Married for 8 1/2 years, no children unless you count the pug, Dr. Zoidberg. We have moved eight times or so since we have been married. Finally moved back to the Quad Cities and bought a home in Bettendorf. 2012 Challenge got a job working from home. finished a 1/2 marathon in 2.5 hours! I couldn't even run a mile a year ago without stopping. ready to learn how to cook meals and be a homebody while maintaining new body weight and even losing a few pounds while I am at it. I want to learn how to eat good food but low calorie too. not just eating plain ol' chicken, cottage cheese, and rice cakes. that is not living! I am excited to try Toy's egg muffins, making Christines turkey muffins and protein balls :) 2011 I am a road warrior, traveling weekly as an Epic Clarity Report Writer. I work as a consultant helping hospitals implement their electronic medical records. I live in a hotel four days a week and my diet has slowly turned south to where I would eat a Sausage, Egg Cheese McGriddle for breakfast, Jimmy Johns #16 for lunch and a Noodles n Co trio and a pita for dinner. All the while, maintaining what I joked was the dehydration diet. I would drink practically no water and well over 100oz of soda per day. I am a classic example of a yo-yo dieter. I have been working out for many years without any consistency or improvements to show. Even with a personal trainer, I have not seen the full results that I have always dreamed of. Many reasons is that I don't know what I am doing. I take bits and pieces from magazines, word of mouth and try to put it together.

I started feeling a bit weird, like someone who has outstayed their welcome. That's why I haven't journaled as much lately, but I find that I feel much better when I’m here journaling and trying to stay accountable and hopefully a little motivational for others. Do you have some new pics to post anytime soon???? I think I’m gonna take some soon. It will probably be more a testament to maintaining rather than improving, but maintenance is just as important!!!

Nice!!!! I did the same thing yesterday!!! I DID tweak my “ball” recipe to add more protein, but I haven’t tried them yet. I’ll let you know how they turn out (basically just added another scoop of protein powder and adjusted up the water a bit).
