Melissa - Vain Triathlete

On Aruba - I went weighing 123.5, I came back at 124.  I ate small breakfasts, small lunches and a few small dinners. The rest was lots of good dinners. I only drank 1 or 2 alcoholic drinks at dinner except for 2 nights where I didn't drink at all. I also shared a shot with Joan, a cosmo with Mel. It was fun!  I only worked out 5 days per week for 45 minutes.  Nothing major. Felt good.  I didn't eat too much junk during the day either but I did dabble. Christmas is this  Saturday and Sunday.  I am  having the Harrington crew over for Chines food this Saturday night. The Caron clan is coming for dinner on Sunday.  I am over flowing with Christmas spirit but I do regret not putting up the Christmas tree. We thought we would need the space but that won't be the case next years. My workouts are going well.  My strength workouts are amazing. They feel much easier and last for 50 minutes. I love what they are doing to my core. I'm noticing smal...

Training season has just begun. I feel great within my workouts. They feel very doable and I can push myself but not to  hard. Just came back from Aruba where I had lots and lots of naps.  I ate wonderful food, shopped till I dropped, and exercised about :45-1:00 5 times per week.  It was so awesome!  I'm currently reading the Shack.  It's really a fiction but someone actually claims the story to be true. It's up to you to believe it or not. Today I ran 45 min. with Maureen and Maria then swam for 45 minutes.  I feel as though all of my ducks are in a row and I will just cruise through this training.  I might eat those words one day but that IS how I feel now.  I'm sure it's naive.
