Let's do H&F Flamefuls

1. I ran today. I am not cleared to run, and was kind of told not to run yet. But it gave me a better endorphin rush than walking, which I really need right now, and it felt so good to sweat for the first time in months.

2. I "listened" to my body and ate whatever the heck I wanted when pregnant. I gained 60lbs. I easily fell back into my healthy eating routine after I had the baby - but the scale is not going down, at.ALL.

3. I'm spending WAY more than our budget allows at Wholefoods every week, because their fruit and meat are my favorite healthy foods. Breastfeeding is my excuse

I've been gone/only sporadically posting and I totally missed that you had a baby! Congratulations! Remember - it took 10 months to put those pounds on, they'll come off with time.

Remember how earlier (like every day) I bitched about gaining weight and generally making bad food choices?

Just stopped at mcdonalds on our way home from the airport for my ten piece and diet DP. And the weather is supposed to suck tomorrow so I probably won't run.

I am so beyond fucked in my 70.3 training. I am confident I can handle the swim/bike part (handle, but not do as well as I could) but my running is abysmal. Last minute meetings/weather are killing my training, my diet sucks, and I have no idea how I am going to make it through the run.

The smart thing is probably to not do the race, but a) that will make me so mad and b) there isn't another later to replace it with.

The flameful is that I will likely push through and stupidly do it anyway to my detriment.

I had a great running week last week (51 miles with a back to back). Then this week...I've run 2 miles. I blame the crazy commuting that comes with the new job and having visitors, but damn I feel lazy! Next week will be better, right?!

This has been me lately, too. I hate the way I look, but I continue to make bad choices in food and slack on workouts. It's a bad cycle, but I don't seem to have the will power to break it.
