Weekly Weigh In: Just ehhhh

I can not believe that is Tuesday already! Another week down and we are about half way through the month, craziness. So since it is Tuesday, it means Weight Watcher meeting day and weigh in day. Again another week, I really wasn't sure what to expect due to that weird lost that just didn't seem right, 2 weeks ago. This past week, I clocked in my 11 miles and for the week, I got in about 20 miles of running, but that was about it. I didn't make it to the gym and I have stared at my weights I have laying around every day but yet to pick them up.

I haven't been to the gym at all since I have started to increase my mileage. I love my running and after my long runs I am always beat and need a bit of rest for sure. And I always rest for at least 3 days during my long run training, for instance, I took Monday and Tuesday off to rest, tomorrow I am doing 11 miles again and then Thursday a true rest day, I will need it because I sure needed it last week. But I guess the point I am getting at this little rant, is I need to do more besides the running and that is my ultimate goal this week.

I am sure you can guess from my rant about my lack or little lack of exercise this week, which I know seems crazy, 20 miles of running and earning 34 activity points is far from little, I had a gain this week. I gained .6!! Again I am shamed to get upset over this, its a little gain, it could have been anything, but it is gain back to back is what kills me! But I am really trying to not let this get me down. I will fight back and work really hard this week. I am putting in my miles, going to incorporate some weights and pay a deep big attention to my points. So here is to another week and really hoping to see a loss!!

Have a happy fitness week!!

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
