Grumbles, gripes, and why can't there be low calorie Gyros!

Morning lovelies,

Today is a lovely monday, which is sadly not my cheat meal day. Gah, how I wish it was! My regularly scheduled partner has me make her food every week when I do my meal prep, which works out awesome for me because I don't have to deal with temptations. Tonight we got split and I have a different partner who got a Gyro for dinner.... I miss Gyros! I am currently itching like a crack fiend. Lol, I ate my normal snack but it didnt cut it and while I am not hungry, Im HUNGRY. I keep talking myself down, because I know while it wouldn't really screw me up it wont help me get to my goal. So instead of doing my goals a disservice Im blogging. So friends tell me, what is your food that catches you up? How is your week going? Are you kicking ass at your goals?

A little less facebook, a little more Drag Queens....

So today while I was doing my normal wake up/ preworkout routine. I was scrolling through facebook per the ush and I was bombarded with people selling things like IT WORKS and Shakeology. The one that finally put me over the edge was a targeted add about a starlets weight loss, the title was misleading so I clicked on it. Of course it was another add for the "miracle weight loss drug garcinea cambogia" I was obviously a little miffed I got click bated for something stupid. I left for my run and didn't get the same quiet mind time as usual, I kept ruminating on the articles. The starlet was Rebel Wilson, whom I normally find fairly inspiring. She plays yo the fact that she is bigger and embraces it. I love the fact that she promotes loving your body. Which is something I often struggle with. I am sad to see the way that media plays on insecurity to keep people fad dieting. Sadly there is no miracle its all blood, sweat, and tears. Over the years I have always struggled ...

Sometimes you need to drag yourself, even when you want to stop......

Happy Friday Loves!! I think I am gonna make this my blog day, This week I didn't make anything really different as far as food goes, but I have been better at sticking to my diet so I am almost back on track weight loss wise. I got turned onto this popcorn from vitamin shoppe... The peanut butter vanilla is to die for. Its a little pricey but so delicious. I didn't know that I needed Peanut Butter Vanilla popcorn in my life, but I'm sold on it now. Lent starts the first and I actually had to think about it this year.... I couldn't go to my old standby since I don't eat fast food, I don't drink soda... crap I will have to give up something hard LOL. I decided that this year I am giving up CHOCOLATE (ugh I may die) also no meat on Monday and Fridays. God grant me the strength to do the damn thing. Bring on the Meat substitutes!! This week I have also been pushing myself pretty hard. The weather has been gorgeous and I Just wanted to be out and runni...

They want to be like you, be worth being.

Happy Friday Lovelies!!! Another week down, this week I increased my running miles to 8 on my long run day. Oh boy did I wake up sore Thursday (Alieve is my friend) The pup really wanted to run yesterday but he had to settle on watching me do yoga. I actually swore at the video during goddess pose. At least I did it and my muscles felt better after. I also took an honest rest day on Tuesday, ran out of time because I had to take the doggo to the vet. He has a clean bill of health and the vet was happy that I take him running. Friday Fun Day is in full swing. ran 3.1 in 34 minutes then got out the mask and ran a 9 minute mile in the mask and did my cool down. Today some I got joined in stretching by some of my little buddies while they were visiting daddy at the station. They decided they wanted to be my cheering section (really they wanted to join in) had some nice stretches between sets. ( My cheering section tonight was pretty darn cute) ...
