It's Been A Few Weeks

Hi friends! Sorry for not writing in the last few weeks. wow, not having Internet...when stressful things come along...the first thing to go is the trip to the library to post something. There have been some stressful things in our life that has commanded my attention, so I haven't posted and also haven't been running like I would like. A few weeks ago I dropped three or four pounds in a week because I was stressed, but then I gained a few pounds back the stress decreased. But, overall I am actually down to about 13 pounds lost. I was actually down to a 15 pound total loss a few weeks ago. So, because my running has been slack, I don't think I can be ready for that half marathon. However, I may scale back to instead doing a five mile run. The half marathon that I had wanted to compete in also has different distances that you can run. So, if it has a five mile run, I may just do that instead. I also had to take a week off from weight lifting, but I did get in four good days of lifting at the gym last week. Oh, and Morning Glory is so cute right now. He's almost five months. I'm working on figuring out a way to get you all some pictures of him for an update. Other than that, the family is doing well and things are not as stressful as they were. So, hopefully I can focus more on posting and visiting you all. Sincerely, Sunshine Mama

I dropped that 11th pound

Hi there!

I have very short time available to me again. However, I did want to announce that the scale did say this morning that I have dropped 11 pounds total!

Of course I won't make 20 pounds in ten weeks, but that's ok.

I will get there, and you all will too. The key is to just keep trudging along.

I hope you're all doing well!

Sincerely,

Sunshine Mama

Losing A Little More...

Hello friends!

I posted a 10.6 pound loss this morning. I'm still hoping to see an 11 pound loss by the end of the week. I've been running more in preparation for a half marathon in eight weeks. I think that may help.

Also I started taking Fenu Greek this week and and do think it may be helping me with producing more breast milk for Morning Glory. I continue to lift weights four to five days a week. Last week I got in five days. I posted a six mile run on Sunday and will probably try to hit a seven or eight miler this weekend.

Thanks for your encouragement. I do miss the Internet. Thanks Dad for commenting. I love you.

Have a good one!

Sincerely,
Sunshine Mama
