breakthrough in my thinking. Then I had trouble on Thursday. I felt overwhelmed by things and I had icecream in the afternoon. Not a huge disaster or anything. But I felt myself being pulled back into that cyc...

Yesterday I rode my bike with the kids in the bike trailer for 12 miles. My friend who is doing the triathlon with me went too with her two kids in their trailer.
Now, the thing is, my friend is in as good of shape as I am. She is planning on doing all 3 events, where I am only doing 2. She is an excellent swimmer and that is where her strength is. I suck at swimming. In fact, last year we did the tri as a team and she did the swim, I did the bike and her sister ran for us.
Well, ...

I had such a nice day today.

I got up early and did my 30 mins on the elliptical. (I did it yesterday too!) Then after getting the boys around, I dropped them off at a friend's and I got a massage and a pedicure!

so I really needed one. Bad.
I had Qdoba for lunch

did not overeat

and then picked up the kids.
Then to...

My husband and I are in a really bad place right now. I've been wanting to write about it, but it felt overwhelming and complicated when I wanted to try. Then last night he was on the computer until late and I fell asleep on the couch.
I know it's our cycle. We are in the downward part of it. The cycle that Ashli so wisely pointed out before where things get bad, I finally say something and stand up for myself, he gets better for a little while, like maybe a week. Things slowly go downhil...

I got up yesterday and did the elliptical at 6am. I then did some segments of the NYC Ballet DVD workout. Later I went with my friend to do a bike ride with the kids in the trailer. We only did 4 miles, about 30 minutes. But I gotta tell you, it makes such a difference to pull the kids along.
Did decent with food, but I am still having trouble having only one serving of icecream at night. Working on that.
Today, I did not get up to do the elliptical. I stayed up until 12:30 and 6 ju...
