Who am I?

May 15, 2011

The past week has been a mixed bag. I'm super busy at work, have a million things I want to write, projects I want to do, outside commitments to fulfill, and FitBloggin' preparations for this upcoming week. Don't get me wrong - I LOVE being busy, however it doesn't always mean great things for my ...

Southern Lights Stroll 5K Recap

11.25.2010

As I wrote last night, I was having some mental barriers to doing a 5K tonight without a swarm of supportive people to finish it with me like during my first 5K. I was also slightly worried about the new medicine I am on for my edema in my legs, as it can cause muscle …

Where’s the toilet paper?

11.23.2010

Seriously. Went to the doctor today for my leg swelling, which just did not want to go away. I had all my liver and kidney function tests a few months ago when he put me on the first diuretic, which helped a little, but isn’t providing my relief for my current condition. He gave me a …

Workout Music | Christmas Theme

11.21.2010

For anyone out there doing a Turkey Trot or similar themed 5K this week, I thought I’d share my playlist I made for the Southern Lights Stroll 5K. Wanted some festive music to listen to while I run (em, or walk) through the 3.1 miles of twinkle lights at the Kentucky Horse Park.

Don’t Cry over Pumpkin Pie

11.17.2010

I think I had some of you worried with my last post. I’m fine, really! It wasn’t really the weight that was getting to me, it was just a whole wave of self-doubt and lack of confidence that just overtook me. When I get stressed out, I tend to over-analyze, over-think, and generally get a …

Last Chance Workout

10.09.2010

Today I had a session with Trainer Rob. Since I haven’t been on the scale in nearly a month (a daily exercise in personal restraint) and I’m up for weighing in on Monday, Rob joked it was my “Last Chance Workout” ala The Biggest Loser. I actually brought my Flip Video camera so he could …

Recap: My first 5K

07.18.2010

Yesterday, I finished my first 5K. Woot! I didn’t finish it alone, either. I had a wonderfully supportive group of friends who were there to push me, and who finished with me. I was really overwhelmed with emotion yesterday (and still am today, but have turned the waterworks off), and made a video to thank them all: …

5K Thank You’s

07.17.2010

Wanted to get this up really quick- thank you’s to those who completed the 5K with me. The video also should be titled “Skinny Emmie cries like a baby” but whatever. I’ll put a total race recap, pictures and video up later!
