This Girl is Losing It: Two to Go

http://thisgirlislosingit.blogspot.com/2011/04/two-to-go.html

Thursday, April 14, 2011. I have two days until my half marathon. I'm super busy, but I'm also trying to relax my mind. I've been packing my street wear (normal human clothing) and also my running gear. I've also been packing for the twins. Oh yeah, a running mommy. That's me! If someone told me a year ago that I would be running a half marathon, I would've peed myself from laughing so hard. Now I'm just peeing myself from nerves. Just kidding. I am feeling my nerves kicking in though. 4 packets of Gu.

This Girl is Losing It: No More Wind, Please

http://thisgirlislosingit.blogspot.com/2011/03/no-more-wind-please.html

Tuesday, March 8, 2011. No More Wind, Please. Yesterday I ran 6 miles with my friend, B, and "windy" doesn't describe it. It was so windy that when it was done, I wiped my faced and took off a few layers of dirt and dust. It was pretty gross, but I felt like a champ. The hills by her house are so steep that they make the hills by mine look like "a walk in the park.". The good news is that I'm no longer intimidated by them. I am however feeling those hills in my left calf. Cant wait to read more. ALL POUN...

This Girl is Losing It: You'd Better Work!

http://thisgirlislosingit.blogspot.com/2010/10/youd-better-work.html

Thursday, October 14, 2010. So I've been out of commission. I've been dealing with a painful leg problem since May, and I just started accepting that it's bothering me more than I was willing to admit. How much have I run since my race in August? Probably about 10 times. What was my longest run since then? Probably 4 miles. How often did I hurt after running? Probably every single time. I went to my family physician. He had X-rays taken. He had an ultrasound done on my entire left leg. He told me to jog ...

This Girl is Losing It: Get Off it!

http://thisgirlislosingit.blogspot.com/2011/01/get-off-it.html

Wednesday, January 5, 2011. I recently saw my doctor, and he told me that I can get off Metformin and Spironolactone! My first reaction wasn't exactly "jumping for joy" though. These two meds have helped me lose weight quickly with eating right and exercise. Now those two things are being taken out of the equation, and I'm super scared. What if I start to gain weight? What if I can't lose the weight I would gain? He said that if I keep up my running and eat right, then I should be okay. I have a very dif...

This Girl is Losing It: More Waiting

http://thisgirlislosingit.blogspot.com/2010/10/more-waiting.html

Monday, October 25, 2010. Food Temptation of the Week: Candy, what else? Oh yeah. maybe all the chili and cornbread you can eat at a cook-off we're going to on Saturday. My "jog" went really well. I had very little to no pain at all on my left leg. This made me very excited because it has been a while since I've felt good. I was supposed to see my chiro on Wednesday, but the building they just moved into isn't ready. Monday: 1 hour walk, 1 hour kickboxing. Tuesday: 1 hour kickboxing, 30 minutes upper body.

This Girl is Losing It: Snow?!?!

http://thisgirlislosingit.blogspot.com/2011/01/snow.html

Monday, January 3, 2011. I woke up at 6 am ready to run. I go outside, and this is what I saw. Okay, so this is an exaggeration. And it's not my yard. 65279;Although it might as well have been. It snows in the valley about every few years, and of course it hits. The same time I've been itching to run. It would've been fine if the ground wasn't too wet. I'm just too clumsy, and I'm sure I would've slipped and fallen flat on my bum. I hate the treadmill, and I'm not allowed to run on it anyway. I here you ...

This Girl is Losing It: Cold + Rain = Me No Run Outside

http://thisgirlislosingit.blogspot.com/2010/12/cold-rain-me-no-run-outside.html

Friday, December 17, 2010. Cold Rain = Me No Run Outside. I'm so proud of myself! I can't believe that I'm posting for the second consecutive day. It's even during the holidays! I admit that I haven't been the best at posting. For the past 3 months, and it can mostly. Be attributed to my inability to being as physically active. To quote Gaston's (Belle's other love interest) sidekick, I've been a little "down in the dumps.". So I put on my running shoes and ran. I can guarantee that it will be. I loved i...

This Girl is Losing It: Ultrasound

http://thisgirlislosingit.blogspot.com/2010/09/ultrasound.html

Tuesday, September 14, 2010. I'm heading to my doctor's office tomorrow for an ultrasound on my left leg. I've been praying that it isn't a bloodclot that's been giving me pain since May. I've also been praying that I get answers and something can be done to get me better. All this has really gotten me down, and I can't wait to start running on Saturday. Hopefully, I'll be running without pain! I wish you all the best! September 15, 2010 at 9:17 AM. I will say a prayer for you! Best regards, Lynn. 35 pou...
