RSD: 164

2018 - goal, streak year. 

So far I'm at day 164.

I'm also back to doing crossfit 3-4 days a week since early spring when my friend got her garage gym up and running.  I need to do the same thing someday, her gym is awesome.

45 Days

45 Day Streak!

I hit all my September goals!  They were:

1.  No soda at all, no exceptions 
2.  Run at least 1 miles a day 
3. hit 10,000 steps every day 
4. weigh 157 by October 1st

I let myself have soda yesterday, and I didn't even really care for it anymore, so luckily that craving seems gone (it always takes me a few weeks to get past the soda craving when I stop drinking it). So I'd like to post some goals for October.

1. Run at least a mile every day
2. no soda (minus the one yesterday)
3. hit 10,000 steps every day

4. weigh 153 by November 1st (I need to get a new scale though ours got broken)
5. no added sugar with the exception of whole grain bread (this one is going to be so hard for me, SO HARD, so it's going to be the only new food related goal).
6. run 100 miles in October 
7. run The Fall Patriot Run (5k) in under 30 minutes (it's on October 21).

40 day streak yay! (I ran today already)

It's getting harder to fit in time in the evenings to run with the stroller because I don't like pushing it in the dark and it's completely dark at 7:30 and in the next couple weeks we turn back the clocks and it will be dark by 6:30... I hate winter just because of how dark it always is :(

next month goal run 100 miles :)

September 10, 2017

Since August 19, I've ran every day :)  Some days it was just a mile, but I got out there and did it.  I've also made a couple goals for September:
1.  No soda at all, no exceptions
2.  Run at least 1 miles a day
3. hit 10,000 steps every day
4. weigh 157 by October 1st

So far I've been doing it, and I have gotten down to 156lbs, BUT, yesterday I had a cheat day and ate whatever and I'm up to 158 lol, I anticipate that will go away in the next 2 days. On August 30 I weighed 161.6 so thats good :) My ultimate weight goal is to get back to 145ish lbs, the lowest I've weighed was 143 but my pre-pregnancy weight was 154, when I started weight lifting I gained about 10lbs, so I'm so close!! I am trying to not let anything stop me, I've been bringing Cian on many of the runs even ones that aren't short, I pushed him for over 5 miles one day and man that sucked hahahaha. I also am finally getting closer to my normal pace and the last few days have been running less than a 10 minute mile.  I want to streak as long as I can :)

August 19, 2017

I did a 5k walk this morning with the kids at the Lisbon Homecoming.  I think it was a little bit too far for Kellen and Trent, they were pretty slow at the end, but we did it!
