The Nutrition Battle

Wednesday, May 16, 2007

Well, i said i would keep this updated with my progress... i havent. So here is an overdue update...

I am at 134 lbs!!!!! (well maybe a little less today since i was puking my guts out earlier this week) I havent been that sick in years!!!! The race went well... i am sure if anyone looks at this then they saw the update on my real website. This site is more for my own personal journaling. (which i dont do nearly enough!) Anyway, I ran the race at a 9 mile pace. I finished in 2 hours. I am really pround of that since i was shooting for a 2:10 finish time and a 10 min pace.

Now I am training for a triathalon. It is called the Wet Dog and it is fairly short. The training is more enjoyable. I needed to mix it up! I ended up runing 307.5 miles from Jan 1 to the end of the race. My joints were killing me! So i am liking the biking and swimming... which both are killing me!!!! I do not have bikers legs at all! It hurts to ride like crazy! But the switch up in training is really nice. I am starting to tone more than i was during the end of my running training.

I do have to say that I am not where i want to be... but.... I am wearing a size 6. Which i was in size 8 before i got preggers. So that is nice. my tummy isnt the same... i am doing mad ab exercisies all the time but still... not the same. At least i have a beautiful daughter. So i cant complain. I dont have the swimsuit body I would like to have but it could be worse. All in all, i have lost 25 pounds this year.

Oh yeah... I also dont want to start trying for another baby until Jan... maybe i will be ready when Kaylen is 2. I think we will go to Disney for fall break and i dont want to be pregnant and feeling bad on vacation. Plus... i am just not ready. Well, that is the update. I am still working hard and trying to watch what i eat. If I had as much disipline with my food intake as i do with my exercising... i would be in perfect shape... but everyone must have a vice... mine is sugar.
