Today was much better than yesterday.

I made up for the skipped gym workout and went for a run in the afternoon (5 km).

And to show you how incredible I am, I will tell you that I have just smashed my head into the fridge door so violantly that I started to cry like a baby and I already have a huge bulge on my forehead. 

I was trying to get raspberries from the freezer and thought I was pulling the freezer door but, stupid me, I was pulling the door from the fridge and it opened and hit me hard. Every day, I get more and more amazed at how more overworked I can get :/

Breakfast: smoothie with banana and strawberries

Lunch: salad with scrambled tofu and tahini dressing, a slice of rye toast

Dinner: quinoa veggie salad and one orange

Snack: a glass of wine - because I really, really needed it after the crash with the fridge.

Hope your evening is going better than mine :)

Another nice walk today! Lots of people out on the trail and I got some steps in before I head to work later today 😊

June 1, 2019 - Another 10K bites the dust (and we didn’t)!

This morning was the 43rd annual River Run, and for the third year in a row I took part in the 10K run. Last year I was joined my my grandson Jordon (left in photo above), and this year Jordon and I were joined by my 12-year-old granddaughter Savannah (right in photo).

As you see in the pic, we all finished the race and are wearing our medals. Jordon finished the run in 1:33:25, and Savannah crossed the line at 1:40:22. The old guy in the middle finished in 1:50:42... a bit off my pace from the last two years, so I will confess I am somewhat disappointed. But the important thing is we all finished the run, and I am proud of both of my grandchildren!

Perhaps it’s a grandfather’s silly pride talking but... I arranged for a ride home for the three of us after the run, and I see now I should have been more patient. Savannah was one of only two 11-12 year old girls running, and she had the better time... which means she WON her age group! I surely would have stuck around if I’d known they were going to call her name as the winner of girls in her age group!

Spring into 2019

Week One Progress Report

Week One of Spring into 2019 is officially complete! I didn’t do as well as I want, but I think that’s kind of the point? The only place for me to go is forward :)

Drink 2.5-3 L of water per day—I was successful only one day, the start of the challenge 😬 Like I said though, I can only improve!

Attend 1+ fitness class per week—I actually attended two!!! One on Monday (Zumba) and one on Saturday (Crossfit) 🤩

C25K—I did 2 out of 3 of the first week’s program. So, I still did some, but I’m a little behind 🏃‍♀️

Take my vitamins everyday—I took my vitamins 3 out of 7 days this week. Again, not perfect, but it’s better than zero times 🤷‍♀️

Do my laundry 1x per week—I will say that I did-ish. I sorted my laundry, and I was able to do one load. But my mom needed to do laundry, so I let her have the washing machine. But I fully intend to finish it this week! I did another load this afternoon 🧺

Wash my face 2x per day—I was able to wash my face in both the morning and the evening 3 out of 7 days this week. Again, not perfect, but better than just washing it in the morning 🌟

Overall, I have to be proud of myself. Lifelong habits aren’t made overnight 💓

It is a fabbbbulous Friday!! Last day of school before spring break - I broke 180 (again, but yay) - and I’m not wearing a tank top under my shirt today!! That’s an NSV, but it’s a big one! I’ve been wearing a tank top under almost every shirt since I was pregnant/nursing my first kiddo.......and he’s 10!!!

@saintsnnr @misstuesday22 @weirdturned-pro @yourfriendwren - what can I celebrate on this fabulous Friday for you??

Spring into Week 4/5/6

I am back after being a bit absent with my research trip! But I am back on land and thriving! Some fun things that have happened in my life since I have posted last:

 1) I was on a two week research trip (which I found out I do not get seasick), 

2) I celebrated my 21st birthday (on a dry boat then got to spend time out after),

 3) Applied to graduate from college 

4) May get offered a job doing some fishery stuff as well as some volunteering stuff

5) Finally broke my weight plateau (pretty sure I dropped down to around high 220lbs, but gained some back due to my celebrating but am back at 236lbs so still good)

Physical:

✔️ ✔️ - Get back to being on super strict keto = 7 days for all but the last week due to some drinking fun

✔️ ✔️ ✔️ Drink at least 2L of water a day = 7 days

- ✔️ - Go weightlifting twice a week (hard to do on a boat)

- ✔️ ✔️ Go spinning three times a week

✔️Go bouldering at least twice a month = Completed this for the month

✔️ ✔️ ✔️ Hit my fitbit steps and stair goals everyday (12,000 steps and 10 staircases) = ? (I forgot to wear my fitbit, so no clue if I made the steps or not, I totally made the stairs though)

Mental/Emotional:

✔️ ✔️ ✔️ Take time to meditate three times a week

✔️ ✔️ ✔️ Do one self-care thing (bath, face mask, movie, etc) a day

✔️ ✔️ ✔️ Learn to trust the process, meaning weighing in only once a week

✔️ ✔️  ✔️ Go out and do something every two weeks that is special for me

- ✔️  ✔️ Doing a minimum weekly check in post on tumblr

Springinto2019 check in!

I have been neglecting tf out of this challenge!

Actually.

I have been neglecting tf out of DOCUMENTING this challenge.

I have been eating small portions, slowly. I have been avoiding sugar. I have kept myself to 3 drinks per week. I've been trying my best to work out, and have had some really freaking active days.

And I have seen results.

See those jeans? Size 8. (That's why I'm signing an 8) I haven't worn an 8 in years! Portion control works for me. I wait to eat until I'm hungry. I stop eating when I'm not hungry anymore--not full, just not hungry.

It's taken me more than these three weeks to drop that weight (about 15lbs!). But being able to recommit to fitness with a tumblr challenge helped.
