Can Halloween be over already?
I do not need this candy in my pantry! Or at least I should buy stuff I don’t like. I have no willpower over mini candy bars. However, I am finally under 120lbs!! Here is the bad thing. When I eat mini candy bars and still lose weight, it creates a very bad situation for …
5.5 miles
I’ve run the same 5.5 mile loop three days this week. The first time I finished in 1 hr. 8 minutes, second time 1 hour 5, and this morning, 1 hour! A whole 8 minutes off my time! I’m way excited about that. Something that may have helped the run this morning was music. The …
Meal prep
Yesterday I brought my 50 pound chemistry book to the gym. While on the stair stepper, I read the entire chapter. Normally this task would take hours, but somehow, while working out, connections are being made in my brain! I completely understood the chapter. PLUS was able to memorize 10 reactions on how to turn …
At least I’m exercising
Well, I know I can be consistent with exercising, although Halloween candy is starting to get the best of me. I know better than to buy it so early. Its not worth it to have it staring at me every time I open the pantry. Yesterday I got a great run in. I know, I’m …
Apple Farm
Worried that I was too late in the season to take my kids to pick our own apples, we tried anyway. And yesterday was the best weather yet! So I’m glad we waited. Armed with baskets and bags, the kids had a great time finding just the right apples. They couldn’t even wait till we …
Enzymes
I just finished a 5.5 mile run! It was great. I ran faster than my normal pace (finished in 1 hour). Decided to experiment a little with enzymes. Dr. Fuhrman says, you don’t need to supplement with enzymes. You should be eating foods high in enzymes such as pineapple, but lets be honest. I can’t …
Early Halloween
We haven’t given much thought to Halloween costumes yet. But Nate and Erica were invited to a Halloween party tonight. They both dug through the costume box and came up with these: Very creative indeed!

8 Miles, no pain
I am so excited about our 8 mile run yesterday! I felt great all day. I wasn’t tired, I wasn’t sick, not even sore! Mid-summer, when my Thyroid (TSH) was 94, I would get back from a long run, totally wiped out! I would be cold all day, sore, and super exhausted. One night after …
