My friend Rachel sent me some photos she found online. In 2006, we went to Chicago together. I weighed at the minimum of 250 pounds. Here are two pictures she wanted to share with me:<\/p>\n

It was quite shocking to see. It’s easy to forget how much I used to weigh. Even though I have a blog essentially about losing that weight, being fat isn’t something I give a lot of thought too. I’ve gotten used to my “new” body.<\/p>\n

Anyway, for breakfast this morning, I had my leftover quiche from last night’s dinner and an English muffin.<\/p>\n

Breakfast<\/p><\/div>\n

It was just as delicious the second time!<\/p>\n

I ran at lunch today. I was talking myself out of running all morning. I was tired. I was a bit sore. My glutes were all twitchy last night. I ran yesterday…I came up with all sorts of excuses to NOT run. But in the end, I put my shoes on and got my butt outside.<\/p>\n

One of Michael’s sayings is “the hardest part of working out is putting on your shoes.” Soooo true. Sometimes my heart just isn’t into it. But if I put my shoes on and go outside, I NEVER regret it. Today was no different.<\/p>\n

The sun was out and it was beautiful. I did NOT need my jacket today. I had a fantastic run too. For the first mile I had some heel discomfort but it disappeared after my warm up. I kept a really good pace as I ran and finished with a good time.<\/p>\n

Today’s Stats:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Time: 34:30<\/strong><\/p>\n

Calories Burned: 431<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pace: 8’13”<\/strong><\/p>\n

When I got back, I realized I forgot to take photos. Here’s me all sweaty (gross):<\/p>\n

No jacket! And today I realized it’s time to start packing the sunscreen!<\/p>\n

Lunch was leftover Mac n’ Cheese from the other night. I’m full, tired, happy and ready to go home and relax!<\/p>\n
