November Goals

Alright a brand, new month! New beginnings, new goals and new outlooks!

This month is kind of fun for me because it is the first month out of the whole year, I am not training for anything. Not a thing, nothing big and it is kind of fun month. So here we go, some fun things for the month.

~ I joined Run.Eat.Repeats Pile on the Miles for the month of November and committed to running 40 miles for the whole month. So far I have 4 in from Saturday!

~ Work out at least 1-2 a week in the gym. It can be on a day of no running or after a run. I am trying to incorporate some weights and other high intensity cardio.

~ Use more reciepes for meals.

~ Bake something at least once a week

~ Lose 5 pounds for the whole month

~ Celebrate James's birthday on the 6th. Dirty Thirty and let loose a bit with it.

~ Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving.

~ Start the Runner's World Thanksgiving to New Years, running streak on Thanksgiving.

~ Start making a Christmas list.

~ Spend some quality time with my Mom when she comes to visit on November 16-20.

~ Stick to just one snack a night after dinner.

~ Only go over 4 points a day, unless a special occasion like James's birthday.

I have lots of goals for the month, but these are some I know I can attack. I am excited for November to be a busy and fun month, especially with the fact that my mom is coming to visit. It is also the start of the holiday season at work, which is crazy town, but I am really trying to keep myself grounded, especially on my days off.

What are some big goals for your November???

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
