My Weighting Place: Not Fat
http://myweightingplace.blogspot.com/2015/03/not-fat.html
Monday, March 23, 2015. Getting ready for bed tonight and Sissy announced that she was fat. That's why she "runs slow". She's "fat". I'm not blind. She's heavy. She will probably always struggle with her weight. She is tall and broad like her mom. She's 9. You can't be 9 and "fat". I was once 9. I put myself on a secret diet with a neighbor girl because we were both "fat". Then she told me that I used to be fat. She's convinced every picture of me at my heaviest is when I was pregnant.). She is not fat.

My Weighting Place: January 2015
http://myweightingplace.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 3, 2015. I'm really good at doing, going, moving, pushing, pursuing, and fixing. I rock a really long "to-do" list. I am relentless when I set my mind to something. I do "busy" really, really, really. I'm a problem solver, goal oriented, task master type of girl. I don't share this to boast,. But rather to give some background on why rest is so hard for me. Schedules an extra rest day and I email him to ask if it's a mistake. (True story! Rest period. WHATTTTTTT? I need to rest more....

My Weighting Place: Black Diamond Sprint Tri
http://myweightingplace.blogspot.com/2014/09/black-diamond-sprint-tri.html
Monday, September 15, 2014. Black Diamond Sprint Tri. I have a new event to add to my "must-do" races! It's the Black Diamond Tri. Ran by AA Sports. Such a great race! Well organized, helpful on course signs, and fantastic post-race food. I've been trying out a Bia watch over the past 2 weeks and used it for me race. I'm still not sure if I love the watch, but here are my splits from the watch report. They are spot on with the race splits. On to the race. Feeling tired and accomplished! The bike course w...

My Weighting Place: September 2014
http://myweightingplace.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 28, 2014. 30 pounds heavier and 30 seconds faster. *Stomach drops* I want to see more improvement. Truth be told, I'm angry with myself. I ran strong yesterday. I'm sore today in a "I worked really hard" sort of way. I left it all on the course. 30 pounds and 30 seconds. I had a new PR yesterday and all I can think about is how much faster I could be if I was skinnier. Today should be a race recap, but that will have to wait. I think about how I could be faster if only. Ran by AA Sports.

My Weighting Place: Not "too big"
http://myweightingplace.blogspot.com/2015/06/not-too-big.html
Monday, June 15, 2015. Hmmmm Where to start? I haven't blogged in nearly 3 months. You know what they say- It's never good when a blogger goes silent. The thing is, it has been good. It's been SO good.in most areas. Still working out. Training for an Olympic Tri- more on that very soon. Started a new job in August. Loving it! Applied for "stupid principal school" (kids aren't excited about it and deemed it "stupid principal school"), was accepted, and start classes this week. I can't wait! On June 19, 20...

My Weighting Place: June 2015
http://myweightingplace.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 16, 2015. Last July I finished my. And decided that I could do more. Sure, it took me 2 hours, but I had FUN. This is, after all, all about having fun. I emailed. And asked if I was crazy. He assured me that it would be a challenge, but doable. What I didn't know at that time was that I'd be heavier and deal with a significant ankle and now foot injury during training. I'm 25 days out from my Olympic tri. Swim: .9 miles (1448 meters). Bike: 25.34 miles. Run: 6.2 miles. I'm doing this. :).

My Weighting Place: October 2014
http://myweightingplace.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 23, 2014. 5 AM is my new normal. I go to bed between 9 and 10 and am up at 5 every.single.morning. Yep, even weekends. The husband goes to work anywhere from 6:40-7:00-not at all. His job is on a day by day basis and I never know when/if he'll need to leave. My work requires many evening activities that make it hard to plan for after school stuff. Drank an extra cup of coffee, and read some blogs. I just didn't WANT to this morning. I'm learning, slowly, to name what it is that I ne...

My Weighting Place: July 2015
http://myweightingplace.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 26, 2015. How'd I gain back half of the weight that I lost? Uhhhhh. I ate too much. Calories in. Calories out. It really is that simple. I was talking with a friend yesterday about losing weight. He was talking about the idea of giving up (whatever your favorite food is) forever. I explained that it wasn't about a giving up. It was about a trade. Yep, a trade. I don't mean a trade like diet coke for regular or thin crust for thick. It's trading your priorities. Completing my Olympic Tri.
