Starting weight: 148.6
This is a scary number for me, it is getting incredibly close to my starting weight and it feels very far from my goal weight (which I did hit, and then gained from there). I will never see 165 again, I can’t do it.
I have the exercise thing all figured out, I am good at it. It is the diet part, I need to stick to eating things that are good for me. I need to stop...

I started eating this morning and I haven’t stopped.
I want to kick myself at the moment. It’s times like these where I just want to scream “WHY DO YOU DO THIS TO YOURSELF?!”
Sigh.
I have all of the tools at my disposal and I don’t use them properly or I sabotage myself.
It’s frustrating.

Wow, this could have been me saying this because I...

Reblog if running changed your life.
I changed my life through diet and exercise and then found running. Running then changed my life, showing me how strong and determined I could be. Running has increased my confidence level and showed me who I really am. I will forever be grateful for what running has given me.
mar-kicksass asked: I agree! Would a contractor think it was weird if I hired him and said, "Yeah I just need some more walls, please." :)

This week went well. I went over my calories a few days, some by a lot, but I tracked. I tracked every morsel that I put into my mouth. I also strength trained 3 times, played hockey 2 times, took a spin class 1 time and went for a walk 1...
Cardio or Strength?
For once in my life, I went with strength. I have hockey both tomorrow and the next day, so I decided to join my hubby for some lifting. He is a great influence as he is always encouraging me to lift to exhaustion. He would never let me strength train without giving it my all. By myself, I am a lifting slacker.
My Fitness Pal
I tracked my food all week! I have been so bad at tracking over the last 6 months or so that this is an accomplishment for me. Tracking holds me accountable, it makes me rethink that treat from the store or the extra serving of dinner that I know will put me over my calories.
Also, I took a spin class with my sister for the second time. My lady bits didn’t hurt near as much this time...

I have not updated in awhile. My September Challenge did not go well. I ran 7 days in a row, and then I rolled both my ankles stealing third at our last ball tournament of the year. It wasn’t until last week that I could even put my running shoes on without my ankles hurting. I am hoping to start running again though. I have 122km left to run before 2013 to reach my goal of 1000km, I need to get...
