Under 8 mins! I don't think I'll ever get there. lol That's fantastic, Rachie.
Hope things are going well in preparation for the conference. I'm sure you'll have a great time running around DC when you get there. Haha Good luck with your weigh-in!

You'll get there and believe me it wasn't easy today!! I looked almost tanned I was so red! ;) My poster has gone to the printers so I'm out of the stressed faze now! I know my stuff so don't worry about the actual poster presentation, it's just all the crap I have to do to get there!!!

Thursday
So I kicked butt at the gym again and got another mile in around 8 mins as well as 30 minutes on the super dooper new machine at the gym that I don't know the name of - actually I think it's just a really fancy elliptical trainer that the arms move on too :) It gave me a great workout whatever it's called! I might have to get on the arc-machine tomorrow- that's pretty hard work too!

I'm going to start seriously shopping for a dress next week when I get back from the conference so I have to be good! I am buying a bunch of fruit and making myself some pre-prepared snacks so I don't end up eating coffee cake and naughty snacks at the conference :)

I've just realized that I'll have limited internet access too so I will have to miss you guys!! I'm going to try but will report back afterwards as to my behavior! OH, and I weighed in at 131lbs this morning so i am not doing quite as badly as I thought. I should update my ticker but I am clinging on to the 130lbs because I should be back there within the week!! :D
 
Ooh extra workout coming up!!! My boyfriend is going for a run tonight. It should be an easy one because he recently hurt his leg so is trying to recover from that and it's his first run back. This way I get an extra jog in and I get to make sure he doesn't overdo it and can get home okay if he struggles :)

Might have to concentrate on weights tomorrow to give my leggies a rest from all this running!!

trip him that way he'll go really slow and you can kick his butt and make fun of him for being so slow :)

Ooh that's a good one :D I usually just pull the surprise sprint finish and laugh when I beat him... when my breathing recovers :eek: Thanks Mal :D
 
Putting ice cubes down your boyfriend's shorts... evil? or just kinky? ;)
Congrats on not having much of a gain! I hope your run with your boyfriend is great.
 
Oh what a day! It's raining a lot and I had to practically run (ooh good exercise) from the gym to work because I have so much to do! Too much in too little time!!!

I weighed in at 131lbs again this morning so I am sure I didn't gain more than 1lb now. I am hoping I get to use the gym at this conference so I can work off that extra pound and then some!!
 
Howdy Rachie,
Congrats on your weightloss and it is no better
here Rain Rain Rain when will it ever end? Hope you have a nice
weekend,Tammy
 
Hi Rachie!

Wow, look at all that exercise that pound will melt off you! (it probably already has).

I am so looking forward to being where your at now, at a healthy weight, sneaking up on your goal, and with good fitness levels! I really want to be able to go running etc, my fitness is far from up to it yet but I'm working on it! I want to be able to run 2 miles without stopping by end of June!

Have a smiley... :)
 
Hey Rachie! I hope everything is going great. I'm looking forward to that post that says "I weighed in this morning at 129!!!" ;) Just a short time from now!
 
Hi everyone! I'm baaack!!! I have missed this place and all you folks! I see all of your tickers have been moving! yay!

Well the conference was good, very interesting. I forgot my darn running shoes though! What an idiot! I did have a comfortable pair of everyday sneakers though so I put my feet to good use and did lots of walking!! It was a mile walk to the convention center so I got 2 miles in a day doing that, then the place was huge so I got lots of extra mileage in daily! I was good and took the stairs everywhere I went. People looked at me strangely because the stairs were long and right next to the escalator but who cares!!! I took some time on one of the days to have a walk and ended up wandering at fast pace for about an hour in the sunshine. So I came back and I am still 131lbs but I am pleased that without the gym I didn't gain! I do feel like I have lost some inches from my belly though, and my boyfriend commented that I look more buff! haha! I am going to measure and am getting back to running and the gym over the weekend :)

Hope you are all doing great - I'm going to visit some diaries now!!

p.s. I updated my ticker to 131lbs - yep, back UP again :( Oh well, I'm working on that!!!
 
never mind. that silly little pound is only 3500 calories. forget about it and concentrate on eating healthy and kicking ass running :) then it will be gone without any fretting
hope you are okay huni -havent seen you for a long time xxx
