Journey to 26.2 Day 24: My Tough Life...

This morning I kicked off my day with a 4.13 mile run! It was a good run, the 4:1's make me really happy. I had a bit of a sore knee so I iced it right when I got done! I also found these awesome on the go quick protein shakes. I got them at CVS and they are only 100 calories or 2pp. The stats are really good, high protein and low carb. Perfect for after a run or work out or as a snack, which I love! I love the EAS brand! 



After my run and breakfast I did some couponing for groceries and then went I WW. Today of course is weigh in day. Well, I gained 1.2, it could be muscle gain or water weight from the run earlier, either way I'm shaking it off and moving on! It's only a pound, I mean I freaking had a 5k PR on Sunday! Small victories!! I'll get back down for sure, keep working the system! I'm seeing slight results which I know will reflect the scale. I was a snack monster this week, so I knew it was gonna happen. I own it and live it!

James is off today too, so we of course had Chipotle for lunch..


I could eat it at least once a day, no joke!!

Now we are relaxing at the beach...


I know tough life...

I run, eat, beach and sleep!

Oh and manage a retail store at times 😃

It's a hard life but I'm so glad I fell into it and your along for the ride!!!

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 ...

Chobani Flip: Key Lime Crumble

Image
First off I love yogurt!! I love low fat yogurt, flavored, Greek, plain, all kinds!! And I am always out looking for what is new and exciting in the yogurt world, I know I lead an exciting life!! So when these Chobani Flips came out, I was all about it. Unfortunately, I couldn't find them here in Florida right away, when I went home in March to New York, I was able to find them and I fell in love. There are probably at least 10 different kinds of flips, vanilla with oats, pineapple with coconut and walnuts, blueberries with chia seeds and walnuts, coconut with dark chocolate and toasted almonds, peach with dark chocolate chips and pistachios, and my favorite key lime with white chocolate chips and graham cracker pieces. The flip part of the yogurt is the cup is split up into to two sections. One section holds the Key Lime Low Fat Greek Yogurt and the other section holds the White Chocolate Pieces with Graham Cracker Pieces. You flip the fun side into the Key Lime yogurt and...
