Day 864: Monday Yo

After watching an emotional episode of The Biggest Loser, I’m now watching a show about Walt Disney World. I’m so flippin’ ready to go back.

Hello my lovelies!

I know it’s been a while since I have posted, but that doesn’t mean I don’t love you and it doesn’t mean that I haven’t been keeping up my exercise and eating. (I fully recognize that was a quadruple-negative sentence. Dr. Mann, my Basic Writing professor would have hated that sentence….awe well.) Anyway, I have been pretty busy with just random things, but I am back and better than ever!

Let’s see…what’s going on this week…OH YEAH! This week, I’m running a flippin’ half marathon!!!!!! I still can’t believe this is happening!!!! Instead of doing massive runs this week, I’m taking it easy with a few short runs and a walk the day before. I’m not even playing racquetball this week which is saying something. At this point, it’s all I can think about (I’m kind of obsessed.) I can’t wait to see how I do and just to see my months and months of training pay off.

WANT TO SEE THE FFK IN ACTION? That’s easy! (That is if you live on the Florida Panhandle…) If you want to come out and support Erin, Megan and me during this race, go to http://www.tallahasseemarathon.com/ to find out more! What I can tell you is that the race begins at 7:30 a.m. on Sunday at Dick Howser baseball field at FSU and ends on the Mike Long track at FSU. I’m shooting to be done by 9:45 (so shooting for a 2:15 race time). Feel free to stop by and say hi or just look for a bunch of runners south of FSU and cheer us on!

So let’s talk food!

Breakfast: I ate a sliced hardboiled egg on Ezekiel Bread toast.

Snack: I had a packet of Justin’s Peanut Butter and a banana. Aka: the combination from Heaven.

Lunch: I had leftover chili (oh yeah…I had chili for dinner.)

Snack: I ate some Greek yogurt with mixed berries. Holy crap, it was delicious!

Dinner: We made a massive Cobb Salad with chicken grilled on the ol’ George Foreman (which is not a novelty grill, regardless of what Hank Hill says), sliced up egg, romaine hearts, spring mix, cucumbers, dressing, tomatoes, and a little cheese. Massive salads are the jam!

So that wraps that up. Pretty awesome day!

Tomorrow is another weigh in. While I’m hoping to just be in the 220’s this week, I’m SOOOOOO READY to break through the 227 mark that I have gotten to, but can’t get passed. I know it’s coming, but I just need to be patient and be better. Here goes nothing. See ya tomorrow.

Day 850: First Day of Being 26

Fact: 850 is my area code. Random.

I’m so stoked for Day 1,000!

So today was the first full day of being 26. So far, so good!

Let’s do a quick break down the day shall we?

Breakfast: A cup of oatmeal AND (yes…and) a 1/2 cup of greek yogurt with blackberries.

Snack: I had an apple and an ounce of white sharp cheddar cheese. So filling!

Lunch: I had leftover chili from last night and 1/2 cup of instant brown rice. Epic meal indeed.

Snack: I had a banana and a tablespoon of peanut butter. It was scrumtralescent.

Dinner: I made an FFK classic: Monterey Cheddar Turkey Burgers. We ate them without the bun and with Brussels Sprouts. It was sooooo good! I forgot how amazing those burgers were!

I know this is a short post, but I have a couple things I need to do tonight. Tomorrow is weigh in day! I’m not sure if my body has completely recovered from the combination of my birthday weekend and running a half marathon, but either way I’m keeping strong with the Skinny Rules and that will mean next week will just be even better! See ya tomorrow.
