WIW...Lacey

Well, I do need to keep at this. I need some sort of accountability or I will eat ten doughnuts a day and balloon to a size where not even the ocean can hold me.

This week however has been bad. I have had an overwhelming desire to eat chocolate every second of the day. So bad that I even had a bag of chocolate chips I was pouring into my mouth.

As for the weigh in. I weighed 151.4 this morning. I am pretty sure that is a gain from last week. Dang breaking that 150 lbs barrier alludes me again.

I need to be better. Here is hoping for next week.

All right Lace lets keep at it...

Starting weight: 160 lbs
Weight today: 150.2 lbs
Weight loss this week: around 1.2 can't remember last week...
Total weight loss: 9.8 lbs

Not trying really hard at this point. I still watch what I eat but I also eat what I want. Portion control mainly.

I ran after a week and a half off ( to rest my IT bands) 3 miles but at a quicker pace. I did 3 miles in 30 min which I normally do closer to an 11 min mile. I am feel REALLY tight this morning. It is becoming more of a reality that I may not be able to run this race. I will do what I can...it is just disappointing knowing I am physically in shape to do it, but my injury is holding me back...whine whine.

Tired!

Yes I am tired ...my new schedule is kinda crazy and I work 10 days in a row and with my commute I am pushing 12 hour days which leaves little time to get everything in (yes I know I don't have kiddoes but I do take care of David) and not be dog tired...I just don't want it to sound like an excuse...I haven't given up I just have to figure out what I can do to fit it into my new life. Once I do I fully intend to get back down to where I want to be. I am so proud of the girls for sticking to it and meeting there goals..if anything I hope that I jump started this whole thing :o) .I am sooo jealous! They both look fabulous and I hope that I get there sooner than later...there are many reasons I need too and I hope I can figure it all out. I guess there really is no need to continue our blog at this point ladies but lets continue to talk about it and motivate each other any way we can. Love you girls!

Total weight loss: 23.4 lbs

Not great but at least its a loss. I was hoping for a little more, but for Seth's bday we went to dinner and there were very little healthy meals on the menu. I did my best but I am sure it was like a whole days worth of calories.

On a side note I have now done two P90X workouts and I only did them at about 50%, maybe less, and holy moly it is so hard and am so sore...ouch.

I cannot wait to break the 150lbs barrier. I want so badly to be in the 140's. But I will have to say it is nice because most of my clothes fit again. I cannot even wear some of the clothes I started out in because they fall off and that feels great!

Well I think this is it folks. The goal was to lose 10 pounds. Although I have not hit my goal I still feel pretty good. This weight is actually probably more manageable for me because I can have a life with out counting every single thing I put in my mouth. I will forever be curious about what my body would look like 10-15 pounds lighter however I don't want to torture myself either. I can maintain this weight even if I don't look like a super model. I also feel pretty good that I can get into my old clothes and that was my main purpose.

My running has come to a slight standstill because of my IT band/knee pain. On Monday I ran 7 miles and wanted to cry on mile 4. I walked and even called randy to see if he could come pick me up. (I ended up walking in out though....) For now I am stretching a lot and doing palates to strengthen my hip flexers. I am determined to get better before race day put I don't want to push it either.

As for Cass and Lace, Cass says shes too tired and Lacey should be so tired I don't know how she has time to breath....so not sure this will go on for much longer. I guess we will go out like LOST. (Not wanting it to end but wanting to know the end result.)

There was no hope this week with Abby's bday and lots of things wrapped in bacon and then mothers day. I didn't expect much different.

I am NOT weighing in today. I know I did horrible this week. Having company in town is really hard because I can't just eat on my own. Food= being social, and I hate that. Plus I feel like a big fat cow because my RED STAR should be here any day now. I refuse to punish myself by getting on the scale. Lets wait until next week. Exactly 1 month until my race...highly motivated again.

Also I have had to take a mini break from running so I don't blow out my IT bands. The only way to not injure myself more is rest. On Monday by mile 6.5 I wanted to cry my knees hurt so bad. I don't want to be like that for the race. So, there you have it.

I am not sure of anything. I don't know what works the best for me. I am happy it has been really slow so that way I know I can keep it of f better. I am up to running 9 miles and my knees are starting to feel it. I just try and ice them really well. I am such and old lady. I have been trying to change it up a little by doing palates and p90x on my off running days. The weather has been decent and I discovered that I LOVE to run outside! Who knew?

Holy smokes I finally hit the 20 lbs mark. I am so excited. However again I think this is slightly skewed since my nose has been clogged several days and I couldn't taste anything so I ate really healthy.
