Zombie's won't catch me!

So a friend posted on facebook a couple weeks ago that she had uploaded an app to her ipod about zombies and running away from them.  Said it made it fun, and she's really enjoyed it.  I asked (bribed) my son if he'd upload the app on his for me to use (one day I'll get one.)

This morning, before I headed off for church, I tried it.

I need to make a play list- my son put 1 song on (I am ipod stupid, he'll show me though) and it was "big girls don't cry."  And it made me giggle.  At least while it played- then it stopped, so he needs to fix it for me!

Anyhow, I made it-- 1.7 miles, in 30 minutes.  Not sure if that is good or not.  Not sure I even care if it's not.  because I was out there and I did it.  I passed by 5 really fit dudes running.  All were coming towards me- and I know I must have looked pathetic gasping for breath and trying to run walk as pretty as possible. 

But I did it.  And tomorrow I'm going to do it again.

Where did the summer go?

The answer is simple, it went to my hips.

It was a weird summer, I did summer school, my husband changed jobs, my schedule was tossed, people came to visit, and I went away for a month to Kansas and then to San Deigo (can we all say serious road trip).  The cost was almost 10 pounds lost... that is until I saw my summer post from here and realized it was more like 15 pounds.

That is not how I wanted my summer to end and the 2012-2013 school year to begin.

Ugh.

Let the summer begin!

My weigh in the morning is at 247.4!  It's been a bit since I was in the 40's, but I am in there because I've not had much of an appetite the last few days.  I'm eating, but only because I know I should, and not very much.  Which is a good mix really for someone who tends to eat way too much or is an emotional eater.

It's summer, so I'm on my "let's get this done" so I can maintain during the school year.  Only this summer, I'm doing summer school.  Which puts a kink in some plans, but not totally.  I went an renewed our pool membership, and plan to start back with water aerobic type things.

I also plan on visiting all my fave health blogs- I've missed you!  But the end of the school year kicked my tail, and I got wrapped up in life.

Camera dead, but I still lost.

It's not all the way dead, just can't remember where I put the battery charger.  But I managed a 1.4 loss- GO ME!!

I feel no guilt that tonight I am having chocolate for dinner.  I need it, it's been a day and I will be happy to eat it.  Because Saturday night I made the same thing and got NONE of it.  Church talent show, I made sweets for my talent.  Tonight, I will finally get to try it--- and it's not even a huge amount of calories.  It's win- win!

Had a loss of 2 pounds over the last week.  Cheers!!!!

Weekly Goals

My weekly goal is to exercise, at least 3 times this week.  My "in my head" goal is to make it to the pool twice, but my heart will be happy with any exercise three times.

Caro- thanks for the inspiration, I'm seriously lacking in good thought sright now.
