What I’ve been doing
I’ve been asked by a few people what I’ve done and how I’ve eaten over the last six months to lose the weight. So in lieu of writing everyone individually – I thought I’d make it easier on myself and just do a brief overview here….. (or, you know, not so brief!) For me the… Continue reading

More From the Marathon….
They finally made the professional photos available for download from the Honolulu Marathon! Some of the pictures included in the package were various shots in and around Waikiki and the areas where we ran…… The early morning ceremonies were spectacular! This truly is a stunning place to live. There is much I am going… Continue reading

Attitude
You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink. Same thing goes for 3 year old boys and food. I’ve been thinking a lot about my attitude and how it’s pretty much stunk up the place lately. We I am having (ha, ha!) trouble at times with my son and food,… Continue reading

The First Run….After
I went for my first run today since the marathon and I have to admit, I was a little bit nervous. During the marathon I had such crazy pains in my ankles, calves and knees that I think I was a little fearful that it would take so long to recover that I’d basically have… Continue reading

Gingerbread Fun!
When I was a kid, my mom had this fantastic cookbook – and by fantastic I mean very well loved and food-stained. It had this elaborate gingerbread house recipe on the inside cover. Every Christmas I would ask to make it until finally one year we did. It was so much fun and many of… Continue reading

Fear
Over the past 6 months I have done things I never thought I would. Things I never thought I could. in addition to losing almost 45 pounds, 20+ inches, and seemingly shedding sizes weekly, I’ve gained an incredible amount of confidence. And it’s not just confidence in appearance, although there is that too. It’s more… Continue reading

26.2 Miles
Well, I can’t believe it. I did it. I ran a marathon! 26.2 miles – Woohoo!!! It’s still a little surreal and hard to fathom that I did it… It was so intense both physically and mentally. I think other than giving birth, it was one of the hardest things I have ever done. I… Continue reading

Christmas Craft
Jacob decided that he wanted to paint some ornaments again this year… It was quite comical as every time Jake gets a dot of paint on his skin or on the newspaper, he shouts, “Wipe it off Mama!!!” He is definitely my clean child… 🙂 Hannah painted for all of about 10 seconds before deciding… Continue reading
