I did my strength training last night! And I didn't die of extreme displeasure! Hooray! I switched my 4-mile run to this morning because it was just too damn hot and humid yesterday. I had a pretty good run--still no problems with the Achilles tendon. I've got Pilates at noon, then a 10-mile run tomorrow morning, then strength training on Sunday.
I had a really good eating day yesterday--no binges, no drinking, no unhealthy snacking. I'm hoping for a repeat of that today, but it's going to be a little bit trickier. I'm meeting the girls from my book club around 7pm, and there are always lots of cocktails and lots of appetizers (think spinach dip, chips and guacamole, that kind of thing).
My plan for the day is to eat a sandwich for lunch around 11 (before Pilates), have a banana or a low-calorie bar around 3pm if I'm hungry, then eat a healthy dinner before meeting up with my friends.
We're going to a wedding tomorrow morning at 10:30, followed by a lunch reception. The good thing is that I will have run 10 miles, so I should be able to enjoy the lunch and have a piece of cake relatively guilt-free.
It's Friday!! Jen

Wow
Look at you go! Where do you get the energy? I can't imagine running 10 MILES (16 K) anytime, least of all on a SATURDAY before a WEDDING. I just can't!!! Strength training and Pilates too? On a SUNDAY? You are a poster girl for Fitness Magazine - go girl!!!
Have a wonderful weekend. Stay safe, and for the love of God, get some rest!
Sounds like you are really doing great!! That last 10 pounds is just gonna melt away.
If it were me at the book club meeting I'd just have a cocktail or two and skip the food. But that's just me. LOL
I just want to say that I appreciate the comments you leave for me. I wish I had more time to comment to you more than I do but the baby and life leaves little time for the internet most of the time.
You keep up the good work and soon I'll be following you to the finish line.
Good for you for having such a great day yesterday and so far today. Congrats on the strength training. I know how hard it is to get motivated and do that stuff. You're doing great though, and have fun at your book club and at the wedding tomorrow.
