Fasting

Today I am fasting, after reading on how or IF I can considering that I run.
So I decided on a liquid fast to which I can include smoothies....anything liquid.

I decided to fast on my rest days which are fridays.

Breakfast:
Fruit smoothie-3
Water-0
=3

This was incredible!
2 frozen chunks of mango
2 frozen chunks of pineapple
1/2 c light frozen yogurt
3/4c reduced fat milk (out of fat free)
YummY!

If you don't count points the total's were as is:
185 calories 5.5 g fat and 5 g fiber
If your watching your sugar I'm not 100% on that I came up with a total but it didn't seem right for 4 chunks of frozen fruit and Light frozen yogurt thats only 8 grams per 1/2 cup.
If you want to know the sugars let me know and I'll gladly recheck.


Lunch:

Another fruit smoothie same kind-3
Water-0

Might take a brisk walk today...depends how the weather is and if Nick comes home at a decent hour.

I CAN DO IT!

I am going to do another 5K next month (yay for Oktoberfest!) and a half marathon this December so I have to stay on track!
I have gained weight back and not too thrilled about it.
One can run so much but when your guzzling soda, its does me no good to run right?

Also I am going to try and cut back on diet sodas too. Not making any promises but I am going to REALLY try.
I am switching to sweet tea. I know, I know still has a LOT of sugar. But I have a plan.
Wean myself off by making my tea less and less sweet until I can use almost no sugar. I still want some sugar but not alot.
Have already started by asking for my tea 1/4 non sweet the rest sweet. Next 1/2 nonsweet, 1/2 sweet. Finally 1/4 sweet and rest non sweet. I think its a start right?

So I had a moment of weakness today but I will say it was more like depression of not having my boys around (donut).

Breakfast:
Started early with oatmeal-3
Water-0
=3

At the boys school they had a mini breakfast for the Kinder parents.
I had 2 things.

Donut-6 (what a waste of points!)
OJ -2
=8

Lunch:
Noodles-4
Fresh tomato salad-0
Diet Soda-0
Water-0
=4

Am going to try and drink alot more water too. I've introduce just a bit more water into my diet and seeing a difference in my complexion.

T if John has a meal plan he goes by please let me know :)
If it includes beef I will just substitute with turkey.

Snack:
Whole wheat Ritz Cheese cracker-3
Taste of boys mac-n-cheese-2
Water-0
=5

1/4 serving Horizon Choc milk(after run)-1
Water-0
=1

Grilled Ckn Toaster (homemade w/lettuce, tomatoe, pickle and 2 slices avocado)-9
1/2 c Vegetarian Baked beans-2
Diet Soda-0
Water-0
=11

Could only run 2 miles yesterday and almost passed out! The humidity was horrible I felt like I was running with a paper bag on my head.
I think I startled Nick when I came home because I was panting like a dog.

Total points 32

Posting just to Post???

Well Girls I have started baby steps not great steps but baby ones.
I bough some Kashi and am aiming for more fiber in my diet.
I am still in a major funk but I think because I can't seem to rest my mind.
A bit stressed here and there lead me down a wrong path...food wise.

I ran yesterday 4 miles only. I was aiming for 6 but my mp3 ran out of juice right before running by the house so I just quit at 4.
I really do love running, it helps me get away. I feel like I'm running away from it all literly.

I ate okay this morning with a turkey egg scramble but then had a veg burger at chili's and I know thats loaded with fat and calories.

I really want to get out of my funky state, I want to feel destressed, I want to sleep a full night, I want to get back on track.
Can't make promises of when right now but soon, very soon.

Love ya gals!

I'm awful!

I'm pretty awful guys I'm eating so horribly.

Breakfast:
Quaker bar

snack:
Granola health bar Tonya gave me
Bag of candy yes a bag of mixed candy at the movies and popcorn.

Lunch:
#10 meal at McDonalds w/coke

Snack:
Cupcake and Doritos
But I did have a diet coke with this :) I act as if the diet coke will melt the grossness of what I ate out of me...don't I wish.

So awful I can strangle myself!

But I like I mentioned before I'm still working out...how do I have energy for it?

Cycled 4 miles and now walk like John Wayne.
Riding a bike is in no way easy!!
And mental note to self:
Do not ride bike while wearing your shorty running shorts.
All of Rowlett saw my business...and no one wants to see that!

Sorry Haven't calculated points will start to do so as soon as I get over my funk.

Losing it!

I'm losing my mind slowly but surely.
The past week has been hell and I am now convinced I am one of those people who eat to comfort myself. I used to think "Oh chunko thats an excuse you use to eat." But now here I am hugging a bag of Doritos, and hitting on a cupcake with buttercream frosting.
I have eaten like a junkie all last week and have continued with my nasty habit this week.
Though I didn't run last week due to weather and a fridge shopping in the evenings. I haven't really stopped my running work out.
So here's my damage for today.
Sadly I haven't been counting my points.

No breakfast

Lunch:
Bean and cheese Nachos homemade
diet soda

Dinner:
2 chicken strips from Dairy Queen
piece of Texas toast
Shared French fries with Nick
and ALOT of soda...and I mean ALOT!
When I ran I this evening I thought I was going to have to blog about barfing in a neighbors yard.

Ran 4 miles.
Tomorrow I will run 6 rain or shine and no matter how long it takes I WILL be ready to run 8 miles on Saturday!

Yet with all my pigging out I managed to lose 3 lbs...stress!
