You’re welcome!!

YESSSSSSSSS!!!!

I love this post.

You toot that horn, Maria! You have every reason to be really proud.

Ok I am nosey. Let’s talk more about this cleaning lady situation? What is stressful to you about the cleaning lady?

Sounds like you’re holding up well. KUDOS!

SUE!!!!!

You just made my day. Heck…my whole week. <3

I’m a bit brain dead today and can’t think. So, I’ve run errands, including getting a new fitbit so I can put my old one out of my misery! Cleaning out the office (all week), finishing up the laundry. Walking (I know that this is a cross training day, but I’m a walker)

Breakfast was a Premier Protein water

Snack before walking into the grocery…[Read more]

I’m so glad you double checked before starting the training!

Welp…I hereby nominate you as the CMO (chief motivating officer). Should you accept this duty, you’d be helping us all stay the course on this thing and acting ridiculously proud of every little thing that we do. (aka Channeling your “Inner Nik”)

Of course you are free to decline…[Read more]

I didn’t make it yesterday so today will be McD’s salad but I have the stuff to make it tonight. I think I’m gonna go with my Power Chicken Salad.

Yay!

I see you there with the gluten-free toast. Good for you for kicking wheat out of your life again!

I’m glad you were able to do the bike, but take it at your own level, always. I’m glad we are doing this. I’m motivated!

Today will be a “catch up day” for me. Laundry, picking up house, working on my self-assessment. Although the 5k training plan states that if “you are new to training today could be a rest day for x-training”, I did ride 20 minutes on my recumbent bike (yay me!!).

Breakfast – scrambled eggs and piece of gluten free toast

Lunch – most likely…[Read more]

I’m not doing a formal 5k. I’m just going to map out a route and walk it! The details about how to do the 5k are forthcoming but you don’t have to sign up for a formal 5k if you don’t want to. But if that’s fun for you, you definitely should!

I was thinking there’s a few of us close enough to meet up maybe? I dunno…whaddya think? 😉

Did you get some vacay planning done this weekend? I think you must have as it’s not on your plan anymore!

I had a good day! I got my walking done. Everything I ate was sooo yummy too.

For breakfast I had an omelet with spinach, tomatoes and onions.

For lunch I had a PB&J quesadilla on half a high fiber tortilla.

For snack I had a lunch meat roll up.

And for dinner I had Cajun sausage and peppers.

I also prepped some spicy breakfast burritos for…[Read more]

Yep! That definitely counts as your 5k walking! 🙂

Sorry they screwed up. Hopefully they’ll make it ridiculously easy for you to reschedule.

Lol, I love it when you’re nosey!!!

Dinners – posted today’s dinner in daily check in (smoked beef ribs and marinated mushroom and tomato salad)

Turkey sausage and cannellini bean casserole

Ole chicken and bean stew

Whole roasted chicken with potatoes and brussel sprouts

Breakfasts – Savory Broccoli and Cheese Bread Pudding and scrambled…[Read more]

Ok, totally bummed since today didn’t start as planned. I was eager to get started with designing a workout plan today and had scheduled an appointment for 10:30 a.m. this morning at Planet Fitness. Got there and was told that the trainer was off today AND the person listed on the website didn’t work there. The staff person totally apologized and…[Read more]

Happy Labor Day!

Today is laundry day for me. Plus “flip the mattress over” day since my husband is off and can help me out.

So, laundry and what I can get done in our home office to start cleaning it out.

Breakfast will be an omelet

Lunch the chicken salad I made yesterday

Dinner is still undecided

I’m adding extra time to my walking today…[Read more]
