Weigh in day...

First pic is 6 weeks ago next is today :) I joined a 6 week Facebook challenge where my goal was to exercise at least 5 x per week which I smashed :) and lose 12 pounds which I was 0.8 shy of! I'm ok with that- I worked hard! Couple less indulgences and I'd have been there but hind sight it's 20/20 and it sucks lol!

Today might be my last lunch run.... Even with my mace running in the hood is nerve wracking for sure! I WAS feeling confident and ok since I had my mace but today I changed my mind... I ran past these two very seedy individuals that stared and made me very uncomfortable....I think I could fight off one and spray his eyes out but two....mmm I doubt it.... I just don't want to be a statistic so I guess it'll b back to the treadmill at 5 am instead :) I feel like such a weenie saying that but I am a big chicken! On a different note about that run-WOW IM SO DONE WITH 100degree days! Dang was it hot n humid! I was red as a tomato!

Having spaghetti squash and rotel for supper so good :). Finally got some more Jay Robb's strawberry protein powder so I will have my banana split protein shake for dessert and I am so looking forward to it!

The kids both took their lunch the first time for Kylie and oh my..... First off Ty took a peanut butter sandwich with crust cut off, a cup thing of nutter butter cookies, a banana,& a little bag of pretzels.... What did he eat? The cup of nutter butters! That's it! Said I wasn't hungry mom!! Kylie took a bologna and cheese sandwich no crust, a little bowl of strawberries, a banana, a blueberry muffin and a water.... The strawberries "just came open" which translates to Kylie opened them to eat a couple and didn't close the bowl all the way. So her entire bag was full of squished strawberries as she did not mention it to anyone lol! She ate the sandwich and half the banana and the muffin.... Put the other half of the banana in the sandwich box mmmmmmGROSS! Lol it was mushed too and slimy gross! I think they'll just buy lunch hahaha

I stumbled upon this blog today-can't recall the name but she's popped into my mind today quite a bit. She's a runner too and her mother ran and was out training one day and passed away on the track! I feel so lucky to be healthy and feel like I have the fight to get where I want to be and do the things I want and need to do! My dad needs a heart transplant and I think of him a whole lot on runs. That post, you've prolly seen it on pinterest, that says I run because someday I might not be able to, I run for those who can't-that's me :) I'm slow but I'm doing it!

Sittin here watching undercover boss-I love the idea behind this show but it just seems so freaking scripted!

Hopefully will get to the farmers market tomorrow before they close! Can't wait to check out what they got! They have yoga! I would really like to do that but I bettin my kids would not let that happen- not peacefully anyway hahaha. I signed up for a virtual race for this weekend it's a 5miler so I gotta crank that out sometime! And I think I'll take the kids to the library. I need some motivation so I think I'll borrow some running books! Have a great and safe weekend! Until next time....
