    of course, that is 2 weeks before the 50 mile race. but what the heck.

    Wow you are amazing! Congrats on getting into the marathon!!!!

    Well, I missed the lottery the last 3 years. You get auto entered on the 4th if they turn you down 3x before that.... But I just enter every year, knowing I am guaranteed a spot after 3 years. I wish they ran Ironman Hawaii like that....

    That's a great strategy. I'm glad they have that option since the game of chance is never fun to play

    I can't do any type of jumping jacks or running without my belly smacking the top of my thighs. It's really embarrassing. Going to talk to a surgeon about a panniculectomy. Three kids and yo-yoing between 140 and 252 a few times wrecked my belly.

    I wear tight leggings and shirts when I do stuff like this because of the fat smacking fat issue. I also only do heavy cardio at home where no one can see me. I sympathize.
    You're doing it somewhere, so way to go! (wanna know a secret? I have way more respect for overweight runners than you'd think. They are putting it out there for people to see that they are trying to do better.)

    +1 Most fitness people fully support other exercisers because they are excited to have more people around them working out! Size means nothing when you're rocking it in an exercise class or on a run

    I have eaten a truly ridiculous amount of thin mints in recent days.
    Also, my girlfriend has a present for me. Is it going to be a real skull this time I wonder? XD

    Update: it is not a skull. Also, I have eaten many more thin mints.

    Your girlfriend sounds really cool. As a previous Anthro major I love the idea of a skull as a gift. And thin mints are delicious!

    Must be the comfort eating. Honestly, I don't know why. It could be comfort eating due to stress also. I have an interview with the company I work for today. It is for a manager position at the clinic where I currently work. Could be a bit of nerves, but with 20 years with them, I hope they know I am the best option.

    I am assuming the interview is done by now. I hope all went well and the stress is off.

    Yes, interview is done now and I can relax a bit. I was told I did well and given a few pointers for the next round of interviews, assuming I get to that. Mostly they are looking for the right fit, I am hoping that the approval of my coworkers at this clinic says something.

    Now my only stressor is that my Jeep was stolen and probably not going to find it.

    OH NO! I'm so sorry to hear about your jeep. I hope you hear back soon on the interview!

    I should not be left unsupervised in Target. I bought 2 boxes of cereal, 2 bags of M&M's, and 3 new shirts. I went for medicine. :grimace:

    This was me at Walmart 2 days ago. Seriously, those stores have mind control powers!

    Yes, but did you actually get the medicine? I always forget the item I went in for.

    You are insane. Good insane, but insane. <3

    I agree about the good insane! I'm thinking I may throw myself into a 10K for May because why the heck not, aside from that race my main focus is prepping for the bikini fitness competition. (I may squeeze in a few smaller races prior to if I don't burn myself out) :)

    You are doing a bikini fitness competition? Good for you! Congratulations!

    Yesm! I am doing a natural Bikini Fitness Competition in October. Slowly learning and getting into the swing of it now. x.x

    The woman whose class I take on Saturday's used to do this and trained someone to do it. Do you have a trainer to help you with this?

    http://www.kwoshow.com/ here is the details!
    I have a nutritionist that I meet with, he is a personal trainer as well. He is also referring me to a posing coach for the last 12 weeks or so. EEEEP!

    Nice! good luck!

    Also, are you getting a spray on tan and fake boobs? That woman on the left in that link has quite the 'defined' breast shape...

    Lol yes to the spray tan but no to the fake boobs, that won't happen until after kidlets :P lol

    So, @Oberon21 - I didn't sign up for DC, but I am running a marathon on Saturday. A trail marathon. Land Between the Lakes in Kentucky.

    It's supposed to rain there every day between now and Saturday.

    Did I mention it's a trail race? And, I don't have trail shoes?

    I may regret this.

    My thought would be to wear shoes that are good but close to their end of life cycle. That way you don't have to worry about ruining a good pair of shoes and can concentrate on the best footing for your steps.
    You don't have to listen to me though, I'm just starting to run 5Ks and know little about long distance running.
    Good luck on your muddy adventure!

    I would think you will do great at the bikini fitness competition from what I have seen of your pictures you are most of the way there already.

    I've eaten like poop the past few days too!

    I definitely ate my share of peanut butter the past few days.
    OMG the first time I read that I missed the like! Say WHAT! read it again whew.
    At this point I would say eat whatever you want.

    Fingers crossed that all will go well and you get the position.
    :'( Sorry about your jeep that really stinks ((hugs))

    Yesterday I could not t=stop thinking about eating chocolate. I had already had my chocolate allotment for the day so I ate a big bowl of strawberries and pretended that there was chocolate on them. Then went to bed.wvz33h2kpkjd.jpg
