Introduction Text "Alone we can do so little, together we can do so much." - Helen Keller "Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can" - Arthur Ashe "Diet doesn't mean deprivation. It's all about eating right and making the right choices." ~ Bob (Biggest Loser) 2014 was a darn good year for me. I married Paul (PEHASS2) in a beautiful little ceremony at the farm surrounded by our friends and family. I hit all the goals that I set for myself. Throughout all that, I got to see my children grow and learn from the world around them. Note to self: toddlers and teens aren't that different. Since the wedding and, more notably, my 43rd birthday, I've noticed a weird shift in my mental and physical being. For starters, I've gained back a schwack of weight. Approximately, about 10 pounds depending on the day. I've also noticed that some parts of me are squishier than they were. For some reason, though, I can't make myself care enough to do anything about it for more than a few days/weeks. I really, really need to reset and find my mojo. My ultimate running goal: to run a HM in each of Canada's provinces and territories. Current PB's: 5 kms - 0:29:59 10 kms - 0:58:46 LA Weightloss 10 km - May 31/09 Half Marathon - 2:07:50 May 26/13

Over the next 8 weeks my goals are: Nutritional- Drink 64 ounces a day. Bring vegetables back into my routine. 2-3 a day Track it all. Exercise- Continue running 3 days a week. Practice yoga once a week, or more. Strength train once a week, or more. Build a 56 day streak. ~return to maintenance range (130ish) ~run at LEAST 60 miles a month. ~Keep running Half Marathons - current PB 2:07:50 (updated 05/26/13)

Be dilligent about recording calories in and out on SP. Eat well. Run often. Learn to love exercising again.

I'm originally from Nova Scotia, but I currently reside in Calgary. I've been here since 1997 so I guess it's time to start calling it "home". I have two sons and one daughter. I live with them, my Sparklove PEHASS2, and our three furbabies. (1 cat & 2 dogs)
