Yesterday was an OK emotional day BUT I logged ALL my food and stayed in the 1,800ish Calorie Range....I feel good about that. After work I was tired and still a little sick but I did workout. Did very light cardio for 20 minutes and then a TRK class....love it. I think the exercise helped get things moving in my head.

This morning jogged 3.5 with my neighbor....it felt OK. I am tired. It will feel good tonight that my exercise is done for the day.

I am going to suggest a family...

Lots up ups and downs for me.

I am still holding on to this cold. I am getting better but it is zapping the energy out of me.

I did my 10K this weekend, sick and all, I ROCKED my pace!!! My best time for 5 miles was a 10:46 mile average pace. The 10K, 6ish miles, I did a 10:29 pace and it was the hilliest route I ever ran.

Last Wednesday, Thursday and Friday I took off work to have spring break with my daughters ages 9 and 13. We had a great time. We did not travel anywhere....just did stuff around town. I did not document any of these days. There is a part of me that wishes I would have and there is a part of me that was like....this was my vacation. Thursday morning I ran 5 milles and hit my personal best in time (4 seconds off!!!) I was so happy.

Only bummer, Friday I started feeling sick. There is ...

Yesterday was a good day. Not a green check. I did have a cookie that put me over but I am OK with it. I had a great workout yesterday. Did interval training on the treadmill and was able to go faster than I ever have on the hill intervals. It felt great. Then durning my workout with Scott (personal trainer) I was strong the entire time, I just felt great. Well that feeling continued today. The scale was very nice 222.75! Wow, last week it was 229!

I know this is a combination of...
