A baby oh my!

A possible pregnancy can put a huge monkey wrench in my training.  I took a pregnancy test and it was positive.  All I have to do is confirm it with the doctors.  I love children, so this was not bad news.  

I have been struggling with my training but I think even when pregnant I can still walk.  So I will keep my training going... to be continued....

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.
