Sleep

Lack of sleep has affected my training.  My husband left a month ago, he will be back at Christmas time, but his leaving made the baby girls sad.  Sad is not the right word but I can't think of the right one today.  

I ate a salad, and chicken.  I strength train and do a walking video daily.  I gained weight and now I am heavier than when I started training for the Marathon.

Water Park

Getting a pass to the local water park today.  I know what does that have to do with training for a Marathon?  Well, I don't know but the water looks inviting.  I like to swim.  

Last night I ate pot roast with potatoes.  I will stretch and walk later today.

Walking

I have been walking every evening with children in their double stroller.  I really feel healthier but tired.  My back still hurts but there is really nothing to be done about that.

The DisBoards at www.disboards.com has been a great help with motivation.  I read the boards daily.  

I had pot roast with potatoes and peas today.

Yesterday Arby's, fast food, yum and the worst thing I could eat when I am training.  

My husband is leaving for a few months, I will miss him.  I don't want him to go but his business needs him.  I guess my lack of enthusiasm for training has been because of him leaving.  

The Disney half-marathon seems so far away....

Gloomy

 Well, I am gloomy today.  I don't feel well, I will stretch and work out later.

I ate veggie spaghetti and cake yesterday.  I think my gloom is from eating cake and ice cream  sugars affect moods.  

Walking is fun.

Mother's day

T-bone steak was on the menu yesterday and chocolate brownies with chocolate cake.  It was mother's day. It was also my daughter's second birthday.  She is the reason that I want to find the zipper on the fat suit.  I want to live and have the time to watch her grow up.

My pain is still intense from my tail bone but I pushed through that today with a work out.  

I asked a friend to marathon with me.  I am not sure if she will.  If she does it will be fun.  

I'm Back

I'm back.  My back is still in huge amounts of pain but training will not be stopped by it.  I walked all over the place this week.  And maybe I will find a way to get past the lower back pain.  

I ate pulled pork yesterday and a salad.
