Just a quick update. I am soooo busy.

Today I opted to not do upperbody weights at lunchtime and did a 30 minute run instead. The first 18 minutes were at a 9 minute mile pace (6.7 mph), then down to 6.5 mph, completing 3 miles in just a few seconds over 27 minutes. I'm confident I'll be running full runs at 6.7 mph soon. Then it will be on to 7.0 mph

Foods totally OP, Still living in the 160s Hooray,

Spring is here! Its 60 deg out today. Yeah!

Hello,

Yesterday I did a 12 mile run! It was sooooo wonderful. I went slow, it took me 2 hours and 18 minutes with a ~8 minute potty/water break at the 8 mile mark. But what's really amazing is that I wasn't sore or exhausted afterward. Dx and I took DS to the play ground and ran around and played. A neat thing happened. There are parallel bars for walking across on your arms. Dx said, "I wonder if I could even get across that" and he tried and did. Then he said to DS, "I bet Mommy can't make it across". Well of course you know I had to try, and I did! It was very hard but I was PSYCHED I could do it. But we stayed active for the whole day and today I still have no soreness from the run. Yeah!

Food isn't so good. I had a slip Friday night but I convinced myself it was "carbo loading for the run" But then last night ended with substantial snacking and I still have to get through today to end out my WW week. I am now over my points, having used all my flex. Why oh why can't I stop eating? I've cleaned out all my size 12s from my wardrobe so there's no turning back!

Actually, I know part of what happened. I really can't eat most zero point veggies without great gastro-distress. Friday I had a red pepper and carrots, both of which I've learned I cannot eat. That left me bloated and uncomfortable for the rest of the day. Which, oddly enough, makes me want to eat. I can't seem to eat brocolli, cauliflower, carrots, cucumbers, peppers. I seem to do alright with green beans, snow peas, zuchini and summer squash. But I really don't like having to limit my veggies like this. The Beano just isn't cutting it.

Well, its time for Mega Laundry. I didn't do anything productive yesterday, so today I have to buckle down

Sunny

Then he said to DS, "I bet Mommy can't make it across". Well of course you know I had to try, and I did!

Congrats on the run & on the monkey bars!! That is amazing! You're in great shape, Sunny!

The Beano just isn't cutting it.

Sorry it isn't working for you...it has done wonders for my Mom...now we can have dinner in peace without Mom "ripping good ones" in front of DD.

Sorry about your bummer weigh in, but that's an awesome run! Good for you!

Also, that is so cool about the monkey bars! I'm going to have to try that again someday too!
