Run In The Morning..Relax At Night..

This morning I actually got up and went for a run before work, usually if I have to work at 930, I like to sleep in and then I will come home and run after work. In a perfect world that is what I would like to happen, but I usually have a crappy Monday and want nothing more than to fall asleep and just relax when I get home, so I make it a rest day, but not this Monday!!

My friend Jacke asked me if I would like to do a run with her this morning and because we haven't ran together in well over a month, I happily accepted and I am so glad that I did. The run was nice, it was a easy pace for me, we ended up getting in 3 miles. It felt awesome to run with someone else, especially someone who is one of your very best friends. We were able to catch up and work out and burn calories, all the best combinations for a Monday morning.

During the run and after, my right inside part of my ankle was super sore. I was limping and it was a pain every time I put my foot down. I don't have a job that requires me to sit, so I knew it was going to be a long day. I grabbed my Therma Care Heat Wrap and put it around the sore spot and wore it all day at work. It really helped, the heat loosened up the muscle or whatever I might have pulled or made sore. I actually got back from our run early, so I was able to have coffee at home, breakfast and actually got to watch last nights, Once Upon A Time, that NEVER happens.

After work, I rushed home because my poor boyfriend was sick. He wanted Panera, so it is my weakness also, and could resist and ordered myself some also for dinner. The Pick 2, Thai Chopped Salad and Veggie Sandwich is my favorite combo and an apple, it was delicious! For lunch I had some soup and a QuestBar, but now I am still hungry and this happens every week before I weigh in. Its like my stomach knows I want to have a good weigh in and just goes nuts.

I seriously want to eat everything in the house right now, EVERYTHING!! And unfortunately I have to go grocery shopping, so my good choices are limited. I am trying to just drink water, but that's only just making me pee more lol. Crazy time, thankfully I am going to the gym in the morning to work on my core.

So I figured it out, work out in the morning on at Monday and then you can relax the rest of the night!!

Happy Monday!

Low Point Apple Crisp

At my Weight Watchers meeting yesterday, my leader told me about a low point apple crisp and I couldn't resist making it today. I love apple crisp, I don't have it often or really at all, because it can be high in points and frankly I like low maintenance  baking, so when I can find something easy and quick and low in points, well I am all game!! This apple crisp is again so easy and quick, perfect for a craving, a family gathering, party or just to have around the house. Requires only 3 or 4 ingredients to prepare this and you might even have all of it in your house right now. Apple Crisp Serving Size 4 4pp for a serving 4-5 medium apples 2 packets of Cinnamon or Maple Brown Sugar Oatmeal (preferably one that are 100-120 calories or 3pp) 8 oz of Diet Sprite or Diet 7up 5 sprays of Can't Believe It's Not Butter 1tsp of light brown sugar 8x8 baking pan Here is what I used: I actually used 5 apples because I

Let's Go To The Movies....And EAT at Cobb Theaters Tyrone

Image
As part of the Tampa Bay Bloggers, I was given access and a gift card to tour the new Cobb Theatre at the Tyrone Square Mall for social share and blog post, all opinions and reviews are my own. I have lived in the St. Petersburg Area for almost 7 years now and worked at the Tyrone Square Mall for 6.5. In those 6.5 years, I anxiously waited for the mall to get a movie theatre and the time has finally come and this is not just any run of the mill movie theatre, this one is luxury and spacious and a whole experience on its own. Nanci, over at This Crazy Life of Mine , also a Tampa Bay Blogger and more importantly one of my besties, and I have partnered with our blog post about the Cobb Experience. She was in attendance also and there is so much to tell you, we decided to break it up into TWO part posts, linking to the two of our blogs together. I am going to give you the details on the food experience at Cobb, believe me it is more than just soda, candy and popcorn and Nanci is going

Perspective: My Trauma, Fear and Rejection

Well we have made it through another week of CoronaVirus, Stay Home, Social Distancing of 2020. I honestly have no clue what to call it, other than that. Today, has been 2 weeks since we closed BBW and shut down the store. Originally we had some high hopes we would have been open by yesterday, the mall sent an email saying they weren't going to open until the 19th, and then Pres. Trump extended the Social Distancing until the 30th. I honestly have no clue when I am going back to work. I am literally just trying to take it day by day and moment by moment, and week by week. I have been surviving and also Thriving during this process. I am a child of hard things. I have been through some tough shit in my day, and maybe I will get to that at some point, but we can save that for another post. Today the idea of Perspective is in my brain. If you don't know, which I am sure you do know if you follow along with me, but Rachel Hollis, whom is one of the many people I look
