Feeling a little psychotic....

This weekend I have been fighting off a cold that has been giving me it's best shot. For the past few days I have had that 'run down' feeling and I feel like I am right on the edge of feeling completely horrible.

Having said that....NOT running since Wednesday (3 days, ack!), I am feeling somewhat psychotic. I am not well and you should avoid me unless you are ready to have me give you that 'look'. If you know exactly how I feel....nod your head.

I will be ok though...no need to call 911.

I am dressed, hydrated and am ready to hit the pavement for a light run.

All should be well in the world in about half an hour...peace will be restored to the force.

 Afoot and light hearted... 3 years post WLS I'm really really bad at this personal blogging thing. As part of my role with DriveWorks, I help to contribute to our blog but for some reason my personal blog just gets set aside 'until later' - which doesn't happen but once every year (working on this!) As stated in an earlier blog post, on July 5, 2017 I made the choice to take my life and my health back by choosing to have weight loss surgery (Gastric Sleeve). For almost my entire adult life leading up to that day, I fought a losing battle to become the person I knew I was meant to be. At 242 lbs I ran my very fist half marathon - I had been running for so many years and I was what I used to call the "fittest fat girl" you would ever know. Try as I would, I simply could never get the nutrition side of the equation to balance the physical fitness side.  Once I decided to go forward with the surgery, I've never looked back nor have I ever questioned my d...

Weekly Weigh-In Day

For a long time, I used to attend WW Meetings. They were on Wednesday evenings and I absolutely LOVED my leader Maryanne. My schedule changed and I started working with a Personal Trainer on Wednesday nights, so I am not doing the WW thing on-line only. Now as a point to consider - I lost 70 pounds doing WW online with no meeting, so I am a fan of the online environment so don't get me wrong. It's there for you when you have a question, and when you weigh in it does provide feedback. It fits into my schedule - anyone that 'gives up' on WW because they can't make a meeting should use this tool and stop making excuses. Thursday is now my weigh in day. Yesterday, I blogged about starting to reduce the amount of bread/flour/refined sugar carbs I was ingesting and so far things have been ok - I don't find that I miss them too much (even though I may still occasionally look longingly at the bread bowl) It was NOT being done to lose weight...as I still use the WW...

The Weekend Cometh....

For those of you that don't know....I use the Weight Watchers Program to help cultivate my healthy lifestyle (notice I didn't say the "D" word) However, I don't count "Points". A few years ago WW began a program called Core (now it's called Simply Filling, whatever). This is a program that digs into the root of healthy eating and teaches us how to eat healthier, whole foods and to learn what the meaning of "satisfied" really feels like. Some may think it's restrictive, others may think it has too many rules....but I was being obsessed with points and all that comes with it so when I read about this program I tried it and it has been very successful on my journey....you can read more about it on the WW web site if you want. But let's talk about the weekend. Monday through Friday, I am THE poster child for the program. I have a lunch box packed with everything you can imagine as being healthy. I purchased nice little containers ...
