Latest pictures. There is a little difference. I will keep going. It take a lot to tone several years worth of untone muscles.




Having some mom days! You all know what that is like. Kids and body not wanting to cooperate. But you have to keep pushing. There are a few issues up for discussion though. This Game I have been playing as well as how my half marathon training is going.






The Game. A few more things about this game. You get a meal off during the week and a day off from all rules during the week. One of the basic rules of the eating plan for this game is that you should not be eating any processed foods or adding sugar to anything. You would be surprised what sugar is in when you think it is healthy or OK to eat. I took my meal off on Thursday and you all heard how that went. You would think I would have learned my lesson, right? Well as you can guess I didn't. Here is how it all went down.




On Saturday my husband went to some Hockey games in Detroit with the guys leaving me at home with the kids. Luckily I was able to get my long run in before he left. 7 mile- which by the way I felt awful I am sure because of my messed up day on Thursday and the fact that I was working out with Jillian way more during the week than I should have. Anywho as I am finishing my last half mile, which happens to be up a hill, there are masses of parents, kids, Easter eggs and strollers gathering in the part of the park that I have to go through. I am dodging and running on grass and I just want to yell : GET OUT OF THE WAY PEOPLE I HAVE A HALF MILE TO GO AND I AM TIRED!!!! Of course I didn't but this was what was running through my head.




OK so tired and hungry me gets a call from my partner in this game and we discuss the kids and I going to her house to play and then have dinner. We discuss our dinner options. We thought about having some healthy options and then we settle on, drum roll please....... Steak and Shake! For those of you who like this place you are going good choice and for those of you who don't you are thinking "what are you thinking?" So I looking at the menu and think I may have a grilled chicken and avocado sandwhich- sounds pretty healthy right well it would have been if would have actually gotten it. It just so happens that my partner in this game has a favorite at Steak and Shake and it happens to be mine as well which she is planning on getting. Frisco Melt with cottage cheese and fries. Yumo. Get our meals and head back to feast.




Now let me tell you that the thing that makes the Frisco melt so yummy is the sauce. It is sort of like a creamy french type sauce and it never fails to drip out of the sandwich and then makes the perfect sauce to dip fries into. We ate those sandwiches like it was our last meal. Yummy going down, 30 minutes later not so much. I though the meal off was bad. Ughhhhh. We wanted to curl up in a ball and sleep. On top of that my mouth started to itch and my throat started to feel like it was swelling. Never had that happen before. Needless to say it probably was a good idea that I ran those 7 miles because my meal moved though rather quickly. Have I finally learned the lesson on meals and days off? I think so. I guess we shall see come thing Saturday when we end up at a birthday party.




I want to share with you a little something my partner sent to my husband. Remember trash talk is encouraged in this game. Keeps up the morale of the teams. Here it is




G- gummy worms


I-ice cream


R rice crispy treats


L- Lemon bars


S- slurpiees




R- regular bread


U- ummmm lot and lots of chocolate


L-licorice


E- everything




All the things I want to eat but won't because- GIRLS RULE!!!!




I wish I would have thought of this. By the way the girls are up 17 points after 1 week. The boys are pretty tough now that they have the hang of the game. We shall see what happens after this week.
