Let’s see…. I am
1) Out of shape
2) slow
3) out of shape
annnnnd out of shape… which leads to being slow… but I’m running so that’s all that counts…
As I mentioned with the push ups… the only way to get better at something is by practice and doing it..
This is how I imagine I am when I am struggling to come back from being out of shape
...
The only way to get better at something is by doing it.

The Mayonnaise Jar When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day is not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and two cups of coffee. A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, wordlessly, he picked up a very large...
Saturday night I got to talking with a friend of mine who I hadn’t seen in a few months. She asked me what I was doing, and I explained the whole driving back and forth, only two classes, yadda yadda and she said to me
” That isn’t much of a senior year”

Ready - set- rant.
I just got back from driving home and I walk in my house and my mom has the same frustration I’ve been having since um forever (realistically since May last year). We keep gaining and losing the same friggen 2 pounds. We follow weight watchers (new program) to a tee and we aren’t losing at all. We are eating health and the healthy guidelines. We are going into our...

disheswithdeb:
Why do we collect recipes? I have hundreds of hand-written copies, pages torn out from magazines, short printed ones from the newspaper, recipe books (OMG-let’s not get started on how many of those!) and, of course, those cute little recipe cards. Then there are the recipes that were given to…

STORY TIME!
Once upon a time I HATED running… that was from birth until summer of 2009… During middle school, high school, and freshmen year I hated running- I mean I was a 3 sport athlete but I HATED RUNNING. The most I would run would be like what a mile… it’s different running when you are playing basketball or running on the soccer...

A little story for you...
I remember a distinct moment in early high school, where I thought “holy shit I’m really fat”. I was in 9th grade and I envied all the skinny girls who wore tiny abercrombie jeans and I wore my size 8 american eagle jeans. (funny because at this point in time I’d kill for a size 8)- but in 9th grade I was a 5’3 155lbs girl. Side note, the following summer I...

The past couple days have mushed together… I finished my online class and GOT A 4.0 in it! so that helped my cum gpa which I’m wicked pumped about.
I have been eating really well!! I am debating putting my food logs on here again but honestly it’s too boring and tedious. If you want to know what I’m eating- ask me :)
As for the head, I am gladly...
iSpam You
I took lots of random “document my life for the blog” pictures the past couple days. In conclusion, enjoy my life. I went to Boston on Saturday (after ww) to see my best friends Amy and Sam! (I lived with them last year, Amy just moved in with Sam in Dec).
I saw this billboard and LOVED it.

The Texting Game

New RULES
I, like many others, don’t like resolutions. It’s not that I don’t think it’s a good idea, but I think that you should start something the day you think you should, you shouldn’t “oh after XX i will”. Thus, I bring you my new rules of the new year. Because- well- let’s be honest… I didn’t have the best 2011.
Rule #1
Be Happy

I ran 20 miles on a treadmill because of the record breaking cold weather we had.
February 2011:
Let’s be honest this month was awesome. I RAN MY FIRST MARATHON.

There’s a funny thing about weight…. Right when everything else is sucking it continues to suck everything up more. Officially at an unacceptable weight.
No mother effing excuse I am to blame.
Starting weight: 168.8
**this is a starting weight not a highest weight, for new followers I HAD lost 67lbs but as noted by the above weigh in I’ve gained much back.
