Weigh-In-Wednesday

Well I didn't post yesterday...or last week for that matter. I apologize for that! But I didn't forget. Honestly. I didn't. Life was just...hectic. But I'm back! And I have been keeping track of things for you guys.

To do a quick little catch up. Last week I had lost a pound! Yes! And this past week I took a break and let my legs heal up. They were hurting pretty terribly. But I still weighed myself this last Wednesday....

And I still lost a pound! Yes YES!

I was very pleased by this information.

Thankfully though I ran again this week and my legs aren't hurting too much. So I can really get back into doing that. That is if it isn't so blasted HOT!

And I promise that the next post I publish on here I will get you all caught up with the babies! And I'll even include pictures and whatnot!

Promise!

Weigh-In-Wednesday

Sorry guys for the late post...but it is still Wednesday so I'm not too terribly late...

I'm starting to get a really nasty cold and it sucks and to top it off Hudson and Tucker have been having a rather difficult time sleeping, i.e. They've been up literally all night twice now. Which means no sleep for this little mama...

And then running has been hard going because of some major leg pain. Wrapping does help a bit, but it still just kills me sometimes.

Never fear, though! I'm still determined to get my times better and continue to run because I absolutely enjoy the feeling. It's a great de-stressor for me and I cherish that time to simply reboot my batteries.

Anyway, onto the weigh-in

The result for this week are as follows:

Nothing lost.

But nothing gained.

I stayed the same.

I would have preferred a loss, but I'll take not gaining anything as well. I know the reasons WHY I didn't lose anything and I'm okay with it.

I'll just kick this nasty cold and get back to work this next week!

Wish me luck.

Weigh-in-Wednesday

I believe I mentioned last week that there was a discrepancy between my scale here at home and my mother's and sister's scales down in Kanab. And it isn't a little discrepancy either. It was several pounds difference. So, the husband and I bought a new scale. So I'm starting at a new number right now.

And the results are going to be rather tricky.

If I go according to my weigh-in last week on my own scale then I've suddenly last 5.8 pounds.

If I go according to my weigh-in on my mother's scale then I've lost a pound.

It seems that our new scale is measuring like the scales down in Kanab, so I think we can assume that I've lost a pound this week. Which is awesome!

However, what's not so awesome is the fact that I seem to have shin splints from running. When we got back home I sort of overdid my run...by like 2 extra miles down and up hills (because I was running down to the store for my sick husband) on top of my normal run. My legs have been dying every since. And when I went running last night I was hurting bad. I did some research and sure enough my "symptoms" point to shin splints, which isn't uncommon for a flat footed runner like myself.

Le Sigh...

So I'll need to wrap my legs before I go running and really ice them down to relieve some of this swelling and pain. It's a bummer, but it's not going to stop me.

Though it may make me take it easy this week.

We'll see!
