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.

Had no idea you had this blog. I may need to start one of these myself. I have lost 6 pounds since the half marathon. My plan is to:
Base metabolic rate = 2000
- Eat b/w 1700 - 2000 calories per day
- Burn 800-1000 calories per day from exercise
- No food after 7:00 pm
- no more than 500-600 calories per meal
- 5-6 small meals a day
- whites to wheats
- one "anything I want meal" a week
- one day a week burn 1500-2000 calories from exercise
- stick to the triathlon training schedule
- up date my-calorie-counter.com daily
my goal is to get down to 180. I started at 192...at 186 now.
Do you have your new bike yet? We need to ride sometime.
LOL..I am very dedicated to exercise, but not so much to watching the food, as well...haha. I don't eat much, just not great..lol. I am sure I will never wear a bikini again, even when I return to pre-preggie weight. It somehow will never be the same without surgery...eeeekk..lol.
