Belly be gone!

and i do!!!  ugh…

i haven’t been blogging.  i haven’t been tracking.  i haven’t been OP.  i don’t know what my problem is…i’ve just gotten so lax!!!

i’m still around - lurking and occasionally commenting.  but i’m having a hard time with self-control and food!  i don’t know why…which sucks because i still have a few more pounds that i want to lose.  i just can’t get with the program…

i don’t have a problem with exercise, though.  i still go every morning.  and twice a week i do weights (tonight was killer). 

i’m thinking of trying triathlons (sprint) next year.  it’s almost like the contagious goals roni was talking about.  i think that seeing improvements in my running has prompted me to try triathlons.  right now, i’m just trying to get used to running and biking.  since i’m not really on a training plan, i’m excited about this and think i can do it!!!  so we’ll see…

i will say that i’m excited about my exercising.  i don’t know why, but i think it’s somewhat empowering for me.  i never thought i’d be doing what i do - running for 30 minutes!  running 10 min miles (yes, i know it’s slow…but it’s not that slow for me!).  doing the weights that i do at the gym.  i just feel really great about myself after working out.  and when i think about how far i’ve come, i feel proud of myself.

i’m gonna give myself until after the new year, and then i need to be better about my eating!!!  and possibly blogging…i think part of it is that i don’t know that anything interesting is going on to talk about!  :(  and i don’t know that you want to read about my workouts.

anyhow…i’m just rambling.  not really sure about what. 

oh…tomorrow is work’s holiday party.  and there’s a white elephant gift exchange.  and i got nuthin for it!!!  seriously - i don’t have anything for it…i need to brainstorm about what to bring for this….
