December Run Streak Challenge Day 10 and Weekly Weigh In

This is going to be a pretty short and sweet post, I'm literally about to fall asleep at the computer writing this. I tried to get this posted before midnight, but life happened and I am NOW just sitting down, unwinding for the first time all day. So here it goes...

Woke up at 6:30..got 1.33 miles in. It was a bad run, my stomach was killing me, due to, if your guy turn away now, my period, but I got the mileage in and the streak is still going strong.

Got to work at 8:15, had a crazy, busy, long day till 6:30. I managed to only eat something quick for breakfast, I drank a Special K Protein shake for lunch with two cut up apples and probably did not get enough water in for the day.

After literally running out of work, raced to my Weight Watchers store and weighed in. Wasn't sure what to expect because I had a really big cheat day on Saturday and then started AdvoCare this Sunday and just got my period today, BUT despite it all, I was down .4.

A little number but I will take it, a loss is a loss. I am hoping to see a better number next week but I am happy where I am at and where I am going. The AdvoCare seems to be working, my energy is really up and during the day I am moving and keeping up, which I really like. It is really hard for me to eat completely clean on the 10 day challenge.

I am trying to get all my fruits and veggies in and I am drinking water like it is nobodies business. But giving up coffee and a lot of processed food is hard. I can't give up my coffee with my fat free creamer, it gets me by. And tonight we had our traditional Taco Tuesday, and since I didn't eat hardly anything all day I enjoyed my Tacos, BUT did not over do it with chips. I could tell I was hungry and didn't need anymore.

And for dessert tonight, not the best, I had a serving of Rice Krispies in a bowl with fat free milk and a banana. PMS was taking over, but I measured my serving and that is it and I stayed within my 26 WW points.

After my Taco Tuesday, I finished up some last minute family Christmas gifts and then came home and wrapped gifts for 2 hours. I have to send all my gifts back to New York and I have to do it tomorrow since it is my second to last day off before my 10 day stretch to Christmas. I had a cup of coffee at 10:00 clock tonight just to keep me going and now I am crashing.

That is okay by me...today was productive and I got done everything I needed to do and it was a win all the way around.

Day Streak 10: 1.33 miles
Total Mileage since Dec. 1: 21.40 miles

Low Point Apple Crisp

Image
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

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

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
