Journey to 26.2 Day 80: Quite and Weigh In

Okay I have to admit I am leading a very boring life today.

I am so very much okay with that!!!

I got up this morning and my laziness was kicked right in. I knew today had to be a walk or XT day, I just was not having it. No real energy and no desire. Not sure why, I think I was just enjoying sleeping and heck sometimes a day off is needed.

This is where I would normally put another rest day in and believe me I was going too, but I knew I would regret it. So I put on my Big Girl Panties and went to our little fitness center. I did 30 minutes on the bike which comes to 6 miles and then 10 minutes of some abs and lifting weights for my flabtastic arms.

I did okay at the gym, but I am sure I could go a little faster or harder but I just wasn't having it. But I got something done, better than nothing.

After I came home and enjoyed a big cup of coffee to just get me going and then I knew I had to go and weigh in at Weight Watchers. I was hungry but decided to wait until after the weigh in.

Wrong idea because we were going to run errands but then enjoy Chipotle for lunch.

Okay so at my weigh in, I was down 1.4!

YAY!!

Even though I was really, really hoping for me. Like much more. But that weight gain last week was a slap in the face and I want to get back down to the 150's by the time of my Marathon and I am going to be working my ass off to get there. Because on my weigh in days, I cheat a little, not in the sense I go crazy, but I just don't track that day, just a day off I suppose from that too.

Sometimes I just need a time to clear my head. We did Chipotle for lunch which was awesome as always and now we are going to BBQ for dinner with family. I have been really loving BBQ lately, a lot. Then we are coming home and curling up for the night with a glass of wine and the Sopranos, they just might be taking the hole of Breaking Bad.

I have had a wicked headache all day, I think it is sinues which sucks, so all in all I think my body is telling me something, so taking it easy today. And it has been super nice.

Happy Hump Day

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

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
