She did it!

Today was a BIG day at our house.  Kayla ran her first 5k this afternoon.  We have been training for it since August and she did fabulous!  She had to stop once at about the 1/2 mile mark to adjust her sock that slid down her heel but other than that she never walked.  It was raining for the first part of the race but we weren't letting that stop us.  She has trained too hard!  She finished in 34:40 and then decided to run the 1 mile fun run and finished in 9:13:)  She didn't want me to run it with her so I let her run it alone.  She LOVED running today and I think we might just have a runner on our hands.  Having a running buddy is fun:)

Food

I have a love/hate relationship with food. I've gotten SO off track with my eating...it happened slowly and now I just can't seem to get back on track!  I'm up like 2 pounds on the scale and it makes me absolutely sick and I feel like a big fat cow!  I've been in that cycle where you overeat and get mad at yourself so you eat something else bad for you to feel better...yeah...that really works!  I don't overeat at one time.  I don't eat big meals.  I snack...all...day....long...and it isn't healthy snacks.  Confession time...I ate THREE packs of pb crackers for breakfast...THREE of them...what in the world??!!  They have absolutely NO nutritional value so of course I was still starving after every single pack.   I'm down, discouraged, depressed,...ugh...I have GOT to snap out of this or the number on the scale is going to creep WAY up and I'm going to hate myself for it!
