Dealing with Nighttime Snacking

Posted by kristen

Ever since I started my journey to lose weight & become more healthy, I have always “budgeted points” for an evening snack. More times than not, the snack is/was ice cream. Chris, my super husband, has ice cream many evenings. (This is the guy that started running, gave up second helpings & regular Coke and [...]

Week “Nine” Weigh In

Posted by kristen

I will be honest.  I wasn’t sure what to expect when I weighed in on Saturday. I did my best. I dealt my youngest being hit with the stomach flu. I had a rough day eating on Wednesday and shouldn’t have caved in like I did.
I was pleasantly surprised to see my loss on Saturday. [...]

Thankfully

Posted by kristen

Thankfully I haven’t experienced any pain since my run yesterday. I had a twinge of discomfort last night but nothing like I was experiencing. Thank you for all of the suggestions & comments. I have been taking some Motrin to help with the inflammation. 
On a different note, I am stuck in the house with Megan [...]

Every time I think I am going to get the the [...]

Making it a Priority

Posted by kristen

Yesterday I had planned on running until we got the call about a showing. I am NOT complaining at all about the showing. Finally the activity is picking up in the housing market. Praying hard for a second showing and an offer. This stuff is for the birds.
After running Meg to preschool, I knew that [...]

Week “Six” Weigh In

Posted by kristen

As you can probably figure out, my computer has been fixed and returned to me. YEAH! I was so lost without my computer.
Since I posted last, my life got even a little more crazy. School for Sydney ended up being closed the rest of the week. Wednesday, I received a call that we had TWO [...]
