Just checking in so you know I’m still around and kicking. The triathlon is in just under four weeks now. I am sitting on the edge of my seat reading about Rita of The Giggly Bits as she is writing about her first triathlon experience. I’m still finding the swim harder than the running and [...]

First the good news – I finished! The bad news – the swim was really hard. Like, this-close-to-giving-up hard. Let me walk you through… I was totally nervous throughout the day.

(Sixteen laps is the eqiuvalent of 1/4 mile, which is the distance of the swim portion of the triathlon.) When I started training [...]

I have been enjoying my break for the past week. I am enjoying time with myself and my family as I try to sort through some things, but I definitely wanted to check in with you. Saturday will make seven weeks of no weighing/measuring of food or counting calories, though I do admit to still [...]

So at three weeks and one day into Intuitive Eating, I got on the scale for the first time this past Sunday. I was very curious, wasn’t sure what to expect. I had started taking an estrogen supplement about a week before I stopped all my food weighing/measuring and calorie counting. I had read that [...]
