Busted!

May 5, 2011

One of my worst fears from early on in my weight loss journey happened to me today. After losing 112 pounds, I popped a stability ball! Picture this: I drag my groggy self into the gym around 5:45am. I go straight into my weight circuits, and things are fine. I'm in a groove, the machines I ...

7.2 Miles

02.12.2011

Today, I woke up bright eyed and not-so bushytailed and headed out to meet great new friend Holli (aka The Great Askini) for some half-marathon training. Not only has she been a great encourager, she is training with me, doing the half, and has donated to the cause. Talk about awesome! We met at The Legacy …

Humpty Dumpty

02.09.2011

No, I didn’t take a big fall.  Just thinking about how it’s Wednesday, aka Hump Day (insert childish joke here). Although I do feel a little like an egg balancing on a spoon during a spoon race. Just weaving back and forth, waiting to fall off the edge and go “splat!” I feel a little wobbly …

What Would Fit Feel Like?

07.07.2010

I may not be applying for The Biggest Loser again, but I do have to admit that the application does have some great questions on it that hopefully make the people applying stop to really think about their motives. Don’t worry- I didn’t download the application for myself. I’ve been reading Jen Lancaster’s book, Bitter …

The Ugly Doubt Monster

06.12.2010

Today I had my second session with Trainer Rob. I’ve been whining all week that my workouts have been slow going. I think I can shut my mouth now. Rob introduced me to a medium interval training day. Not super hard, but I have to *think* about how fast I can get my heart rate up, …

Do a 5K with Me?

06.11.2010

I may not be pining to be on The Biggest Loser anymore, but that doesn’t make my girl crush on season 8′s Shay go away. Imagine my excitement when I saw she was going to be at the Bluegrass State Games here participating in the 5K. (Oh yeah, Jared the Subway guy will be there …

Slow but Steady

06.10.2010

Gym day #3 today. #4 for the week will be with Trainer Rob on Saturday morning. I lucked out today and hopped on the treadmill right as Jeopardy was starting. And it was an episode that made me feel smart! So rare! That kept me entertained during my sloooow walk. Seriously slow. Yes, that’s a 2.0 speed …

Fattie Gets Fit

06.07.2010

Note: I originally wrote this post to be a guest post on someone elses blog. After thinking about it, I decided that MY blog is the right place to post it. I haven’t ever flat out said my weight on the blog. I can’t believe I’m about to post it, but you guys have taught …

The First Cut is the Deepest

06.06.2010

Ah, Sunday. A day of resting and relaxing. Usually my Sunday’s consist of drinking a lot of coffee, reading a book, cleaning the house, doing laundry. I typically try to get up early(ish) on Sunday’s, but today was a completely different story. I feel like such a slacker! I slept in until 12:40! 12:40! For real? …

Personal Training Begins!

06.05.2010

Check out my vlog recorded after I finished my first personal training session with Rob Silver of Heartfit Lexington. Today, we had to test to see how my heart responded when I pushed my body – very interesting! Also, if you haven’t done so yet, check out this post (that I seriously almost deleted 3 times) …
