Occupation:
HOUSEWIFE and member of BodySpace for fitness reasons only. Please be aware that I don't provide additional pictures or personal information including my email address.
My dad has worked out since I was young, so I grew up watching him. Towards the end of college, I got bored with my school work and started reading fitness books instead.
Why I Love It:
Regardless of what else is happening in my life, I can always rely on working out. It's the one thing I have control over and will give back to me whatever I've given to it.
How I Stay Motivated:
I got to a point where my own mom told me that I'd become altogether unrecognizable. I remember how bad it felt to realize that I was less than what I could've been.
BB Accomplishments:
To date, I've run one full marathon and nine half marathons.
Forum Signature:
"You have to wonder at times what you're doing out there. Over the years, I've given myself a thousand reasons to keep running, but it always comes back to where it started. It comes down to self-satisfaction and a sense of achievement." -Steve Prefontaine
TO VALUE WHO I AM ON THE INSIDE MORE THAN THE OUTSIDE. DO WORK CREW!
Goal (Long):
To control food rather than letting it control me. To make every mile, rep, and turn count. To be grateful for everything I have. To tear apart and rebuild myself if I become mediocre.
Jeff's one of my best buddies on here...always there when I need another Type A Personality to chat with LOL And if I don't watch out, he's gonna break all my running records :)
Kyle's a genuinely sweet guy and understands what's really important in life. He always brings a smile to my day :) And if he lived closer, we'd be shoulder workout buddies for sure LOL
I've always wanted to log every mile I run throughout the course of a year but have never gotten around to doing so until this year. The following runs were completed without breaks, stimulants, or IVs and apart from any official events, as I'm not interested in organized races. My ultimate...
Haha very good to hear, can't be losing that. Yea thats the perfect term for it, speed cardio haha. Well have a good day and keep eating :-) If I don't talk to you at all this week I hope you have a good one and that nose piercing comes out well!
Would have liked to before the Superbowl Game tonight. But the base is closed except for ppl that really needs to be here. So The Gym is closed. 'll get a good workout tomorrow in though. Wats the Hubby doin?
Oh really? Hmm tha is excellent news then. But i bet its doing to be hard though. It's the least I can do ya know? I mean they've taken care of me for so long I can only do what I can ya know? :-) Haha you do have a point though, they aren't alot girls out there that want to lift but they don't realize how good it is for them! Oh I saw on your pics you wanted to grow ya butt back..hows that going? haha
Well weather here is just cold for the most part rained like hell fri and snow came in on Sat. As for the weight loss thanks not to sure if it was a good loss though.lol Anyway Nice dress in the avi. And I'll always stop by to see how you are.
Thanks I appreciate it! yea I heard that stuff is pretty serious and my dad doesn't realize how serious it is..he thinks he'll still be able to work his normal route and hours. hehe I know im a good one :-) Yea alot of people on here seem to be superficial I'm glad we are part of the better breed haha. I mean its not tough to take time to actually respond. I'm surprised that the girls on here don't talk much..you think they would ya know?
My dad has an autoimmune disease in his lungs and they gotta treat it with steroids and chemo...not a good combination at all. So he'll be fine now but if he didn't go to the hospital when he did, he could have drowned in the blood that was dripping into his lungs that night :-/. That movie sounds very interesting and yea the guys on here have no respect but aren't you glad that i do :-D.
After that I have a 2 hour layover in Atlanta and then another 1.5 hours to Missouri and then 1.5 hour drive home from the airport!!!By the time I get home I feel like going for a run. LOL!!
Lol I thought the geek o meter would be on full alert after that comment but I'm doing a good job of catching myself. They would be definitely gossip on there but here, you can block them like i do haha. it's going to look good so i woouldnt be too worried. the hurt locker? never heard of that, what was it about? Im going to watch the game with my dad is at the hospital so he wont be alone during it.
I think your shoulders are sexy. Remember we are our own worst critics. I'm excited, but, I do not look forward to the 15.5 hour flight. I have a hard enough time sitting down for 30 minutes, LOL
Haha I dont think youll chicken out. I mean if you can get a tattoo I think the nose ring should be no biggie and itll be worth it cuz itll look good. What movie did you see last night? I havent seen a movie in a few months.I wanna see Shutter Island or the one when the angels come back to kill humanity haha I know it sounds weird but it looks kind of good. The history of the bible and religion is very interesting to me. sorry ill turn off the geek o meter. You watching the Superbowl today?
I think shoulders are one othe sexiest parts of a womans body, and legs and eyes, and arms and....... well I guess everypart of a woman's body is sexy. LMAO
