So, my camera was out of batteries today, so no photos. Sorry. But this way I will tempt no one with taffy or granola bars:) Actually… I didn’t have a granola bar today! Hooray, but I did eat taffy. 5:00am Lower body workout. It was great. A bunch of walking lunges, squats, leg presses, and …

Monday Meals
I started the morning with an awesome Upper body weight workout in circuit fashion. I found the routine in Muscle and Fitness Hers magazine. It was quite fun, and made the time FLY by! I got home, and had breakfast with the kids. We had some cottage cheese pancakes. It was their idea to turn …
Tuesday
This morning I went for a run. I went about 4 miles, but it took me almost an hour. It was super dark though. I can’t wait till the sun starts coming up a bit earlier. When I got back, I had egg whites and a banana. Then I headed off to the elementary school …
2 Free days, but back on track
Saturday and Sunday I did not take pictures, track my eating, or eat every few hours. I’m not even sure what I ate now that I’m reflecting. But Monday was a new day. Part of my disregard for healthy eating and consciousness was that I got a letter from the U saying I was not …
Body For Life Day 19
Body for life day 19 (Friday). I woke up early for weights this morning. But first did about 15 minutes on the stair stepper, just to warm up and read more about Serine Proteases. But then my friend Eliece met me for the weights. We did barbell chest press and dumbbell fly Dumbbell shoulder raises …
Exhausting Run
11 miles is exhausting! If ever I sat down yesterday, I just wanted to take a nap. However it was nothing compared to the fatigue I felt after long runs last summer. Just before I had my TSH (Thyroid) checked. When I had a long run, I was not only tired all day, but I …
BFL Wednesday
Wednesday’s are tough for me. I leave at 1pm for school, and I don’t get home till 9:30pm. Luckily, Wade rearranged his schedule to be home with the kids on Wednesdays. Otherwise, it would not be possible! I started the morning with upper body weights at the gym. Ended with 45 minutes on the stairmaster, …
Body For Life Day 16
Monday was perfect! I ate everything I should. I even went to bed slightly hungry which made me feel like I didn’t “overeat”. So, for fun, I entered all my food on Spark People, and it came out to over 2000 calories! I was seriously shocked. For being 5’1, 2000 calories is pretty up there. …
Back in the saddle
I say, Back in the Saddle, because Sunday was a bit of a deviation. I kept justifying my eating by saying, “I’m only sticking to TRUE Body For Life protocol, and Sunday was the free day”. I spent the first half of the day fasting, and then I set out to make chocolate chip cookies …
