MFP linkup, weigh in, totally random post

I haven't posted in a while, I just haven't been feeling it, not sure why. 

 

But I wanted to keep up with my weigh ins that was supposed to happen on Wednesday so that I have it somewhere. 

 I weighed in on Wednesday at 176.4 lbs. 

 Down from last week but still up from where I was, I am still fighting to lose the weight I gained back over the holidays. 

The scale is moving down and that is all that really matters.

 

2 week MFP Challenge

 

I attempted Lora's MFP challenge but FAILED. 

 I kept meaning to but never started logging until yesterday so I have made it two days. 

 I usually get in a habit of doing it everyday then something happens and I miss one day then weeks go by before I get back at it. 

 

 I am recommitting now. 
 

 

An update with my 10k training, it is going good. 

I can't remember if I posted that I was starting the training schedule over. 

I had started before Christmas but then I struggled a lot with the cold weather and running, I HATE the treadmill. 

I think that I have it figured out now, I run two times a week on the horrid treadmill and then my long runs are outside. 

There are only three running days in this program, so if I get the chance I ditch the treadmill and hit the pavement. 

 It all depends on whether or not my husband is available to watch the kids so that I can run in daylight, I hate it that the sun doesn't rise till after 7am, I was in such a good routine of running at 6 before everyone was awake. 

 

 

Today I swam some laps for the first time in a long time. 

 I need to fit more swimming in so that I am prepared for the Triathlon that I signed up for, it is on March 24. 

 I am petrified and super excited all at the same time. 

 

 

I think this post was random enough, I hope to post more regularly starting next week. 

Even if I have only 23 followers I love how I feel accountable to all 23 of you. 

  But I am also a little afraid to have any more followers, I don't know, I'm just weird.  I put all my fat pictures and my weight on here so more followers means more people seeing.

 AHHHH....SCARY!

 

 

Have a great weekend!!

 



Check it out, I won! Oh, and my plan.

Winner Winner!!!

 

That's me! 

I won an awesome giveaway hosted by Meredith over at Eat, Drink, Run, and Be Mommy.  Meredith creates and sells amazing cards at her etsy shop Cuddlebug Cards.  Please go check them out, seriously I wanted to pick all of them.  She also makes the coolest things called skinny labels, they are like your basic return address label but they wrap around the back of the envelope with cute designs on them.  Plus she has a ridiculously fast turn around, I emailed her this afternoon with my pic and she already sent me the proof of my card, which is perfect, she is truly talented.  I can't wait to see my Christmas cards in person.

I am so excited!

 

 

Back to exercise, here is a copy of my 10k training.  I was planning on starting this week, as in yesterday.  I did my weights and stretching yesterday but I could not fit in my run today so I bumped the start to next week.  I wanted to post this schedule so that I feel more accountable.  So please feel free to yell at me if I slip, I am sure to need a good kick in the butt.
