BUT, I know what I’m up against, and I just have to bust my butt.
Today, I have a 4 mile run and strength training today, so lots to get my frustrations out on.
I guess that is the part that makes me so mad. On paper, I should theoretically be losing weight, not struggling to maintain.
Oh well… everyone is different, and at least I know I am healthy (that is me striving to be positive).
And the chances of me surviving a zombie apocalypse are pretty good.
Sooo awesome!!!!!
My last few weigh-ins have been awful! I don’t know what I have been doing wrong, but this month I am just going to focus on what I am doing right.
#1- Intermitten fasting 5-7 days a week. There is tons of new research out there about how this is very beneficial to hormones, metabolism, and overall caloric intake…. more on that later.
#2- no drinking until tailgate (and then very limited).
#3- consistent strength training, 2-3 times a week.
#4-consistent training runs and cross training.
#5- a clean diet! I need to get better with my semi-vegan ways. it is just a lifestyle that I believe in and that works for me, so I need to stick with it.
Hope you all are having a healthy August as well!

So awesome!
I cannot not to reblog
I am totally in love with hedgehogs…I want one for christmas.
but, my terrible first trail race is over, and I did about 7 minutes better than I thought AND came in 13th out of my age group. My time wasn’t great, but that’s not so bad, right? And all I can do now is get better.
So… I am already looking at other trail runs and I found one that sounds AWESOME!! I have really wanted to do a night race, and while looking for one, I stumbled upon the “Midnight Sasquatch 15k”! It is a trail run that starts at midnight and the course is lit by glow sticks. How much fun does that sound?
I also think that someday, I really do want to do a 50 miler. No timeline for it yet, but someday.
