Mm:  cheesestick, almonds
Lunch:  ww tortilla w/chick and avocado, pineapple
Mm:  green smoothie
Dinner: pinto beans, smoked sausage

Two for Tuesday

Today's workouts DONE!  One Insanity dvd, One 40 minute bike at the gym.  I thought I would pick an "easier" Insanity disc.  HA HA HA   The cardio max recovery is just as hard as the other ones.  I couldn't even do the whole thing - but it was still a great workout.  All in all I am happy.

Food:
1 pancake
2 C coffee
1 homemade protein bar
1 chicken wrap
3 french fries
can't remember my afternoon mid-meal
roasted corn
chicken avocado wrap
2 small handfuls of almonds throughout day

Hard Run

Well dear Trainer, I did the run.  Would you be satisfied if my run interval was a minute less than you said, BUT I did all 5?  Good.  It takes me a long long time before I really start to enjoy - no, like - no, tolerate running.  And I tolerate because I can feel my fat bouncing away.

Tonight, the eldest boy and I cooked dinner together.  We made sweet & sour shrimp, fresh pineapple and all.  Oh it was so yummy.  And quite the easiest meal. 

A great way to start the week.

Keep checking back.  This is the best way for me to hold myself accountable.

And so my journey begins again...15 weeks ago!

A small recap, but no "catching up." 
I started this blog way back when, look in the archives if you need a date!  It was a journal for my journey to losing 50lbs.  Well I almost achieved in, then I got the exciting news I was pregnant, then tragedy struck and we lost Selah at 18weeks.  Between now and then, it has been a journey to mentally regain my self worth and determination.  Yep, it's taken awhile.  But God has moved my life in insurmountable ways.

15weeks ago in walks, Trainer.  It took way longer than I wanted to get back in the swing of daily workouts and to actually lose weight and see change.  Around week 13 this started happening.  I'm excited!

So my journey begins again...want to tag along and see what happens?
