Happy Thursday

First, a little housekeeping.... I’ve had a facelift!
And I love it!!
Special thanks to Hubby Jack for the amazing transformation!!
Obviously, he does great work and is really affordable.
Keep him in mind if you need a little sprucing up!!



So far, Operation Sugar Detox/Diet Reset has been going well. I have not eaten any bread, crackers, cereal bars, cookies, cake, chocolate, candy, etc. and I feel GREAT!! My stomach is flatter than I have ever seen it. I told my hubs that at this rate, I could get into my Miss Me jeans that I haven’t been able to wear in 2 years because of my muffin top!! Woohoo!!



I'm concerned about fueling on my run, however. Usually I use a banana and Honey Stinger waffle or PB toast pre-race. During the run, I fuel with Gu Chomps or Honey Stinger "gummies" I'm thinking about oats, peanut butter, banana, or a sweet potato pre-race and dried fruit, honey packets, applesauce, or cut up Larabars on the run.

And I’ve successfully completed Jillian Michael’s 30 Day Shred for 3 days in a row. Last night was rough because my arms were sore and tired, but I got ‘er done. Thank goodness this is taper week for my Pathwayers in prep for their 10k this Saturday. I put in 3 miles with them Monday night, 2.65 wet, cold miles last night and we’re going to do 2 miles tonight.



Whew!! I’ve been a busy girl!!

Now, let’s go have a terrific day!!

 
Do you watch your sugar and processed food intake?
How do you handle sweet cravings?
Any other sugar-free athletes out there??  How do you fuel your run without gels or "gummies"?

    1. Thank you! I haven't either. I find that I get bored or am not as challenged as much as I would be if I were in a class.
