My Goals:
Gain energy, run around with my four year old, look in the mirror and I will be happy what I see no matter what the number on the scale says.....and eventually I want to lose those last couple of pounds. BECAUSE I CAN DO IT!!!



My Program:
I work out everyday in some fashion, it is either a work out video, running on the treadmill, using the eliptical, weights, and I also have started taking the classes at my gym- they are free! and they offer a variety of moves which keeps my interest!

Tracking my food!!!

Other Information:
Im Jumping back on the wagon. After dealing with a lot in my relationship with my ex, my son, my family, and myself, I took a hit and it took me awhile to get back up. I am now a single mom just trying to make it work. I am now beginning to find myself again and here I am back on the wagon for good!!!!

(still watching out for those sweets- they are every where!!)

I did the Rock and Roll half a few weeks ago! It's a pretty tough course for sure. ST is where it's at for me so I need to do it. My friend and I are going to start going to the gym so I can do more with the weights there.

As far as the marathon goes - find a program that you think will work for you. Jeff Galloway has a great program. I used him on my first 2 marathons. Just make sure you allow yourself plenty of time to train and listen to your body!

As far as ST I'm going to do Jamie Eason's Livefit for 12 weeks then I'm thinking I'll give P90x 2 a try. I figure between P90x, P90x2 and Jamie Eason I'll have plenty of variety to keep me from getting bored.

My official due date isn't until the 17th, so she has some time, but geesh...every pregnant woman who comes into my office seems to deliver between 38-39 weeks...so I guess that's what I'm expecting. Knowing my luck, she'll try to make it to 42!

Good job on the run! I know it's going to be TOUGH getting back into exercise after this baby comes, but I can't wait to feel good again after a good run! I'm hoping to do another half NEXT October. Maybe I'll be somewhat back in shape by then! I'm going to have about 80 pounds to lose after she's born, so it's definitely going to take a while!

YES!!! E-mail or text me your FB info! :)

I was wondering how horrible it would be to record my classes and then listen to them during my long runs? LoL, talk about motivation, the faster I run, the sooner its over!
