I hate taking Ibuprofen. It usually upsets my stomach. But this morning… I was desperate. I’ve never been so sore after a workout (or at least in a long time!). I did lower body weights. Squats and lunges with weights and It’s killing me!! Plus I lost track again. If I get through the Masters …

7 Miles
I think I need to bring music running next time. Although I really love running in the quiet of the morning, I may have run faster if I had some tunes. I did run in intervals, but was somewhat sporadic about it. You know when you think…I feel great, I’ll run faster, and then, I’m …
How do people come up with these day to day titles?
Titles are somewhat easier on blog.superhealthykids.com, because those posts are actually ABOUT something! But the day to day life blogs, such as this… what do you say?? It’s Wednesday! Title enough? I don’t know what I’m talking about. I’ve been up since 4am. Now I’m waiting for my evening class to start, and so I’m …
Too much Pirate Booty
You know the saying, “If you fail to plan, you plan to fail”. Well, I failed to plan meals today. (My plan is usually different than my families meals.. for awhile). Anyway, I figured, I was going to be home studying all day. Full access to good healthy food, and 99% of the time, I …
Malnutrition Monday
We had a guest speaker in our Nutrition class today that talked about Malnutrition and international nutrition. The speaker was able to do her RD masters internship in GHANA! What an experience. Something a married mother of 3 in a masters program probably wouldn’t want to do. But, with Wade being a Nurse and me …
Losing weight, feeling great
My willpower has been amazing this past week (despite roll night). But I actually made rolls again last night, and they didn’t even tempt me. One of Joel Fuhrman’s blog posts about being addicted to food, really has stuck with me. When I’m feeling like giving in, I just remind myself it’s only because I’m …
Saturday- A moment of Weakness
These pancakes were to die for! They were from Tosca Reno’s cookbook that I picked up at the library. Cottage Cheese pancakes! So yummy! I put a dollop of yogurt on each one, with peaches on the side. Meal 2: about 10am. Protein powder, water, and frozen berries. Then I was getting really snacky, because …
Body For Life Day 6
Of course I’m not interested in weight loss, but body fat. But without the body fat scale, my current weight is 122lbs! I’m pretty excited. It’s hard for me to get under 125. I had to eat before the workout today, cause I wasn’t running till 9am. So, for running energy I had. 8am Grapes, …
Body for Life Day 5
I had a great workout this morning. I rarely do free weights, but I did a full upper body official body for life workout. The plan is to keep loading on heavier and heavier weight with each set, diminishing the number. So Dumbbell press, I started with 5 lbs, (weak I know), and did 12 …
Body For Life Day 4
Easy cardio today. Sort of a “rest” day if you will. 3 intervals on the elliptical for 30 minutes. Then walked on the treadmill for 15. My food choices today were spot on though. Horrid pictures of my 8am Egg whites with salsa, oatmeal with raspberries and protein powder. Sorry so horrible. 10am, The Chicken …
