There's nothing like a great workout in the beautiful Utah mountains to get your blood pumping and make your soul feel free and ready to conquer the day!
So why do I sabotage all those calories burned by eating COOKIES for breakfast???
I'm not talking about 1 or 2 delicious "no bake" chocolaty cookies. I'm talking, I didn't even realize what I was doing till I pounded 4 or 5 of them down! It wasn't till my stomach started feeling that familiar churning and started screaming out to me, "What the H e double ll are you doing?".
It's been a rough week, that's all I can come up with for an excuse.
I've got some making up to do:
1. force myself out for a second workout
2. salads for lunch, dinner, and snack for this chic (that doesn't mean Cafe Rio)
3. NO stretchy pants today! That will teach me not to bloat my stomach right from the get go. Nothing says, "Don't overeat", like a tight pair of uncomfortable jeans.
Till next time (or next downfall)

July 21,2011
How is my summer weight loss going? UMMMM....let's just say I'm not running around in my swimsuit flaunting. Why oh why must cellulite love to linger? Especially those thighs, butt, and tummy.
My mom is planning a surgery to help fix her leg where the compound fracture was. They will be using fat to inject the area so she will not have such a big dent. Being her daughter, I happily offered to be the donor. She informed me that she had plenty of that and wouldn't need any extra. How rude! JK mom.
Exercising these last couple of months has been difficult with my girls vacationing, me vacationing. I've kind of just had to take it in strides, squeezing it in whenever I could. Staying up waaaay to late every night hasn't helped the situation any.
I am sad to admit that I haven't even taken my bike out for the summer. One of my favorite calorie burning activities and I am missing out. I have made it hiking the Y a few times in my prep to hike Timp again this fall. I've also traded running on the treadmill for walking on a steep incline, but my poor bike has been locked away in the garage and it's JULY!!!
My good eating habits are like my bike...locked away. I've splurged on ice cream...lots, candy...lots, fast food so I don't have to cook...lots. It's pathetic, I've never eaten so bad in my life.
Well, no more! I'm done! We had our last family vacation and I'm gonna start fresh.
Little steps:
1. No more gelato splurges at Costco
2. Set the dang alarm for 5:30! I don't care if I'm too tired, I'll get over it.
3. Cook 4 nights per week - gotta start somewhere
4. Ride my bike up to Vivienne Park One time per week now thru August
