Triggers
One of the great things about tracking (when I actually do it) is that I can see & recognize any behaviors or triggers that may lead me away from my long term goal of being fit & healthy.
I seem to do really good on Monday through Wednesday morning. Wednesday night I become a snack monster and I try to get back in control on Thursday only to fuck it up on Friday which bleeds into the...

I'm meeting friends for "a drink" at a bar/hotel...
I also don’t want to pay for a lame iced tea. Am I a weirdo?
To be honest, I don’t even want to go but I’ve been hounded by them to meet up.

Have a weird sunburn on my hands & my arms as a souvenir from yesterday’s game.
3 pound gain. What did I expect when I treated the whole week as a cheat meal.
Forgot my lunch at home.
Drove back to get lunch & checked to make sure my flat iron was turned off. Lunch was still forgotten.
I’m blessed with the life I have if these are my problems. Hope everyone has a...

Bueller...Bueller...
What’s the cut off age for people to get this movie reference? Today at work while chatting with some co-workers on Skype, I asked a question & for a while, no one answered. I typed in “Bueller…” and nada.
Same thing happened when I said “You got it dude!” a la Michelle Tanner to my supervisor.
Perhaps I need to catch up on current sayings by watching Honey Boo Boo or the Real Housewives...

I know I shouldn’t have done it since my weigh-in day isn’t until Monday but I got on the scale this morning and surprise! If you make good choices & track your food you will lose weight.
Does that mean I can take it easy & let loose the next three days? I don’t think so. It means to keep doing what I’ve been doing the past four days so that my weigh-in will...

In April I:
Ran some miles & completed my first half marathon.
Felt miserable & uncomfortable due to the horrible food choices I made.
Realized (again) that it isn’t about what I eat. It’s about changing my behaviors and how I view food.
Worked on setting a budget.
Plan for May:
Run some miles.
Work on changing behaviors by reaching out (WW meetings).
Be kind, rewind....

A picture doesn't always tell the real story
If you follow me on Instagram, you would have seen some of these pictures as a representation on how I spent my Saturday. I had a great lunch with my mom and sister in the city that holds my heart, I had some retail therapy and I spent the afternoon into the night with some friends sharing some laughs and making new memories.
What these pictures don’t tell you is how miserable I felt....

scaringmyfataway asked: Holy cow! I know your love for kombucha and wanted to share a find! Kombucha with chia seeds. Trust me. Go find it and drink the entire strawberry one. Oh my word. So good!
