Food:
- Cold Zoodle-sketti salad
- a lunchmeat roll up
- a power crunch bar
and I am about to take some Tylenol cold and say goodnight cuz my face hurts!

I had an appointment with my eye Dr today, so I got out of the house. Last month when I was at the YWM conference in NOLA, my left eye started flashing light really bad (on Saturday). I wasn’t very concerned since my right eye has been doing that off and on for more than a year. It has something to do with the vitreous in my eye pulling away. …[Read more]

So far this week: Sunday got to bed at 3:02, Monday at 5:07 (not so good)
drinking: Sunday about 45 ounces, Monday 56 ounces
Scott took me to lunch Monday, went to eye Dr today, so good on going out so far. However, I’m really dopey and dizzy today because I’m weaning off of my paxil, so tomorrow might just be fetching the mail

Stress is definitely starting to take a toll on my husband and I. He’s eating too much and everything I eat or drink makes me feel sick to my stomach. Where I used to get about five hours of sleep a night, in the last two weeks it’s dropped to three. If his work would just tell us what’s going on, I could handle whatever it is. It’s the not…[Read more]

Today re-affirmed for me why I usually start the daily post way early in the morning. This was the longest trek to my computer EVER! But it was for good reason. I got my wig done. It needed it! Girlfriend was about to walk right off my head in protest.
Anyhoo…the 5k plan says today we cross-train! 20-30 minutes. I plan to go to Zumba tonight,…[Read more]

Yikes! Food poisoning is no fun at all. I’m so glad you’re feeling better.
And great news about your injury! Now you can ease back into it without pain. That’s great news indeed.

I was just thinking about 9/11 myself this morning.
Today’s a repeat of last week’s days. I’m still working on cleaning out the home office. I was obviously being extremely optimistic to think I was going to finish it in a week.
Walking, push-ups and planks are on the schedule.
Heading to my local library to renew my card. Being in the process…[Read more]

First things first. I pause to remember the innocent men and women who lost their lives this day 16 years ago. I can’t believe it’s been that long.
Today is looking like a typical Monday. Our 5k plan says to walk 20 minutes so I shall on my lunch break. It’ll be more like 2.5 miles though. 😊
My OAC board meeting was cancelled tonight (staff are…[Read more]

I kinda like this process of sitting down with my planner book. It feels more concrete to me than an online calendar. Don’t ask me why. Anyway, my plan is sort of half-assed this week as I didn’t prep any meals today. I just needed a mental break. So I unplugged for the better part of the weekend and binge-watched Netflix. It’s what I needed to…[Read more]

End of week report back:
- Monday. 5k training happened.
- Tuesday: 5k cross training did not happen!
- Wednesday: 5k walking happened but not all at once like I planned. Still, I walked.
- Thursday: Ugh. That was a trying day. BF live didn’t go well. So I’m glad that it was a rest day so I could just go home and go to bed.
- Friday: Cross…

Awesome! The plan isn’t required. But nobody in the FNC is officially doing the 5k until everyone who needs to do the training does it cuz #NoFoodieLeftBehind.
So if the training plan isn’t doing it for you, that’s fine! Just make sure you’re prepped in your own way and ready to go when it’s time.
Great report-back! Onward!

Where to start, where to start?
Walking, of course. I wouldn’t be me if I didn’t walk! I started push-ups at the end of last week and will continue adding one to each set until I reach 25. Starting on the plank challenge Monday morning.
Continuing to work on not grazing my way through the day. I was doing well with that until Saturday when…[Read more]

It’s a gorgeous day in central Texas, also! Sunny and actually not too hot!
Today’s been a lazy one. Church, lunch out and a nap!
Breakfast was a Premier Protein shake (running late for church)
Lunch was a beef tostada without the crunchy tortilla (think mini taco salad)
Dinner will be leftovers
Bedtime snack – I don’t know yet

Had lunch today with my nephew and his wife, who are visiting from Utah. It was so great to see them! Pretty shaky and dopey today, so will be resting at home for the rest of the day.
breakfast: premier protein
lunch: 1 1/2 slices dry toast, 2 poached eggs (didn’t quite finish it)
dinner will be salad from Walmart

Time to do a weekly plan. Hopefully will help me get off my butt, and accomplish some goals. I had 9 days of prednisone for my poison ivy, which made me feel like crap, and now I’m on 5 days antibiotics for a UTI. Will start my new meds for the shaking after I’m off the antibiotics. In the meantime, I’ve been doing a lot of sitting in the hou…[Read more]

Happy Sunday! If you’ve been ding the 5k training, week one is officially in the books! Five more to go. Today is a rest day.
Except I’m not resting. I loaded yesterday (after doing my walking and my cross training I didn’t do on Friday) so today I’ll clean, but food and hopefully prep some food for next week. I’m also gonna do my planner book…[Read more]

My nutritionist wants me to eat between 1300-1500 calories and have my carbs at around 100 grams. 50% of every meal is supposed to be protein. That’s all the guidance I have received. I have problems with getting above 1,000 calories most days which I know isn’t enough for how much I walk.

I’m so glad you’re feeling better, Nikki!
I’m having one of those mornings. In the wee hours, the lady that lives behind us let her dog(s) out. She turned on her backyard flood lights. Which woke up our dog who decided going out was a GREAT idea. Usually she wakes up my husband (he of the middle of the night Milkbones) but apparently this time it…[Read more]

I’m alive!
Thats saying a lot after the past two days of cramps so bad they felt like contractions. I had to take prescription pain meds to get a handle on it (I was given them by my doc and told only to take for pain level 8 or higher.)
It took the edge off but I was still uncomfortable all night and now I’m groggy. But this morning I feel way…[Read more]
