Dog park

Ha, so once again attempted to take my lil' runt of a pup to the dog park close by and also fit a run in.  She was a little better this time.  She did sniff other dogs, but wont let them sniff her.  She wandered off slightly more than just staying by my side.  One day she'll make friends. Though I do feel bad, she is in an awkward size some puppies are bigger than her and the toy dogs are just too small :( I think she is some sort of hound mix??? No one knows who her mom or dad are.  Her and her brothers were abandoned by mom and on top of it they wouldn't let her eat. Sad.
 So also tried to run, atleast three miles for an easy day. FAIL.  the boy can run and so had to stop like every 1/2 mile but we did make sure i got three miles in even if part of it was walking.  But it really put me in a bad mood because there was a young girl running at least I know she did 3 miles.  I felt like a fraud! I really wish I had a running partner here.  My friend at work we do want to run more during or after work together she knows I have no one else to run with, though she has her fiance who works out with her and her friends here (she has been here almost a year longer than me)  Kinda of funny most of my friends here are not from the Low Country they are all from the north like me! Only boy is from here and don't always get along lol.
 I have less than a week until the Flowertown race and I am scared to even finish a 5k!!!!!!  Need some real encouraging words, I know I have ran this race a bunch of times, Even in my training days I run more than 3 miles.....
 Anywho! I take sundays of as my day I don't want to leave the house besides church day.  Which (on a side note) Preacher mentioned sex and made us all (500+) make paper airplanes to through.  :)
Have a great sunny sunday!!!

Day 1 Meal Plan = Suck

So well today was my first day of my planned meals! Ha! okay so I ate 6-7 times today and was still hungry!!! Also who knew blackbeans take like entire day to make! The ones that are already cooked have a crazy high sodium which I can't consume with this mean plan. I have decided since I'm allowed to have dessert, darn it i'll def be eating it! So I bought skinny cow chocolate ice cream bars and they are yummy yummyy (only 100cals) actually lower than most of the weight watcher ones.

my session with the trainer went well, we went over my "homework" plan which I do when I am not with her. It's pretty intense, we had to up grade it to be more challenging because I'm not too out of shape. I was shaking by the end :) meet again this thursday. So it has been one day for food(I've already made my lunch for tomorrow)

Well I have been doing well I think, i have gone everyday since last wednesday minus Sunday which has always been my one day off. So Day 6 at gym complete :)

UPDATE ON PUPPY:
Baby gate means nothing! She flew over it. lol Put Diaper on her, came home and she ate it! lol
peed on my floor about 5 mins ago, biting me, and now racing around the apt.

Still making beans (1 1/2 hours left) lol

I know i'm only 122lbs but I still love watching the Biggest loser!

Veterans Day

Alright so this really has nothing to do with Veterans day, though, thank you all veterans of our past and our current service men and women!!!!

It has been about two- three months I think since I have moved to charleston, and it has turned into the great time as well as decision I have ever made in my life! Since I have moved here the weather has been great still November and has been in the 80s crazy!!! While home is cold. I have a great job with a forestry technology research facility, where I actually get to use my degree. Still can't get over it.

Since I moved into my parents house feb. my junior year of college I lost all motivation to work out like I used to (almost 6 days a weeks for 4 years) becuase of cross country/ track and then just always at the gym. Then I stopped all together and for me gained a significant amount of weight, I had a (jerk**f) bar manager who told me I have gained noticeable amount of weight (WHAT?!) not right in his position to ever say anything like that to. I used to never eat junk food or sweets and now I can't stop from buying them!

I am now determined to get into better shape than when I was a college athlete. Today I joined a gym and it is like the one i was in back home but the people are more outgoing and open. I think I will really enjoy this, so far ran 3.2 miles walked on incline 10mins. tomorrow i meet with my trainer who will work my butt off and I can't wait!

I also adopted a puppy, her name is Rain the Pain. She is a mix between hound, lab, and pit? we think. I got her from a woman at work who lives in farmland, her neighbors had several unwanted puppies and were going to give them to a kill bound :( nooo. I wanted a dog but a small one because I have a small apartment. I think she'll be big and thick. Right now she attacks everything! and is teething and a pain to house train...... have had her for lil' over a month.... some days are good others I wnant to cry. She eats everything, claws me, bites me. Nothing seems to help at all. I cannot wait until she has all of her shots, it'll be right off to puppy school for the both of us!!!!

Welll all for now the CMAs are on and getting tired!!!
