Well, I know very well what I have done. I have completely ignored the fact that I MUST COUNT CALORIES the rest of my life. I tried to convince myself that if I was running in 1/2 Marathons, I could eat whatever I wanted. NOT TRUE! I still have a very slow metabolism and gained 20 lbs back in the last 6-9 months...scary!!! Well, I am back and plan to be here everyday at least to log my calories.

I completed 3, 1/2 marathons in the past 6 months...last one in March. After that, I pretty much stopped running...what happened? burn out? I don't this so. I think simple frustration at seeing the scale go up knowing I was literally exercising (what should have been--my butt off) LOL! NOT so when you eat as much and drink as much of whatever you want. My calorie consumption probably averaged 2000 + a day. What a mess! This body has to be around 1300 even when exercising.

OK, enough for tonight. I also got way to consumed in this website...so much so, that when I left it....I pretty much left logging and everything. I have to find my "happy place" with all this. I am back to a size 10-12. Was at a size 8-10. MUST GET BACK! I AM NOT HAPPY WITH ME AT THIS SIZE! I have very tiny bones and really need to be much smaller.

Back on my daily journey! Would love to hear from old and new friends!
