Weekend Getaway

I went on a scrap retreat this past weekend. It was fabulous, and a great time to be with my gals and goof off. We had as much fun swimming as we did scrapping. I finished my goal of no sodas until this weekend. I had Sonic on Friday and Sunday, neither of which I finished. Sweet! The food was not all out junk, but not so clean either. Good thing JRo and I brought stuff for our green smoothies, can not imagine how tanked I would have been w/o those.

Hobby House Hill had a GREAT pool and 7/10 mile mowed path. We did water aerobics 3 times, Lynn was a fabulous instructor and told us she even gave us a moderate workout. I can't imagine what the hard ones would be like. JRo and I ran one evening, that was great. I kept apologizing to her the whole 1.6 miles about how slow I was, on and on. She finally got irritated enough w/ me saying that, and how she was breathing heavy. We sprinted to the end, and bonded!!! ha ha ha (inside joke) JRo finished out her run, and when she got back said, "You said you normally do about a 11:45 pace? Well look at this..." Folks, when I was running with her our pace was 10:32. Wow! I have not even run off the treadmill yet. What a fabulous surprise!!!

Now I am back home and hitting my plan hard. 21lbs gone does not give me a reason to slack off. I feel great, now I am ready to physically see more results.

Upcoming Goals: (have not figured goal dates yet)
off sodas again
run the entire MK5K in September
weights 3x a week
have a strong strong core
clean eating, and fun foods for the family
