Sophia Blogs to Lose!

So I don't know why, but the last month has been a downward spiral. i was doing so, so good. I think the problem started Veterans Day weekend, I flew to Washington DC to visit my lil sister and I was packing and trying to fit everything in one bag, couldn't fit my workout clothes and shoes. . I only wanted to do carry ons because they charge now for checking any (even the first) bag! Well that was problem number one. So I spent 4-5 days with out exercising and I was eating. . . OK. . . only OK,… Continue

I am thankful for any weekend, but it rained most of the weekend so I didn't run on Friday or Saturday. Sunday it wasn't raining so I did 4 miles. I pretty much ate and drank like crap all weekend, which was stupid. It was really damaging to my bank account and my health, I'm sure. It isn't raining right now but it is supposed to be raining by the time I get off of work so I guess we will see if I get some activity in today. I should do the Wii Fit if anything! I hope everyone is well.

Wow, I haven't posted a blog in 8 days. . that's a lot for my talkative butt. I have been loggin in, just have been kinda down and not in the mood to post.

I really kept jumping back and forth on what I should do and they made this job sound so wonderful it was hard to resist. Well, it is sort of back-firing now beca… Continue

Yeah! So the Wii Fit and my scale agree that I have been losing weight. . (thank goodness). I ran 4 miles again yesterday. I am glad I did, because I didn't work out on Monday and I was NOT in the mood to exercise yesterday but I just forced myself to do it. When I saw that I had dropped another pound this morning I was so happy I had ran yesterday and it gave me a little more of a boost of motivation. So I officially registered/paid for my brother and I to do the 10K on Thanksgiving. I am very… Continue

I splurged a bit like I usually do this weekend. (Not horrible though). But I did stay on top of the running. Yesterday I ran 4 miles and was very excited that I was able to pull it off! I am still working on being ready for the Thanksgiving 10K. I am pretty happy with myself, seeing that I have only started this running business about 3-4 weeks ago. I am still not seeing much of a difference on the scale, but I look so much thinner that I am sure the running has been helping me gain muscle. The… Continue
