I'm Back

It's not that I don't want to blog, I just got busy, sick, travel, etc.  I know, no excuses, but what can I say.  I weighed in this morning, and I'm in at 183.9, which puts me down 2 pounds total.  I wouldn't have necessarily thought that I would have dropped that, given my screwy eating habits since I last posted.  Mike and I both had colds in there, and when I get sick, I really don't eat a whole lot.  I'm too busy trying to breathe.  =(


On the positive side, we bought a toaster oven/rotisserie combo and made our first chicken in it Sunday.  I do believe we'll be investing in some EVOO (extra virgin olive oil, for the non-Rachel Ray fans) and some herbs to use on the chickens.  We also just got Hungry Girl's new cookbook.  There are some fan-tas-tic new recipes in there that we'll be trying out.


But I do believe that things will get better from here.  The cookbook and the toaster oven will be big helps. I'm going to take a look at the Fox Cities marathon website and probably sign up for the 5K again.  I think this year, since I should have enough time, I'm going to go for actually jogging the entire thing this year, rather than jogging and walking.  I'd really like to be able to do that, at least once.  I'll browse through iTunes and see if I can find some training things to use for getting my endurance and wind back up.  (Exercise induced asthma is a pain sometimes.)
