True Story

Last night I decided to forget mileage and time and just run for fun...
Crazy stuff
While I am running a small, petite perfect bodied blonde comes to run on the treadmill next to me.
Usually that would bother me
Not today until she was running for about 5 minutes
and the shirt comes off
So now she is in spandex, a tank top and a sports bra
Another 5 minutes passes
the tank top comes off
So now we are down to spandex and a bra
Another 5 minutes
She steps off the treadmill to take off her spandex to reveal little small shorts
then loudly tells her friend "why are those creepy guys looking at me"
well chica you asked for it


That's all but I thought it was a little much.

Goals

It's January 3rd
and I have yet to make New Years Resolutions.

I have been reading all over the blogosphere.
Almost everyone makes a health conscious goal...
I wonder how many of us fail.

However...
I will still succumb to the tradition.

Here's to 2012

1. Run at least a mile a day
(sometimes it's all you can do after a long day at work)
Body Pump, Zumba etc have become a habit,
running consistently I have fallen out of the habit of doing
when I am not training for something- but I have new shoes now.
It changes everything


2. Find out where my food comes from
If you have not seen this, go get Netflix.
It will change your eating habits.

3. Keep the sugar under control.

4. And get healthy aka. figure out my dang thyroid!

By George you've got it....

I FINALLY went to the doctor yesterday.
For those who don't know I have hypothyroidism.
Basically
it is "almost impossible" to lose weight
UNLESS
you go to a doctor who actually CARES enough to really look at your levels and gets you on the right medicine
Well at least we hope so..

until then I will still keep off the sugar and working out.


Sure is frustrating though...
eating 1200 calories a day
working out 2 hours a day
and gaining weight.

Duh

Not sure why it took me FOREVER to figure it out
When you lift weights as part of your work outs
AND you run you become... wait for it....
STRONGER
Which makes you
RUN LONGER

Duh L

Usually I have to fail at something
A LOT
before I figure it out.
While do you think it took me a while to find T?

FAIL

I was doing so well until this dang cookies landed on my desk
Yes, it is the size of a take out box
I had about three bites
Realized it was good
and stopped

but then took a bite of sees candy
just one, I promise.

It's ok...
always tomorrow!

SUGAR


So here I am, week 2 of no sugar
I have lost 4 pounds
Hate to admit this,
I think I was (am) an addict
I had headaches
I was moody
and I was TIRED

A little of that has past now
I do feel better when I run and have gotten less stomach aches
But during the holidays it is SO hard!!!

Next comes less carbs--- oh my!
