Phew........

Alright, so the scales are now going in the right direction...down! I had a small loss today, but a loss none the less, and I will take that.

My First 5K

Good news all...

I am going to be participating in the CIBC Run for the Cure 5K run. I use dto think 5K was a pretty long distance and that it would be a tough race...now I kinda feel like it will be no problem, and find myslef a bit dissapointed that they don't have a 10K distance at the event...

All in all, it is a great cause, and I am just happy to be abel to contribute to something so worth while. If there is a run in your area you shoul go out and support the runners. And to those of you that are doing the run, best of luck to you and remember to have fun!

Frustration

I haven't posted in a few weeks...and I am now biting the bullet and posting to explain why.

I have gained a few pounds over the last few weeks, my weight last week and this week were both up. A total of only 4 pounds, so it isn't the end of the world by any means, and as much as I hate to admit it, I know exactly why. When I got back from the Wedding in New Brunswick I weighed in and I was down 3 pounds...I was thrilled because I didn't really pay very close attention to what I ate when I was home. So it kind of gave me a false sense of security in that I could do the same all the time. And to top it off I have had 2 weekends that included licorice and nachos (they just go so well with movies)...both of which are problem foods for me that ALWAYS lead to over eating. 1 or 2 Nibs, I think not, the whole bag more like it.

So this is my confession post...as much as I hate to post bad reults I need to do it and I need to keep myself accountable. I recommitted to journaling my food and activity yesterday and am fully committed to going back to the basics and rereading a lot of my "motivational" material.

All Grown Up!

What a week!!! My best bud in the whole wide world got married on saturday, and I was her maid of honour. Doesn't she look amazing! That is me and Josh in the picture with her. I had such a great time the whole week at the Stagette party, the wedding shower, the rehersal, the actual wedding, the open house, and I didn't want to leave when I did. I realized this past week how much I miss having her around...it is so nice to have someone that knows you better than anyone else, and has shared more with you than anyone else. Miss you Mrs. Alward!!!
